The Detroit Tigers have placed outfielder Riley Greene on the 10-day injured list with a right hamstring sprain. The star player left Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Guardians after aggravating his hamstring while rounding the bases and getting hit by a pitch. The Tigers, currently second in the American League Central, are facing a tough situation without their key offensive player.
Greene has contributed significantly this season, hitting 16 home runs, driving in 54 runs, and batting .273 in 117 games. He was selected for the MLB All-Star Game for the third year in a row. In response to Greene's injury, the Tigers have called up Corey Julks from Triple-A Toledo. The 30-year-old has also had a productive year, hitting 15 home runs, driving in 54 runs, and batting .273 in 86 games.
