As presently scheduled, that is true.

Correct. It was supposed to be two games in Detroit, then two in St. Louis, all on a Monday-through-Thursday.
The Cardinals had all their games rescheduled except for the two in Detroit.
It is possible that, if those two games make a difference towards any playoff positions, they could be rescheduled for September 28, the day after the season ends. The N.L wild card game is October 1, and the A.L. wild card game is October 2, so there is some time for games to be played.
The Tigers play the Brewers today, then have the day off tomorrow.
Then comes five games in Minneapolis, starting with a doubleheader on Friday, and ending on Monday.
After that, the Tigers host the Brewers for two games at Comerica Park.
Then, they go to St. Louis for that doubleheader next Thursday.
That's followed by a weekend series in Chicago against the White Sox.
The Tigers have a Monday off, then host a two-game set against the Royals, followed by a four-game set against the Indians for the final games at Comerica Park this season.
After anther Monday off, the Tigers go to Minneapolis for two games, and the final four games are in Kansas City.

Tomorrow would actually work for both STL and DET to play each other, but the game(s) would need to be at a neutral site (MIL or CHI) because of travel. Obviously that possibility never came to fruition.

The Cardinals had over two weeks off. That's a lot of games to reschedule, including several doubleheaders. So, the decision was made to give them one day off, and that day is today.
