Moved to 60-day IL The Tigers recalled Foley (shoulder) from Triple-A Toledo on Wednesday and placed him on the 60-day injured list.
Impact Foley has been on the Triple-A injured list since mid-April due to a shoulder strain, and he underwent season-ending surgery in May to address the issue. He'll now join the major-league 60-day IL in order to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for Sawyer Gipson-Long, who was activated from the injured list to start Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

Tigers RHP Jason Foley has season-ending surgery after leading team, ranking 5th in AL with 28 saves
Detroit Tigers right-hander Jason Foley has had season-ending shoulder surgeryMAY 13 • Associated Press
Season-ending surgery needed Foley underwent season-ending shoulder surgery, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.
Impact Foley got 28 saves for the Tigers last year but didn't make the team out of spring training. He was effective at Triple-A prior to his injury, tossing 6.2 scoreless innings with nine strikeouts and zero walks across five appearances. It's unclear what specific shoulder surgery Foley needed or if he'll be healthy for spring training.

To Triple-A IL with shoulder strain Foley was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Toledo on Thursday with a right shoulder strain, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.
Impact Foley struck out nine and permitted just one hit over 6.2 scoreless innings in his first five appearances with Toledo, but he hadn't pitched in several days and now it's been revealed why. It's not clear how long he might be sidelined, but the former Tigers closer will not be an option for the big club for a while.

Sent to minors by Detroit The Tigers optioned Foley to Triple-A Toledo on Wednesday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Impact Foley allowed five runs over 7.1 innings during Grapefruit League play but also had a 10:0 K:BB. The 29-year-old led the Tigers with 28 saves last season and had seemed to be firmly in the picture to close heading into 2025, but Detroit will give him time in the minors first to sharpen up. Beau Brieske, Tyler Holton, Tommy Kahnle and Will Vest are among the candidates to see save chances for the Tigers in what looks like a murky situation for fantasy.
MARCH 26 • ROTOWIRE
Struggling this spring Through five Grapefruit League appearances, Foley has allowed five runs on eight hits across 4.1 innings.
Impact Foley was solid for the Tigers in 2024, posting a 3.15 ERA and 1.18 during the regular season and leading the team with 28 saves, so the righty should have a little leeway despite his spring struggles. He still looks like the top candidate for saves in Detroit to start the year, though newcomer Tommy Kahnle is expected to be in the mix along with holdover Tyler Holton, and possibly Will Vest and Beau Brieske as well. Foley will likely need a strong start to his season to solidify his grip on the closer role.

Impact Foley easily led the team in saves last season with 28, while Holton had eight. However, manager A.J. Hinch has shown a willingness to play the matchups at the end of games, so the lefty Holton and others could mix in. As for Kahnle, he's been an effective reliever the past few years, though he's never had more than two saves in a season, so he probably will mostly work as a setup man. Foley is the top Detroit reliever to target at this point, but the fluid nature of the club's bullpen may limit his upside to a degree in 2025.

Inks deal with Detroit Foley agreed to a one-year, $3.15 million contract with the Tigers on Thursday, avoiding arbitration, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Impact The right-hander receives a significant raise in his first season of arbitration eligibility after recording 28 saves with a 3.15 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 46:20 K:BB across 60 innings last year. Foley is on track to begin spring training as Detroit's closer in 2025.

Secures one-out save Friday Foley recorded the last out of Friday's 4-1 win over the White Sox to earn the save,
Impact Tyler Holton was pitching well and possibly could have been asked to retire one more batter with a three-run lead, but the Tigers didn't mess around with a chance to secure an AL Wild Card spot. Foley did his part to kick start the celebration by securing his 28th save of the season and seventh in the last two weeks. The righty has been a big piece of his team's surprise success this year, pitching to a 3.15 ERA and 1.18 WHIP across 60 innings. Foley will clearly have a high-leverage role in the postseason now as well.

Impact With Detroit winning, and Minnesota losing twice on Sunday, the Tigers moved into the last AL Wild Card spot for the moment. Foley has been a key part of the team's recent surge, as he now has 26 saves this season, including four in the last week. Expect Detroit to keep leaning on its closer in the final week of the regular season as the club battles for the playoff berth.
