Matt Vierling (back) lands on 10-day injured list

Detroit Tigers outfielder Matt Vierling has been placed on the 10-day injured list with low back soreness.

Fantasy Impact

It's a busy day on the injury front for the Tigers as ace Eduardo Rodriguez was also placed on the IL with a finger injury. The 26-year-old Vierling is hitting .241 with four homers, four stolen bases, and a .649 across 175 trips to the plate. Infielder Tyler Nevin and pitcher Braden Bristo were promoted from Triple-A Toledo in corresponding moves.

Matt Vierling goes deep in Tigers' win over Royals

Vierling had a big night at the plate on Monday, going 3-for-4 with a home run, four RBI, and a run scored to help the Tigers defeat the Royals 8-5.

Fantasy Impact

The outfielder has been struggling at the plate this season, batting just .254 with four home runs and 15 RBI in 40 games, but he showed signs of breaking out of his slump with his performance in this game. Vierling boasts a decent power/speed combination but isn't consistent enough to warrant fantasy rostership.

Matt Vierling connects for home run Wednesday night

Detroit Tigers outfielder Matt Vierling hit a solo home run in the second half of a doubleheader against the Mets on Wednesday night.

Fantasy Impact

Vierling was part of the Tigers' onslaught of Max Scherzer in his return from suspension as the 26-year-old hit his second home run of the season deep into the left-center field bullpen. Vierling began his day with a single, a stolen base, and a run scored as the leadoff man in game one of the twin bill but powered up in the second half. Acquired via trade from the Phillies this winter, Vierling is up to a .281 average with two homers, four stolen bases, and a .749 OPS across 96 trips to the plate with his new club.
