The Detroit Tigers placed second baseman Ian Kinsler on the 10-day disabled list Saturday because of a strained left hamstring.
Outfielder JaCoby Jones was recalled from Triple-A Toledo to fill the roster spot. He started the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the White Sox in center field.
Kinsler sat out five games because of the same injury this month. He has a .239 batting average, four home runs and 11 RBI in 41 games this season.
Also, the Tigers acquired the contract of pitcher Arcenio Leon and Chad Bell was optioned to Toledo. Bell pitched 2 1/3 innings on Friday. Pitcher William Cuevas was designated for assignment.
Leon spent the 2016 season in the Mexican League before signing as minor league free agent last fall.
