Tigers inform Wentz, Faedo they’ve made the team. Brieske to be optioned, Diaz most likely to be DFA’d

  1. I firmly think this is a bigger mistake than sending Manning down. Faedo doesn’t have the same skill set as Brieske and Beau was better in camp. Wentz I get, but the difference between Faedo and Brieske is pretty staggering.

  2. I’m not sold on Wentz. He was so awful last season but 15IP in ST gets you a spot? Should waive him. Mistake.

    Edit: You’ll all see. Mark it.

  3. Brieske got sent down to work on his new slider shape and to improve strikeouts. He didn’t allow a run, but he also only struck out 9 in 13.2 IP with an .091 BABIP. Faedo’s peripherals were much better.

    Since Wentz is a power lefty with no options left, he’s getting one last chance to not suck in the bullpen. Personally I think he’ll be gone by June 1st, but as the last bullpen member and 3rd-in-line lefty there’s no reason not to give him one last chance after a not-awful spring.
