The Tigers replaced injured Magglio Ordonez on their roster for the American League Championship Series with Delmon Young, who was originally left off the roster while he dealt with a strained left oblique.
It was the second major injury in three days for the Tigers, who lost Young to the oblique injury on a swing in Game 5 of their AL Division Series win over the Yankees Thursday night. That injury was expected to keep him out for the entire series, if not the rest of the postseason. The fact that the Tigers returned him to the roster raised some hope that he might be able to at least pinch-hit in a game.
Ordonez was diagnosed on Sunday with a broken right ankle, a season-ending injury. He told Venezuelan journalist Alfredo Villasmil he suffered the injury during batting practice prior to Game 1 of the ALCS on Saturday and tried to play through it before leaving the game. Doctors examined him after that and found the fracture in the same area where he broke his ankle last year.
The Tigers were out of healthy position players who had still been playing somewhere to stay fresh for a possible postseason replacement. The one player who had, infielder Danny Worth, made the roster in Young's place prior to the ALCS, but Young was still eligible as an injury replacement.
By rule, teams are allowed to replace an injured player on their roster in the middle of a postseason series, but the player replaced is then ineligible for the next series should that team advance. The extent of Ordonez's injury makes that a moot point for the Tigers.

Carlos Guillen remains in Florida to work out in instructional league games while he recovers from a strained right calf he suffered in mid-September. The Tigers could be able to add him as a pinch-hitter for the World Series, should they advance, but he isn't ready yet.
Ryan Raburn played left field in Young's place on Saturday, while Miguel Cabrera and Victor Martinez moved up in the batting order to the third and fourth spots, respectively. How the Tigers fill right field in Ordonez's absence remains to be seen for Game 2 on Monday afternoon.
In the end, Young was the best option the Tigers had for replacing their injured right fielder. In fact, he was tentatively in the starting lineup for Monday's Game 2.

Rookies
This is no slight to the golfers; it has more to do with how the developmental-level “mini tours” — the ones pro golfers play before they get to the PGA level — have changed over the years. Now in almost every aspect they mimic the PGA Tour. So we already know what it feels like to travel to a new city every week, play Pro-Ams, and then grind it out in a tournament Thursday through Sunday.
I can admit that there have been some huge advances in equipment over the last few decades that in turn have helped players achieve some amazing feats. The evolution of the driver and the golf ball are two of the biggest changes. We grew up with this new technology, so we haven’t been forced to change years of habits and make a big equipment switch.
Unlike several decades ago, rookies arrive to the PGA Tour with a supporting cast of sports psychologists, swing coaches, and other people working behind the scenes. We’ve had this network of psychological and emotional support in place for years and we know these people are as important to our games as our golf skills.
Don’t get me wrong. I love seeing Tiger and other PGA veterans do amazing things on the course. They have the kind of experience that I just can’t have at 26 years old. Still, in more ways than one I think rookies have made for a more exciting year on tour. You can’t count on any one player winning. But when a young rookie does win, you can pretty much count on a seeing dramatic finish

Conduct as many flexibility exercises as possible. Basketball is a game of fluid and intricate movements. In order to execute those movements correctly a basketball player must be as flexible as possible.
Understand body angles and positioning. Basketball is much more than who can jump the highest or run the fastest. It is a sport based on besting the other players on the court by whatever means necessary within the rules. If a player understands how to gain proper body position for a shot, on defense or a rebound, they can best a more physically talented player.
Realize where the other players are on the court at all times. Many times a player will concentrate only on their responsibilities and ignore what the other players on the court are doing. A player that is aware of the entire court becomes a better player. Basketball is an intricate combination of a team and individual sport. The good players learn to balance both when playing the sport.
Work on improving your overall basketball skills with both hands. Often a player will only use her dominant hand to dribble and score the basketball. This essentially reduces her arsenal by half if she doesn't use both hands efficiently in basketball.
