Spencer Turnbull - Set to begin rehab assignmentTigers manager A.J. Hinch said Turnbull (neck) will make rehab starts Tuesday and Sunday with High-A West Michigan, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
ImpactTurnbull has been facing live hitters for more than a week and will now begin the process of getting stretched back out while he heads out of the farm for a pair of rehab starts. The right-hander has been sidelined since early May with a neck injury, so he'll likely be in store for a relatively slow buildup. He's expected to cover two innings Tuesday and three Sunday before likely moving his rehab assignment to Double-A Erie or Triple-A Toledo the following week. Prior to being shelved, Turnbull compiled a 7.26 ERA and 1.68 WHIP in seven starts with Detroit and had been optioned to Triple-A, so he won't be guaranteed a spot in the big-league rotation once he's formally activated from the 60-day injured list.

Zach Logue - Rejoins big clubThe Tigers recalled Logue from Triple-A Toledo on Monday.
ImpactLogue will join Detroit's 26-man active roster as a replacement for right-hander Alex Faedo, who was sent back to Toledo following a spot start in Sunday's win over the Padres. During his upcoming stint with the Tigers, Logue is expected to serve as a multi-inning relief option, with most of his usage likely to come in lower-leverage scenarios.

Brendan White - Back with big clubThe Tigers recalled White from Triple-A Toledo on Monday.
ImpactThough he was optioned to Toledo on Sunday, White is eligible to rejoin the Tigers just one day later since fellow reliever Mason Englert (hip) was placed on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. In 16 outings with the Tigers this season, spanning 20 innings, White has accrued a 4.95 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 20:7 K:BB. He'll likely serve as a middle-relief option while he's up with Detroit.

Mason Englert - Sidelined with tight hipThe Tigers placed Englert on the 15-day injured list Monday with left hip tightness.
ImpactEnglert's move to the IL comes two days after he was lit up for nine earned runs on 10 hits and one walk over 2.1 innings of long relief in Saturday's 14-3 loss to the Padres. Prior to the disastrous outing, Englert had been a serviceable middle-relief option for the Tigers, accruing a 4.19 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 40:16 K:BB in 53.2 innings. A timeline for Englert's return from the injury hasn't been established, but he'll be eligible for activation beginning Aug. 7.
