Keith (hamstring) will serve as the designated hitter and bat in the cleanup spot for Saturday's game against the Yankees.
Keith sat out of Friday's contest against the Yankees to recover from lingering soreness in his left hamstring. The 23-year-old appears to be healthy enough to play Saturday, and he will be eased back in as he works as the Tigers' designated hitter. Since the All-Star break, Keith is slashing .234/.280/.330 with seven runs scored, two home runs and six RBI across 100 plate appearances.
