Torres sparked a rally with a one-out single in the opening inning and scored on Kerry Carpenter’s two-run double. He then reached on an error in the seventh and rode home on Hao-Yu Lee’s go-ahead blast. Torres swatted a two-run homer of his own in the eighth — a 388-foot (103.1 mph EV) opposite-field shot off of Jose Franco — that increased the Tigers’ advantage to 8-3. With his three-hit attack, the 29-year-old infielder is now slashing .250/.382/.330 to go with a pair of homers and nine RBI.

Torres nearly got one in the first, hitting a ball 386 feet off Cole Ragans. It was just a flyout, but the 101-mph exit velocity was his best to date this season, as was the 78.2-mph swing speed. In fact, just one of his 107 swings coming into the night had topped 75 mph, and his average swing speed was down about 2.5 mph from last year. Torres has been getting on base just fine for the Tigers, as he’s walked 12 times and scored 10 runs in 16 games. Still, he needs to show some power if he’s going to be helpful in fantasy leagues.

Wenceel Pérez moves up to the second spot in the order behind rookie sensation Kevin McGonigle and emerging middle-of-the-order bat Colt Keith. Torres has gotten off to a slow start at the dish, batting .216 (11-for-51) with one homer and four RBI through 14 games.

He managed a deep enough sacrifice fly against Garrett Acton to get Jake Rogers in during the seventh inning. Torres is hitting .234/.383/.319 through his first 13 games of the season and is a fringe fantasy starter in 12-team leagues at this point due to the lack of stolen-base upside and ho-hum batting average.

Torres drew a leadoff walk off of Michael King to open the sixth inning and ultimately scored the Tigers’ first run on a two-out RBI single off the bat of Spencer Torkelson. He also worked a walk during the team’s go-ahead rally in the eighth inning, racing around to score on Kevin McGonigle’s two-run single. He’s now 2-for-6 (.333) with four walks and three runs scored through the first two games of the 2026 campaign.

It certainly sounds like a precautionary move by the Tigers with spring training wrapping up. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. It’ll be Spencer Torkelson entering the lineup at DH in his place.

The Brewers’ Brandon Woodruff, the Yankees’ Trent Grisham and Cubs’ Shota Imanaga were the others to accept the QO. Torres would have had to accept quite a bit less in a multiyear deal, especially with the QO hanging over his head, so this was a pretty easy call for him. It’s unclear if this will take the Tigers out of the market for another significant bat. They’re currently set to return every position player from their 2025 club.

The 28-year-old infielder is expected to be fully recovered and ready to go for the start of spring training. What remains to be seen is what uniform he’ll be donning for the 2026 season. Torres had an All-Star campaign in his lone season with the Tigers, slashing .256/.358/.387 with 16 homers, 74 RBI and four swipes in 628 plate appearances. He should have no issues landing a lucrative multi-year deal on the open market this winter.

Torres added that it’s been troubling him for about a month. The surgery shouldn’t have much of an impact on his preparation for 2026. He’ll be seeking a multiyear deal in free agency after taking a one-year contract last winter in order to rebuild his value.

Torres got the Tigers on the board and evened the score at a run apiece with his 402-foot (110.9 mph EV) solo shot off of Joey Cantillo in the third inning. That would be his only hit in five at-bats on the evening. He also started the 10th inning as the extra runner at second base and scored on Spencer Torkelson’s two-run blast. For the season, the All-Star second baseman is slashing .254/.361/.394 with 16 homers and 73 RBI in his first season with the Tigers.

He also singled in the seventh inning. With his two-hit attack, the 28-year-old infielder is now hitting .261/.363/.399 with 15 homers, 66 RBI and four stolen bases on the season.

Torres broke a scoreless affair with his solo shot off J.T. Ginn in the sixth inning. In his first year with the Tigers, the 28-year-old has gone deep 14 times while driving in 61 runs in his 117 games. He’s slowed down since the start of July, but it’d certainly be fair to say that that Torres’ inaugural campaign with Detroit has been a successful one.

The Tigers got things going in the 11th as Andy Ibanez hit a fly ball to right field that advanced Wenceel Perez to third base. Dillon Dingler was then walked intentionally to set up the double play ball and Javier Baez went down on strikes. Jahmai Jones followed with a walk to load the bases, setting up a battle between Torres and Kaleb Ort. After working the count full, Torres took a sweeper low and away to bring in the only run of the ballgame and send the Tigers’ home faithful into a frenzy. He finished the night 2-for-4 and is now hitting .262/.360/.400 with 13 homers, 59 RBI and four stolen bases on the year.

Torres was scratched from the lineup with a strained forearm on Tuesday, but it appears the injury isn’t serious. He’s starting at second base and batting second on Wednesday and should be played as you normally would.

Tigers manager A.J. Hinch told reporters hat he’s hopeful Torres will be able to return to Wednesday’s lineup before adding that he’s been dealing with some forearm tightness for the past couple days. The fact that he hasn’t been sent for any additional imaging is an encouraging sign that the club doesn’t think he’s dealing with anything too serious. It sounds like he’ll be back in a couple days, if not sooner.

Zach McKinstry will take over at second base for Tuesday’s game against the Twins. There should be an update regarding the severity of the issue following the contest, but it sounds like a precautionary decision for the moment. The 28-year-old former top prospect has been outstanding this season in his Tigers debut with a .796 OPS and 13 homers in 101 games so far.

Torres came off the bench as a pinch-hitter during Sunday’s series finale against the Guardians after leaving Saturday’s showdown early with a neck contusion. It doesn’t seem like a serious concern for the 28-year-old second baseman moving forward. He’ll make his first All-Star Game appearance since the 2019 season next week at Truist Park in Atlanta.

Torres will sit out Sunday afternoon’s showdown out of an abundance of caution following an early exit from Saturday’s game with a neck contusion. It’ll be Colt Keith taking over at the keystone in his absence. There doesn’t seem to be a high level of concern for the 28-year-old All-Star second baseman at the moment, so fantasy managers should anticipate him being ready for Monday’s series opener against the Rays.

Torres was elbowed in the neck by Brayan Roccio while Torres was sliding into second base. The 28-year-old should be considered day-to-day for now, but there’s a good chance he could be held out for a day or two as a precaution.

Torres was hit in the face by an elbow while he was sliding into second base. The 28-year-old appeared to be woozy before leaving the contest. It’s likely Torres will be likely be evaluated for concussion, and there should be information about his potential availability before Sunday’s finale against Cleveland.

Torres took J.T. Ginn deep with a runner on during the seventh inning to give the Tigers a 5-0 lead. It was his eighth homer of the 2025 campaign. He also drew a walk, and in his first season with Detroit, he’s now slashing .281/.386/.430. You can do a heck of a lot worse.

Torres had one of the Tigers’ four sac flies today. He’s hitting .281/.380/.424 this season, and he seems like a strong candidate to make the AL All-Star team after a long absence. He was picked for the Midsummer Classic in each of his first two seasons in 2018 and ’19, but he hasn’t gone to one since.

He’s hitting .276 with a .796 OPS and 34 RBI on the year.
