Overview
- Kyle Finnegan felt tightness in his right groin while warming up in the seventh inning against the Mets and exited through the dugout with a trainer.
- A.J. Hinch said there was no immediate update after the game, and Finnegan was scheduled for further evaluation.
- Since arriving from the Nationals at the deadline, Finnegan has thrown 14 1/3 scoreless innings with 19 strikeouts and three walks.
- If he is sidelined, Will Vest plus veterans Tommy Kahnle and Rafael Montero are candidates for expanded late-inning work, with rookie Troy Melton also in the mix.
- The bullpen picture is already shifting with Chris Paddack on bereavement leave and Bailey Horn set for paternity leave, and Detroit is off Thursday before hosting the White Sox on Friday.
