The Detroit Tigers received some tough news during their series with the Cleveland Guardians that outfielder Riley Greene would be heading to the IL with a hamstring issue.
MLBTR.com’s Darragh McDonald wrote (about the Greene injury):
“Greene departed yesterdayâs game due to tightness in that hamstring. Itâs unclear how much time he will miss but it seems the club expects him to need at least ten days. Thatâs a blow for the Tigers, as Greene is one of their better players and they are in a tight playoff race.”
As a result of Greene’s injury, the Tigers have selected the contract of 3-year MLB veteran Corey Julks.

The Tigers have been playing really good baseball as of late, and Riley Greene has obviously been a part of the strong offensive showing in recent weeks.
Speaking on Corey Julks, he has not appeared in an MLB game this season.
NBCSports.com’s George Bissell wrote (on 8/12):
“Julks returns to the majors with run-producer Riley Greene hitting the shelf with a hamstring strain. The well-traveled 30-year-old has hit .273/.347/.453 with 15 homers and nine steals in 366 plate appearances for Triple-A Toledo this season. Heâs gotten into 165 games between the Astros and White Sox since 2023.”
Julks, 30, has appeared in parts of three MLB seasons (from 2023 to 2025).
His last MLB stint came with the Chicago White Sox, where he appeared in six games in 2025.
