Sacramento, Calif. — Jackson Jobe was looking forward to moving his rehab up a level and pitching with Triple-A Toledo.
Mother Nature had other plans.
Tigers manager AJ Hinch said Saturday that Jobe’s rehab start was moved to High-A West Michigan because of weather concerns in Columbus, where the Mud Hens are playing this weekend.
“Yeah, we’re working through some weather issues,” Hinch said. “We never want to miss a day.”
Jobe, working back from Tommy John surgery, is in the final leg of his build-up. He made two starts in A-ball and his last two were with Double-A Erie.
The Tigers haven’t yet discussed a return date, but it’s conceivable he could be ready if he’s needed to fill a void in the rotation after the trade deadline Monday.
