7 years agoDetroit Tigers starting pitcher Jordan Zimmermann (jaw) took a Jason Kipnis line drive to the face in his last trip to the mound on April11 , but he's set to toe the rubber again on Thursday after suffering no major structural damage and passing the team's concussion protocol. The incident gave Zim a scare, but it resulted only in a bruised right jaw. Fantasy owners shouldn't bank on any major production out of Zimmermann on Thursday as he squares off with the Orioles. Zim is off to a rough start with a 8.18 ERA and just 11 strikeouts. Meanwhile, current Baltimore hitters are a combined .273 with nine home runs off the veteran righty.--Tyler Germain - RotoBaller
