Martin is not in the lineup against the left-handed Adalberto Mejia and the Twins on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

The only other time Martin has sat since joining Cleveland was also against Mejia back on Aug. 1. It remains to be seen whether the team intends to platoon their new center fielder or he's just happened to be given off days both times they've faced a lefty so far. Rajai Davis will get the start in his place.

Martin went 1-for-3 with a solo home run Saturday against the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Martin took Felix Pena deep in the sixth inning to record his 11th home run of the season and second with his new club. Since being traded from the Tigers to the Indians on July 31, Martin has gone 4-for-8 with three runs scored and three RBI. Though the move bumped him from batting leadoff to last in the order, Francisco Lindor, Michael Brantley and Jose Ramirez will bat directly after him, which should lead to improved run scoring potential.

Martin is not in the lineup against the Twins on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Martin will be available off the bench for Wednesday's series finale after being traded to the Indians on Tuesday. With left-hander Adalberto Mejia on the mound for Minnesota, Martin will have to until at least Friday to make his debut in Cleveland's lineup.

Martin was traded to the Indians in exchange for Willi Castro on Tuesday, Robert Murray of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Martin should immediately take over in center field for Cleveland with Tyler Naquin (hip) on the 10-day DL and Rajai Davis, who is hitting .256 with a .631 OPS, getting regular playing time. Through 78 games with the Tigers this year, Martin has hit .251/.321/.409 with nine home runs, 29 RBI and seven stolen bases. Though Martin has spent most of the year hitting atop the order in Detroit, he will likely serve in the bottom third of the Indians' lineup with Francisco Lindor, Michael Brantley and Jose Ramirez serving as the club's 1-2-3 hitters. Look for Martin to start against right-handed pitching while Davis draws the assignment versus southpaws.

Martin went 1-for-4 with a run scored in Sunday's 8-1 loss to Cleveland.

EDGE Analysis

Martin finished the weekend series having gone 4-for-13, though he hasn't recorded an RBI since July 1, and his last home run dates back to June 10. The 30-year-old outfielder is slashing .251/.321/.409 with a .731 OPS through 78 games for the Tigers in 2018.

Martin isn't in Wednesday's lineup against the Royals, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Martin hasn't notched a hit over his last three starts, so he'll get a day off to regroup. JaCoby Jones will take over in center field and bat seventh in his absence.

Martin is not in the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Martin returned from the disabled list Friday after dealing with a hamstring issue and started the first two games of the Boston series, so the club appears to be simply easing him back into action by giving him a rest day Sunday. The 30-year-old has posted a respectable .254/.325/.424 slash line this season with nine home runs and seven steals, and he figures to return to the lineup Monday in Kansas City.

Martin (hamstring) was reinstated from the 10-day DL on Friday

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Martin will rejoin the Tigers as the second half of the 2018 season gets underway with a three-game set against the Red Sox. Martin spent three weeks on the DL recovering from a left hamstring injury but appears to be at full health following a trio of contests with Triple-A Toledo while on a rehab assignment. To make room on the active roster, Mikie Mahtook was sent down to the minors.

Martin (hamstring) will start a minor-league rehab assignment Monday and expects to rejoin the Tigers after the All-Star break Friday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Martin is supposed to play three games for Triple-A Toledo as he rehabs from the left hamstring issue, which has plagued him at various points this season. JaCoby Jones has seen the bulk of the time in center field during his absence.

Martin (hamstring) won't be back with the Tigers until after the All-Star break, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Martin's injury initially didn't appear to be too serious, but he'll end up missing around three weeks, as he's set to go on a rehab assignment before returning to Detroit. Jacoby Jones will remain the Tigers' primary center fielder while Martin is out, with Mikie Mahtook taking Jones' left field spot.
