Jordan Zimmermann Passes Concussion Protocol
7 years agoDetroit Tigers starting pitcher Jordan Zimmermann had a scary moment on Wednesday after taking a line drive from Jason Kipnis to the jaw. Zimmermann experienced bruising in the area but did not suffer any broken bones. Most importantly, Zimmermann passed the concussion protocol and was in good spirits later in the day. According to club sources, he will be "good to go" for his next scheduled start. If he should miss any time, lefty Daniel Norris would be the most likely replacement. Norris was moved to the bullpen Sunday but has spent most of his career as a starter.
