The Detroit Tigers will go without the starting right fielder for at least the next 10 days.
Nomar Mazara has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a left abdominal strain. Reliever Joe Jimenez has been recalled from the taxi squad to take his spot on the roster.
Mazara suffered the injury while taking a swing during the fourth inning of Wednesday’s 6-4 victory over Houston. He was removed for pinch-hitter JaCoby Jones later in the at-bat.
Mazara is hitting .237 with two homers and five RBIs in 38 at-bats. He’s appeared in all 12 games this season.
