Tigers Place Chris Paddack on Bereavement List, Recall Keider Montero

A.J. Hinch said Paddack arranged the leave around a memorial service under MLB’s 3–7 day policy.

Overview

  • Detroit placed Paddack on the bereavement list following a death in his family, which permits an absence of three to seven days.
  • Paddack told reporters he planned to be away for three days and timed the leave for a memorial service.
  • The Tigers recalled right-hander Keider Montero from Triple-A Toledo to fill Paddack’s roster spot, and he is available immediately.
  • Hinch said Montero is stretched for anything from bulk relief to a one-inning assignment.
  • Paddack had recently shifted to the bullpen after uneven starts and allowed six runs on eight hits in 1 1/3 innings in Tuesday’s 12-5 loss to the Mets.
