Tigers' Wenceel Perez: Drives in runs Tuesday
Wenceel Perez went 1-for-2 with two walks, a double and two RBI in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Rays.Perez had the game's key hit, delivering a ground-rule double in the bottom of the fifth inning that plated both Detroit runs. The 24-year-old rookie returned from the injured list on Sept. 12 after missing about a month due to an oblique strain, and he's seemingly settled back in as the team's regular right fielder in the middle of a playoff race. Like many young players, Perez has had some ups and downs during his debut campaign, though he's flashed signs of promise for future seasons.

Tigers' Wenceel Perez: Could miss rest of season
Detroit Tigers manager A.J. Hinch acknowledged Saturday that Wenceel Perez is uncertain to play again this season after landing on the 10-day injured list with a left oblique strain, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports. "I'm just bummed for him," Hinch said of Perez. "I don't know how long it's going to be or what we can salvage from the season. We'll do our best to get him healthy and hopefully get him back in some games before the end of the year."While Detroit hasn't revealed the severity of the left oblique strain Perez suffered in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Giants, the outfielder might be dealing with a Grade 2 or 3 injury, given that the Tigers are anticipating him being out for well beyond the minimum 10 days. Akil Baddoo was called up from Triple-A Toledo on Saturday and will be making his second straight start in the outfield in Sunday's series finale in San Francisco, but Zach McKinstry and Ryan Vilade are also candidates to see more playing time in the corner outfield while Perez is on the shelf. Before suffering the injury, Perez's production had been slowing down lately, but the rookie has still turned in decent fantasy statistics (.242 average, nine home runs, nine stolen bases, 49 runs and 32 RBI) through his first 97 big-league games.
