McCann (hand) got his stitches out and will hit Saturday with the anticipation that he could come off the DL on Tuesday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

This is in line with the original timetable for McCann, but he will have to make it through his hitting and throwing sessions fine before it becomes official. Alex Avila has been surprisingly solid on the whole this season, but he's hitting just .143 with a 48.5 percent strikeout rate over his last 28 at-bats, so McCann may be able to slowly overtake him if he plays well upon his activation.
