Detroit — This is going to take some getting used to.
Instead of Miguel Cabrera (suspended), Victor Martinez (out for the season), J.D. Martinez (traded), Justin Upton (traded) and Alex Avila (traded), the Tigers lineup Saturday night featured four players who started the season in Triple-A, three of them originally signed to minor-league contracts — Alex Presley, Efren Navarro (batting fourth), Jeimer Candalario and Bryan Holaday.
With Justin Verlander traded and Michael Fulmer injured, the new ace of the staff is Jordan Zimmermann.
And things went crooked early for Zimmermann and the transitioning Tigers Saturday.
