Kerry Carpenter of the Detroit Tigers is dealing with a mild hamstring injury, yet positive news indicates he won't need an injured list stint. Manager A.J. Hinch confirmed Carpenter is day-to-day, expressing relief that the tests showed no severe issues. Carpenter felt discomfort during the recent game against the Kansas City Royals, despite a strong performance where he went 3-for-4. With the Tigers' outfield already strained by injuries, including Parker Meadows on the 60-day IL, the team is adapting to keep their competitive edge.
