Probably in the same boat as RP Luis Marte (and, for that matter, Jacob Turner): A serious stretch to make the playoff roster. Worth has started one game since June; mostly this month, he’s entered games to play second base, a position which doesn’t appear to be as pressing of a need in the postseason with the emergence of Ramon Santiago. The Tigers have better right-handed-hitting options off the bench, like Ryan Raburn and Brandon Inge, and Detroit should have superior pinch-running options, too.
