For the past two days, callers of 97.1 The Ticket have tried to make lineup and position changes for the Detroit Tigers.

Now it looks like some Tigers fans got their wish.

Justin Upton, who has been playing left field for the Tigers since the start of the season, will get his first start in center field. Putting Upton in center makes room for newly called up left fielder Steven Moya.

Upton is hitting .221 with 2 home runs and 9 RBI with a .239 OBP will bat sixth.

Do you think that Upton should get more starts in center?
