Tigers' Carlos Perez: Catches on with Tigers
The Tigers signed Perez to a minor-league contract Wednesday.
Perez has split this season between Triple-A Sugar Land in the Astros organization and the Mexican League. The 35-year-old last appeared in the big leagues in 2023 and is merely a catching depth addition for Detroit.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Fans eight in win
Montero (7-5) allowed one run on three hits and struck out eight without walking a batter over 5.1 innings to earn the win over the Cubs on Wednesday.
Montero was back in the rotation for the first time since he threw seven shutout innings June 26 versus the Astros. The right-hander had moved to the bullpen for much of July, but he could take claim of a starting role once again since Jack Flaherty (forearm) went on the injured list Tuesday and Casey Mize is dealing with groin tightness and a wrist issue. For the season, Montero has been a fine option in any role, pitching to a 3.14 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 78:22 K:BB through 106 innings over 22 appearances (16 starts). Assuming Montero remains the top option to cover a starting role in Flaherty's absence, the former is lined up for a home start versus the Orioles early next week.

Tigers' Kenley Jansen: Extends scoreless streak Wednesday
Jansen tossed a clean inning of relief in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Cubs. He walked one and struck out one.
Jansen was used in the ninth inning to close things out for the Tigers, though it wasn't a save situation due to the four-run lead. The veteran has righted the ship after a rough patch in May and June, as he's now logged seven straight scoreless appearances, during which time he's recorded a win and two saves. Overall, Jansen has a 4.05 ERA and 30 strikeouts across 26.2 innings this season, and he leads Detroit with 11 saves.

Tigers' Hao-Yu Lee: Launches key home run Wednesday
Lee went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Cubs.
Lee hit his fifth home run of the season in the fourth inning against Chicago starter Colin Rea with two runners on, which helped break the game open for the Tigers. The 23-year-old has held his own during his rookie campaign with a .256 batting average and .685 OPS across 60 contests. However, the recent return of Gleyber Torres (oblique) from the injured list is likely to cut into Lee's playing time at second base.

Tigers' Spencer Torkelson: Launches 19th home run
Torkelson went 2-for-3 with a walk, a solo home run and two additional runs scored in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Cubs.
Torkelson hit his 19th home run of the season in the second inning against Chicago starter Colin Rea. The slugging first baseman has now gone deep five times across his last 11 games as he continues to find his power stroke following a slow start to the season. Torkelson is seeking his second straight 30-homer campaign and third overall in his MLB career.

Tigers' Kerry Carpenter: Back in action Wednesday
Carpenter (heel) will serve as the DH and bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Cubs, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Carpenter had been playing through a bruised heel for a couple of days before eventually sitting out Tuesday's game, but he now seems ready to go for Wednesday's series finale. The 28-year-old has been stuck in a cold spell at the plate recently, going 0-for-26 with nine strikeouts in his last 10 games.

Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Taking seat Wednesday
Torres isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
After going 2-for-7 with two walks through the first two games of the series, Torres will move to the bench Wednesday as the Tigers look to ease him back to action following a month-long stay on the IL. Hao-Yu Lee will pick up a start at second base as a result and bat eighth.

Tigers' Framber Valdez: Clobbered by Cubs
Valdez (5-7) took the loss against the Cubs on Tuesday, giving up six runs on five hits and two walks while striking out one batter over two-thirds of an inning.
Valdez made his first start since July 9, but the extra time off didn't seem to do him any favors. The lefty hurler allowed the first seven batters he faced to reach base, and he was pulled with two outs in the first frame after forcing home a run by issuing a bases-loaded walk to Pete Crow-Armstrong. It was the second time in Valdez's career that he's been unable to get out of the first inning, and it was the third time this season that he's surrendered five or more runs in a start. Valdez's initial campaign with Detroit has been mostly a disappointment, as his 4.57 ERA is the seventh-worst mark among qualified MLB hurlers.

Tigers' Dillon Dingler: Goes deep again in blowout loss
Dingler went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double and a two-run home run in Tuesday's 11-2 loss to the Cubs.
Dingler hit his deep fly in garbage time with the Tigers down 11-0 in the top of the ninth inning, but fantasy managers don't care when the power arrives. The slugging catcher also went deep twice Monday, and he's now up to 22 home runs overall. Dingler is tied for second at his position in homers with Shea Langeliers, and Hunter Goodman is leading the way among catchers with 31 long balls.

Tigers' Jack Flaherty: Placed on injured list
The Tigers placed Flaherty on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right flexor strain.
Flaherty's injury may have played a part in his performance during his start Monday, in which he gave up three earned runs in just four innings against the Cubs. He'll now be forced to miss a few turns through the rotation while he recovers, and the Tigers will bring Ty Madden up from Triple-A to add some extra depth to their bullpen.

Tigers' Ty Madden: Returns to majors
The Tigers recalled Madden from Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday.
With Jack Flaherty landing on the injured list with right flexor inflammation, Madden will join the Tigers' bullpen to give the team another multi-inning relief option. The 26-year-old righty owns a 4.71 ERA in 42 innings at Toledo but has been far more successful in the majors, posting a 3.15 ERA and 1.05 WHIP alongside a 23:5 K:BB across 20 innings.
