Jacob Turner, is set to make his 2012 debut for the Tigers on June 21 against his hometown St. Louis Cardinals.
A former first round pick, Turner was a favorite to make the Opening Day roster, but missed the beginning of the season with a "dead-arm period."
After being drafted out of high school, the big (6-5, 210) righty moved quickly through the minors and earned a spot start for the Tigers last July, then two more in September (0-1, 8.53 in 12 1/3 innings).
This season, the 21-year-old Turner has split time between Class A Lakeland (1-2, 1.66 over four starts) and Class AAA Toledo (2-1, 3.43 in seven starts). His peripheral numbers have been less than inspiring. His K ratio in AAA sits at just 5.8/9, while his walk rate is at 4/9.

I did not see many positives with Warren based on his stats -- and he's a fly baller with temps expected to be near 143 today in NY.

Sam Deduno of the Twins makes his first MLB start at Texas.
The right-hander went 1-2 with a 2.14 ERA and .185 BAA in nine starts for Triple-A Rochester. He posted a 3.18 ERA without a record in six major league appearances for Colorado and San Diego over the past two seasons.
Shoulder and elbow injuries set him back in previous seasons, and the 29-year old has a high 80's to low 90's fastball with a solid ground ball profile.
