Miguel Díaz - Tosses scoreless inning Sunday Diaz served as the opener in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Angels, allowing a hit and a walk in a scoreless inning of work. He struck out one.
Impact Diaz got into a little bit of trouble but managed to extend his scoreless streak to seven appearances since joining Detroit's roster at the beginning of this month. The righty doesn't have a ton of fantasy appeal at the moment, though he could earn a role in the team's 2024 bullpen if he continues to pitch well down the stretch.

Jake Rogers - Swats two homers Sunday Rogers went 2-for-3 with two home runs, a walk and four RBI in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Angels.
Impact Rogers was the engine for the Tigers' offense in this game, hitting a solo shot in the second inning and a three-run blast a frame later. The catcher has hit safely in his last five games, going 9-for-19 (.474) with three homers and five RBI in that span. While it's a short stretch of success, it's some of his best work this season -- he's slashing .220/.289/.444 with 19 homers, 44 RBI, 45 runs scored and one stolen base through 99 contests overall.

Alex Lange - Bounces back for 24th save Lange struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the save in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Angels.
Impact Lange melted down Saturday, allowing three runs in one inning, but ended up with the win in that appearance. He was back to a sharper level of performance Sunday, needing 12 pitches (nine strikes) to retire the bottom of the Angels' lineup in order for the save, his 24th in 29 chances this season. Lange is at a 3.84 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 74:43 K:BB through 61 innings while continuing to hold an edge over Jason Foley for the closer role.
SEPTEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Joey Wentz - Picks up third win Wentz (3-11) allowed three runs on five hits and a walk while striking out seven over 4.1 innings to earn the win Sunday over the Angels.
Impact Wentz worked behind opener Miguel Diaz, who pitched a scoreless first inning. The Tigers' offense did the heavy lifting to establish a lead, powered by two home runs from Jake Rogers, before Wentz ran into some trouble in the fifth and sixth innings. While far from a stellar outing, it was enough for Wentz to earn his first win since July 29. The 25-year-old southpaw has given up 21 runs (18 earned) over 21.1 innings over his last six appearances and now has a 6.63 ERA, 1.68 WHIP and 91:44 K:BB through 97.2 innings overall. He's lined up to make his next appearance on the road in Oakland.

Zach McKinstry - Sitting amid slump McKinstry is out of the lineup Sunday versus the Angels.
Impact Andy Ibanez will start at second base and bat second as Zack Short plays shortstop and hits eighth. McKinstry has slashed just .135/.211/.154 with 17 strikeouts over his last 57 plate appearances dating back to Aug. 30.
SEPTEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Akil Baddoo - Sitting against lefty Baddoo is absent from the lineup Sunday versus the Angels.
Impact Matt Vierling, Parker Meadows and Kerry Carpenter will start across the outfield for the Tigers as they match up against left-hander Reid Detmers. Baddoo has drawn only 10 plate appearances versus southpaws this year.
SEPTEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Miguel Cabrera - Gets breather Sunday Cabrera is not in the lineup Sunday against the Angels.
Impact Javier Baez will take a turn in the DH role while Zack Short plays shortstop. Cabrera went 4-for-9 with two RBI in the first two games of the Tigers' three-game series in Anaheim.
SEPTEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Joey Wentz - Tabbed for bulk-relief role Wentz is slated to work in bulk relief behind Miguel Diaz in Sunday's game against the Angels, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Impact Diaz is expected to work only an inning or two before turning the game over to Wentz, who is essentially making his second straight turn through the rotation. While serving as a traditional starter in his last appearance Tuesday, Wentz took a no-decision while giving up five runs (two earned) on six hits and three walks. The Tigers will be hoping that the opener/bulk pitcher arrangement between Diaz and Wentz yields more favorable results Sunday.
SEPTEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Beau Brieske - Covers two scoreless innings Brieske tossed two scoreless innings of relief in Saturday's extra-inning win over the Angels. He didn't allow any hits or walks and struck out three.
Impact After Sawyer Gipson-Long pitched five effective innings to start the game, Brieske cruised through the seventh and eighth. The righty has worked almost exclusively as a reliever this year, with just one start in 22 appearances. Brieske has been fairly good in the role with a 3.99 ERA, though it's possible he rejoins the rotation mix in 2024 after making 15 starts last year for the Tigers.
SEPTEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Miguel Díaz - Serving as opener Sunday Diaz is listed as the Tigers' probable starting pitcher Sunday against the Dodgers.
Impact The 28-year-old had his contract selected by Detroit when rosters expanded to 28 players Sept. 1, and he's delivered 5.2 scoreless frames in six outings since joining the big club. Joey Wentz is poised to serve as the Tigers' primary pitcher after Diaz works an inning or two.
