J.D. Martinez is back on the active roster, but he’s not in the Tigers lineup just yet. Essentially, the plan remains to get Martinezback into the lineup Thursday, but Mike Pelfrey’s back injury led to him returning a day early. Mike Aviles gets the start in right field against Chris Sale, who barring anything else crazy will pitch tonight.
The White Sox recalled J.B. Shuck from Triple-A Charlotte with Charlie Tilson placed on the 15-day DL, but Adam Eaton gets the start in center field, with former Tiger Avisail Garcia in right against Michael Fulmer after hitting two home runs in the later innings Tuesday night.
