Torres isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Pittsburgh.
Torres will miss a third straight start Saturday as the Tigers continue to limit his reps before he enters free agency this winter. His absence will allow Eduardo Valencia to serve as the designated hitter while batting fourth.

Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Out of lineup again Friday
Rotowire
Torres is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Pirates.
It's the second game in a row and the ninth time this month that Torres has been absent from the lineup. The 29-year-old is an impending free agent and the Tigers have been eliminated from postseason contention, so Torres could continue to see limited reps in the final weekend of the regular season. Detroit has Hao-Yu Lee at second base and Eduardo Valencia at designated hitter Friday.

Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Sitting again Sunday
Rotowire
Torres is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.
It's the second straight game on the bench for Torres, who is batting .333 (9-for-27) with three walks, a double, one RBI and nine runs in his past seven contests. Hao-Yu Lee will man the keystone while Colt Keith handles third base, freeing up first base for Spencer Torkelson.

Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Productive in Friday's doubleheader
Rotowire
Torres went 4-for-9 with a walk and four runs scored across both games of Friday's doubleheader against the Guardians.
Torres batted leadoff in both games and recorded two hits in both contests as well. The veteran served as the DH in the matinee before sliding over to second base in the nightcap. Despite continuing to produce at the plate, Torres has seen his playing time reduced recently, with youngster Hao-Yu Lee (shin) seeing more time at the keystone for the 64-77 Tigers. That trend should continue with Detroit looking unlikely for a playoff spot.

Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Idle for series finale
Rotowire
Torres is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.
Torres started in each of the Tigers' last three games and went 6-for-14 with six runs scored in those contests, but he'll retreat to the bench for the series finale. The veteran infielder is likely to handle more of a part-time role over the final few weeks of the season while the Tigers open up more playing time for rookies Hao-Yu Lee and John Peck.

Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Tallies two more hits Saturday
Rotowire
Torres went 2-for-5 with two runs scored in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Guardians.
That's now three straight two-hit games for Torres, who accomplished the feat twice during Friday's doubleheader against Cleveland. Hao-Yu Lee (lower leg) started Saturday after leaving the second game early Friday, and his presence figures to cut into Torres' role down the stretch. However, the veteran infielder served as the DH on Saturday, and he could see more time there as a way to keep his bat in the lineup while still getting Lee valuable developmental action in the field.

Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Playing time could be cut
Rotowire
The Tigers could reduce Torres' playing time down the stretch, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
John Peck has been called up and will be given ample playing time at shortstop. That will push Kevin McGonigle to third base most days and could result in Hao-Yu Lee seeing the lion's share of reps at second base. Torres has been productive this season when healthy, slashing .261/.364/.383. However, he's an impending free agent and the Tigers, with the playoffs looking like a long shot, want to give younger players a longer look. Torres is starting Monday's game in Minnesota at second base and is batting leadoff.
Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Retreating to bench Monday
Rotowire
Torres is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays.
Detroit will give Torres a breather after he had started every game dating back to July 28 and slashed .247/.330/.412 with four home runs, 17 RBI and 16 runs over a stretch of 23 contests. Hao-Yu Lee will take Torres' spot in the infield, covering second base while slotting in as the Tigers' No. 2 hitter.

Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Three hits against ChiSox
Rotowire
Torres went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the White Sox.
The second baseman did his job setting the table, but the heart of Detroit's order couldn't take advantage. Torres has three multi-hit efforts in his last four games, and through 13 contests in August he's batting .288 (15-for-52) with three homers, 10 RBI and 11 runs.

Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Homers in loss Wednesday
Rotowire
Torres went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-4 loss to the Guardians.
Torres was the only Detroit player with multiple hits and he also delivered his eighth home run of the season in the third inning, which gave the Tigers a short-lived 3-2 lead. The veteran infielder batted leadoff for the first time since Aug. 2, with Kevin McGonigle sliding down from first to third in the lineup against lefty Foster Griffin. Whether he's batting leadoff or not, Torres should regularly occupy a spot near the top of Detroit's order most days, and he should remain a steady if not spectacular fantasy performer.

Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Launches homer in win
Rotowire
Torres went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 8-0 win over the Mariners.
Torres has been good to start August, going 4-for-12 with two homers, six RBI and four walks over his last three games. The second baseman has hit .224 (11-for-49) over 13 games since he returned from a month-long absence due to an oblique strain. For the year, Torres is batting .267 with a .794 OPS, seven homers, 29 RBI, 36 runs scored, eight doubles and no stolen bases over 56 contests.

Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Active in easy win Sunday
Rotowire
Torres went 1-for-2 with four walks, two RBI and three runs scored in Sunday's 11-0 win over the Athletics.
Torres was on base regularly Sunday as he set a new season high in walks. The veteran second baseman put together the strong performance on the heels of hitting his sixth home run of the season Saturday. Torres is a steady offensive contributor with a good eye at the plate, and his current .389 on-base percentage would represent a new career best. His ability to get on base at a good clip should allow him to score plenty of runs moving forward and elevate his overall fantasy value.

Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Homers in Saturday's win
Rotowire
Torres went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Saturday's 8-6 win over the Athletics.
Torres has two homers and seven RBI over his last four games. The second baseman put the Tigers up 4-2 when he went deep in the fifth inning Saturday. He's now batting .266 with a .775 OPS, six homers, 25 RBI, 31 runs scored, eight doubles and no stolen bases over 54 contests this season.
Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Goes deep, drives in five in rout
Rotowire
Torres went 2-for-5 with a double, a home run and five total RBI in Tuesday's 14-0 win over the Orioles.
Torres easily set a new season high in RBI as he helped pace a Detroit offensive explosion. The veteran infielder's previous season best in RBI was two, and his home run was his first since June 11. Torres did miss about a month of action due to an oblique strain, and Tuesday's effort was his best since returning from the injured list last week.

Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Left out of starting nine Monday
Rotowire
Torres is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Orioles.
The Tigers have been careful not to overexert Torres since he rejoined the big club last Monday following a month-long stint on the injured list due to an oblique strain. He'll sit for the second time since being activated, and the Tigers have also deployed him at designated hitter in two of his first six starts following his return. Detroit will go with Riley Greene in the DH spot Monday, while Hao-Yu Lee steps in at second base.
