The Tigers optioned Horn to Triple-A Toledo on Friday.
Horn has given up just one run in 5.1 innings since joining the big-league squad Sept. 2, lowering his ERA in the majors to 1.59 through 11.1 frames. Despite his strong performance, he'll be pushed back to the minor leagues by Kyle Finnegan (groin), who returned from the injured list Friday.

Tigers' Bailey Horn: Placed on paternity list
Rotowire
The Tigers placed Horn on the paternity list Tuesday.
Horn will be allowed to miss up to three games while he welcomes a new addition to his family. Drew Sommers was recalled from Triple-A Toledo to fill the opening in Detroit's bullpen.
Horn worked around two walks to toss a scoreless inning of relief in Friday's 7-0 win over the Twins.
Horn was tasked with working the ninth inning, but with the Tigers up 7-0, it wasn't really a high-leverage spot. It was the lefty's first appearance in the majors since July 6. Horn has spent most of the season with Triple-A Toledo, where he's posted a 3.06 ERA and 44 strikeouts across 35.1 innings. He should work in a middle-relief role for Detroit for however long he sticks around, giving the team another left-handed bullpen option behind Tyler Holton and Brant Hurter.

Tigers' Bailey Horn: Recalled from Toledo
Rotowire
The Tigers recalled Horn from Triple-A Toledo on Saturday.
With John Brebbia (triceps) headed for the injured list, the Tigers will call upon Horn to help replenish the team's bullpen depth. The 27-year-old southpaw logged a 6.50 ERA in 18 innings with the Red Sox last season, and he's off to a similar start through 8.1 frames this year in Triple-A (6.48 ERA, 2.47 WHIP). He'll likely be limited to low-leverage situations while in Detroit.

Cardinals' Bailey Horn: Loses 40-man spot
Rotowire
Horn was designated for assignment by the Cardinals on Thursday.
The 27-year-old southpaw endured a rough spring, allowing four runs on three hits and five walks while striking out one batter over 2.1 innings in the Grapefruit League. Horn will now be subjected to waivers and could attract interest from teams in need of lefty relief help. While he has mostly struggled against big-league competition, Horn put up a 2.15 ERA and 1.06 WHIP in 21 appearances with Boston's Triple-A affiliate last season.

Tigers' Bailey Horn: Claimed by Tigers
Rotowire
The Tigers claimed Horn off waivers from the Red Sox on Friday, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
The Red Sox attempted to pass Horn through waivers in an effort to clear space on their 40-man roster, but the 26-year-old southpaw will instead head to Detroit and look to carve out a role. He struggled to the tune of a 6.50 ERA and 1.78 WHIP over 18 big-league innings in 2024, so he'll most likely report to Triple-A Toledo to begin the new season.
