Tigers optimistic Austin Jackson will return when eligible
by R.J. White | CBSSports.com

Tigers manager Jim Leyland is optimistic that center fielder Austin Jackson, who is on the disabled list with a strained left hamstring, will be able to return May 28, the first day he's eligible to come off the disabled list, MLive.com reports.

"He's doing good," Leyland said. "He should be on time."

Jackson could go on a one- or two-game rehab assignment before returning to the Tigers.

Austin Jackson's injury lands him on DL
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com

It turned out after all Austin Jackson's hamstring injury was more serious than the Tigers let on. The team announced Monday they placed Jackson, who missed Sunday's game against the Indians, on the 15-day disabled list with a pulled right hamstring and recalled prospect Avisail Garcia from Triple-A Toledo, according to MLB.com.

Manager Jim Leyland said Sunday he held Jackson out of the lineup "for precautionary reasons" and considered Jackson a "go" if needed.

Austin Jackson's sore hamstring a minor concern
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com

Tigers outfielder Austin Jackson was held out of Sunday's lineup against the Indians because of soreness in his right hamstring, but it's not a major concern. Manager Jim Leyland sat Jackson as a precaution, per MLB.com.

"He can go," Leyland said, "but it's hard for him to really burn into that extra gear. So I'm just giving him a day off for precautionary reasons."

The Tigers open a series with Houston Monday. Jackson is batting .267 (16 for 60) with one home run, four doubles, four RBI, six walks, 13 runs and 16 strikeouts in his last 15 games.
