The Tigers (66-50) start a three-game series with the Los Angeles Angels (55-60) at 7:10 p.m.
Greene, mired in a slump, has batted sixth only once in his career -- his MLB debut in 2022.
Catcher Jake Rogers; outfielders Matt Vierling and Jahmai Jones; and infielder Andy Ibanez will be available off the bench. The full lineup is below.
Ace lefty Tarik Skubal (11-3, 2.18 ERA) will start for the Tigers against veteran right-hander Kyle Hendricks (6-8, 4.59).
Skubal struck out 10 through six shutout innings before giving up three runs in the seventh in his last start on Aug. 2 at Philadelphia .
