Analysis: The 27-year old Boesch hit .240 with 12 home runs and 54 RBIs in 132 games with Detroit last season. Boesch, who hit a pair of grounders and struck out Saturday, was released by the Tigers on Wednesday, and now he's with the team Detroit eliminated in the ALCS.

Analysis: The 27-year old Boesch hit .240 with 12 home runs and 54 RBIs in 132 games with Detroit last season. He was released by the Tigers on Wednesday. New York will be without outfielder Curtis Granderson until at least May due to a broken right forearm. He was hit by a pitch from Toronto's J.A. Happ on Feb. 24.
Mar. 13 10:04 AM PT11:04 AM MT12:04 PM CT1:04 PM ET13:04 ET17:04 GMT1:04 CST10:04 AM MST12:04 PM EST12:34 PM VEN21:04 UAE11:04 AM CT-The Detroit Tigers have released outfielder Brennan Boesch. A team spokesman announced the move on Twitter on Wednesday. The 27-year-old Boesch tweaked an oblique muscle at the start of spring training. He also missed the entire 2011 postseason because of a right thumb injury that required surgery. Detroit also signed Torii Hunter this past offseason to play right field.
Analysis: Boesch hit .240 with 12 home runs in 132 games last year, but was left off the postseason roster. He was in the mix for playing time this season in left field, but Detroit has other players who, like Boesch, hit left-handed. Andy Dirks and Quintin Berry have been competing for time at that position.

Boesch says he hurt himself while swinging Saturday. Manager Jim Leyland said Boesch would not participate Sunday, but he had no other information on a timetable for Boesch's return.
Analysis: The 27-year-old Boesch is in the middle of a crucial spring training camp. He was left off Detroit's postseason roster last year after hitting only .240, and although the Tigers signed him to a $2.3 million deal to avoid arbitration, his spot on the big league club isn't necessarily secure. Boesch is competing for time in left field for the defending AL champions. Andy Dirks and Quintin Berry also are among the candidates to play there.
