DON KELLY RUMORS & GOSSIP
Tigers' rotation surrounded by question marks without Scherzer
The news that Don Kelly had signed a minor-league contract with the Miami Marlins made him Monday's #1 trending Twitter topic in Detroit.

Don Kelly summoned to on-deck circle while Nick Castellanos went to the bathroom

Opportunity knocks for Don Kelly
KISSIMMEE, Fla. -- Opportunity is knocking for Don Kelly, and the likable Detroit Tigers utility player could be ready to take advantage of it.
Kelly is the most seasoned option to replace Andy Dirks if Detroit manager Brad Ausmus doesn't end up going strictly with right-handed hitter Rajai Davis and shelving the platoon system. Kelly bats left-handed just like Dirks, who is out...
