Tigers scouting Crosby for possible start: Tigers starter Doug Fister had to be placed on the disabled list on Saturday after his start against the Red Sox due to a left costochondral strain and Detroit manager Jim Leyland needs to find a replacement to take the hill on Friday at the White Sox. Duane Below is one in-house candidate but the Tigers are also going to look at Casey Crosby and Andrew Oliver in the minors, reports MLive.com Sunday. Oliver will pitch for Triple-A Toledo on Sunday and Crosby on Monday. The Tigers will send scouts to watch them. "I have a guy looking at Oliver tonight and I’ll look at Crosby myself tomorrow, but there’s no information," Leyland said. "I have no idea. None." (Updated 04/08/2012)

Fantasy Analysis
The 23-year-old Crosby has never pitched in the majors and lost out on the rotation competition this spring. He went 9-7 with a 4.10 ERA over 25 starts at Double-A Erie last year. If Crosby impresses for Toledo Monday, he could be called upon for a spot start or two. He won't remain in the majors for long, though, if he comes up at all. Crosby has just low-end Fantasy value at this time. (Updated 04/08/2012).
