Tigers' JaCoby Jones: Headed for rehab assignment
Jones (face) was sent to Triple-A Toledo on Saturday to begin his rehab assignment, Matthew Mowery of The Oakland Press reports.
Analysis:
Jones had the stitches in his lip removed Friday, clearing the way for him to go on a rehab assignment. The Tigers haven't specified how long the assignment will last, but they want him to get comfortable with minor-league pitching before returning to the big leagues, so it seems likely that it will be at least a few games.
