Left-hander Kyle Ryan will be called up from Triple-A Toledo to make the start, but that start is not set in stone as Ryan might be unable to make it to the west coast in time for today's first pitch, scheduled for 3:35 p.m. Detroit time.
"We don't know if he'll make it here in time," Ausmus said. "If he'll be here at the beginning of the game or if he would have to rush so much that it would even be worth him trying to start the game."
Ausmus said the Tigers anticipate Ryan will be in uniform by the game time but "It's a small window" and couldn't guarantee the starting nod.
"I don't know if he'll be rushing or how much sleep he got, he's obviously going to wake up early," Ausmus said.
After missing out on a bullpen spot this spring, Ryan is 0-5 with a 4.67 ERA in Toledo this year. The other options to start, Ausmus said, would be "someone in the bullpen."
