Player Notes

August 9, 2005
Chris Shelton didn't start for the Tigers Monday because he's been hitless in four straight games and six out of seven, according to the Detroit Free Press. "He's going to the ball too fast," manager Alan Trammell said. "He's not recognizing the pitch and then going to the ball. But he's one of our few hitters who still gets walks."
