Vierling was productive from the leadoff spot, contributing the two runs and also his second stolen base of the season. The outfielder has played in 11 of the team's first 13 games, with left-handed hitters Kerry Carpenter and Akil Baddoo also in the mix with Austin Meadows (personal) out. Vierling isn't a great fantasy asset at the moment, but he does get a boost from batting first, which he's done in three of his last five starts.

Vierling is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Vierling will sit for just the second time in the Tigers' first nine games of the season, opening up a spot in the outfield for the newly recalled Akil Baddoo. Though Vierling appeared to be viewed as a short-side platoon option to begin the season and benefited from the Tigers facing a lefty-heavy schedule early on, he should have a chance to play regularly against right-handers moving forward in the wake of Austin Meadows being placed on the 10-day injured list due to anxiety. Vierling has been one of the early standouts for the 2-6 Tigers, batting .286 with two extra-base hits and a stolen base through his first 30 plate appearances.

Vierling is starting in right field and batting first in Sunday's game against the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

With Tampa Bay starting lefty Jeffrey Springs, Vierling picks up the start with Kerry Carpenter heading to the bench. It looks like a straight platoon between the two at the moment, as Vierling has seen two starts in the early going, both against southpaws. That caps his season-long value a bit, though he's a sneaky value option in daily contests due to his spot atop the batting order.

Vierling is starting in right field and batting leadoff for the Tigers in Thursday's opener versus the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Much of Vierling's playing time, at least initially, will probably come against lefties, and he's at the top of the batting order versus Shane McClanahan. The Tigers are also going with the right-handed hitting Ryan Kreidler at third base.
