Gallo will sit against lefty Joey Wentz and the Tigers on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Gallo has gone 3-for-10 with two doubles and two walks since returning from a hamstring injury. He's made just three starts against southpaws all season, so it's no surprise to see him hit the bench Saturday. Willi Castro will get the start in left field.

Gallo was placed on the 10-day injured list with a strained hamstring Saturday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gallo has largely looked like the good version of himself this season, with patience and power getting him to a 121 wRC+ despite his .188 average and 37.6 percent strikeout rate. He's also battled multiple injuries, however, as this is already his second trip to the injured list following a brief absence due to a right intercostal strain in April. Kyle Garlick was recalled to take his place on the roster.

Gallo (hamstring) may require a stint on the 10-day injured list, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gallo was scratched Friday with tightness in his hamstring, and the outfielder has dealt with issues in that regard over the past few weeks. If a stint on the IL is required, Gleeman notes that Matt Wallner would be the most likely replacement for Gallo. Fantasy GMs should be prepared to make a roster move if/when Gallo does hit the shelf.
