Tigers 2B Torres taking a break from swinging a bat as he works to return from left oblique strain

Torres said his left oblique strain is not fully healed and he will take four days off before resuming swings Tuesday.

  • On Sunday, Detroit Tigers second baseman Gleyber Torres announced he is pausing batting practice to rest his left oblique, noting the injury has not fully healed.
  • The 29-year-old sustained the strain during a May 2 game against Texas and was placed on the 10-day injured list two days later on May 4.
  • Manager A.J. Hinch emphasized the impact, stating "everything changes when you lose someone of Gleyber's presence," as the Tigers have lost 16 of 18 games since the injury.
  • Taking four days off from swinging, Torres plans to resume hitting on Tuesday before the Los Angeles Angels game at Comerica Park.
  • If Torres avoids further setbacks during his return swing, a rehab assignment could come soon, though no specific timeline for his full return has been determined.
