De Aza went 2-for-4 with two doubles, two RBIs, a run and was hit by a pitch in Thursday's Game 2 of the ALDS against Detroit. De Aza stayed in the game after being hit with a pitch by Max Scherzer pitch in his foot. Initially, De Aza was tender on the foot but he walked it off. The left-hander De Aza is the likely candidate to start again in Game 2, but he will likely sit in favor of Delmon Young in Game 3 against David Price.
