Tigers Activate José Urquidy From 60-Day IL in Late-Season Bullpen Boost

His limited rehab workload points to a multi-inning bullpen role.

Overview

  • Detroit reinstated the right-hander before Friday’s game in Miami for his first major league action since 2023.
  • He is expected to work multiple innings out of the bullpen after no rehab outing exceeded three innings, including 28 pitches over two frames in his latest appearance.
  • Across a two-level rehab, Urquidy logged 19 2/3 innings with a 3.20 ERA, five walks and 16 strikeouts.
  • Sawyer Gipson-Long was placed on the 15-day injured list with neck stiffness, removing a recent rotation option.
  • To clear a 40-man spot, Beau Brieske was recalled and shifted to the 60-day injured list with a right forearm strain.
