DETROIT TIGERS NEWS

Alex Faedo - Sent back to Triple-A Faedo was optioned to Triple-A Toledo after Tuesday's doubleheader against the A's.

Impact The 26-year-old started Game 2 of the twin bill and allowed only two earned runs over five innings, but he was charged with the loss since Detroit managed only one run. It's not a surprise Faedo is returning to Toledo since he was the 27th man for the doubleheader, but he likely pitched well enough to earn another look in the rotation later this season.

Joey Wentz - Joining big-league roster Wentz was called up from Triple-A Toledo and will start Wednesday against the A's.

Impact The 24-year-old was previously named as the starter for Wednesday, and he was added to the active roster following Tuesday's doubleheader. It'll be Wentz's MLB debut after posting a 4.12 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 26:10 K:BB across 19.2 innings with Toledo to begin 2022.

Willi Castro - Has productive day Tuesday Castro went 5-for-7 with a walk and a run scored across both games of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Athletics.

Impact Castro got the start in left field for Game 1, then shifted over to center in the second game. The 25-year-old used to primarily play in the infield, though he's expanded his defensive versatility, which has helped him earn more playing time. With Akil Baddoo recently demoted to Triple-A, Castro and his .344 batting average may see more outfield run moving forward, though Derek Hill is still the presumptive starter in center, with Robbie Grossman and Austin Meadows in the corners.

Drew Hutchison - DFA'd by Detroit Hutchison was designated for assignment following Tuesday's doubleheader against the A's.

Impact Hutchison delivered a scoreless frame during Game 1 of the twin bill but will now lose his spot on the 40-man roster. He has a 4.60 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 15:12 K:BB across 15.2 innings this year.

Jeimer Candelario - Records three hits in Game 1 Candelario went 3-for-5 with a double and three RBI in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Athletics.

Impact Candelario followed that up with an 0-for-4 effort in the second game, but fantasy managers will welcome the three hits in one day. It's in fact the first three-hit game of the season for the third baseman, who's scuffling a bit with a .206 batting average for the year. Candelario is batting .289 this month, however.

Jonathan Schoop - Goes deep Tuesday Schoop went 2-for-3 with a walk, a solo home run and two runs scored in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Athletics.

Impact Schoop added a single in four at-bats during the second game, but he did his damage in Game 1. The veteran now has two home runs this season and is batting just .157, though at least he recorded three total hits Tuesday, which could get him going a little bit. Schoop batted .278 with 22 home runs a year ago.

Alex Faedo - Looks good but takes loss Faedo (0-1) allowed just two runs on four hits across five innings but took the loss in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Athletics. He walked two and struck ou...

Impact Making his second career start, Faedo once again allowed two runs across five innings. However, the righty improved upon the one strikeout he had in that previous outing last Wednesday. Faedo has so far been used as an extra starter during doubleheaders, though the 26-year-old could push for a more regular rotation spot if he continues to pitch well. He's currently slated to start again versus the Rays on Monday, but the Tigers are also waiting on the returns of Matt Manning (shoulder), Tyler Alexander (elbow) and Casey Mize (elbow) in the next few weeks, so Faedo will likely shift back to Triple-A Toledo at some point.

Impact Skubal allowed only two runs in his last start but didn't get any run support, so he decided to be even stingier Tuesday, which helped him even his record. It was the second time this year that the lefty has tossed at least six scoreless innings, and his ERA is down to a stellar 2.94. Skubal also has 34 strikeouts against just six walks across 33.2 innings, as his breakout seems to be underway. The 25-year-old's next scheduled outing is set for Sunday against the Orioles.
