In his pregame press conference on Friday, Jim Leyland stated that Brad Eldred will be his everyday designated hitter, "as long as he's hitting." Eldred had been putting up some eye-popping numbers at Triple-A, including 13 HR and 35 RBI in just 20 games. He's struggled in his previous chances at the major league level, but looks like he'll be given every opportunity to succeed and add some much needed power to the Tigers lineup.
