Maybin (quad) is back in the lineup Saturday against the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
Maybin missed a pair of games Thursday and Friday after tweaking his quad in Wednesday's loss to the White Sox, but the ailment never appeared to be anything serious. The veteran will return to his usual spot in center field Saturday, and he'll bat second in the order against Kansas City's Edinson Volquez.

Maybin (quad) remains out of the lineup Friday against the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
He was testing his quad on the field prior to the game, and seemed to be moving OK, taking short and long strides, but he will need at least another day of rest. Andrew Romine will get a rare start in center field, hitting ninth Friday.

Maybin (wrist) is expected to return to the lineup Friday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per manager Brad Ausmus, Maybin received an anti-inflammatory shot in his wrist Wednesday after he was held out of the lineup for a second straight game while dealing with some soreness. Detroit has an off-day Thursday, so it appears as though there's a chance Maybin will be able to return to the lineup without missing any more time.

Maybin is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
This is the second consectuive game that Maybin is not starting. Although yesterday's day off was planned, the center fielder is reportedly dealing with another bout of soreness in the wrist that he injured during spring training, which could be the reason he's being held out of Wednesday's game. It's unclear how severe the ailment is or if he'll miss more time, but Maybin was able to enter Tuesday's matchup as a pinch runner and then stay in to play center field for an inning, so it seems like he could play through the issue if he needed to. More details on this development should come forward as the week rolls on, but this leaves his status for Friday's game against the Yankees in question.
