James McCann is still under the weather, so Jarrod Saltalamacchia gets the start behind the plate. With Victor Martinez out, J.D. Martinez gets a game at DH, with Nate Schierholtz starting in right.
The Cardinals sent a pretty good squad for the trip, including Matt Holliday, so it should be a decent matchup for MLB Network and Fox Sports Detroit.
