Tigers' Jose Iglesias likely out until Tuesday with groin injury

The Detroit Tigers will have to play without their starting shortstop for at least one more game.

Jose Iglesias has been out of the lineup since Thursday, when he was pulled in the eighth inning against the Chicago White Sox after experiencing some groin discomfort.

Given his history on the disabled list, the 25-year-old is understandably taking it slow with the season in its infancy.

Iglesias missed the entire 2014 season with stress fractures in both legs after coming over from the Boston Red Sox in 2013.

The shortstop has been one of the Tigers' most consistent hitters this season, owning a .349/.400/.482 slash line through 26 games.
