  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Earns fifth win Saturday

    Faedo (5-1) tossed two scoreless innings of relief to earn the win in Saturday's 7-3 victory over the Blue Jays. He allowed one hit and struck out three.

    Detroit starter Reese Olson was forced to exit after two innings due to right shoulder soreness, which brought Faedo into the contest. The righty pitched well and earned his fifth win out of the bullpen this season, which ties him with Shelby Miller for the team lead among relievers. The long relief role isn't the most fantasy friendly, though Faedo has pitched well this year, compiling a 3.35 ERA and 41 strikeouts across 45.2 innings overall.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Retires one batter to earn win

    Faedo (4-1) walked a batter and retired one via strikeout to earn the win in Sunday's 4-3 victory over the Dodgers.

    Faedo needed 12 pitches to close out the top of the ninth inning, then scooped up the win when the Tigers scored twice in the bottom of the frame. The righty finished a solid first half of the season in which he posted a 3.50 ERA and 38 strikeouts across 43.2 innings of relief. Faedo will remain a bullpen option for the Tigers after the All-Star break, and he can give the team multiple innings when needed.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Opens with two scoreless frames

    Faedo allowed one hit while striking out two batters in two scoreless innings as the opener in Detroit's win over Cincinnati on Saturday.

    Faedo began the Tigers' bullpen game and got the job done with two scoreless innings. It marked the first time the right-hander opened a contest this season. This is Faedo's first campaign as a full-time reliever in the majors, and he's posted a 3.18 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 35:15 K:BB over 39.2 frames.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Starting bullpen game

    Faedo will start Saturday's game against the Reds.

    Faedo will throw the first pitch for Detroit, as the Tigers will rely on their bullpen to get them through Saturday's game in order to give their starters an extra day of rest. The 28-year-old righty served as a starter for two seasons before moving to the bullpen full-time in 2024, so he may be able to get through two or three innings before getting pulled.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Returns from injured list

    The Tigers reinstated Faedo (hip) from the 15-day injured list Thursday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

    Faedo made three rehab appearances at Triple-A Toledo, during which he gave up one run over three innings while striking out four batters and walking four. He owns a 3.38 ERA and 1.18 WHIP through 34.2 frames in the majors, and he'll slide back into a middle relief role now that he's been cleared to rejoin the Tigers' bullpen. Keider Montero was optioned to Toledo in a corresponding move.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Third rehab outing coming

    Faedo (hip) is scheduled to make his third rehab appearance for Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

    After tossing a scoreless inning in his first minor-league appearance, Faedo surrendered four hits, two walks and a run across 1.1 innings Saturday. He's been on the injured list since June 5 but is expected to rejoin the major-league roster soon. In fact, Tuesday's outing could be his last at Toledo.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Making second rehab appearance

    Faedo (hip) is scheduled to pitch for Triple-A Toledo on Saturday, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

    Faedo threw a scoreless inning Wednesday in his first rehab outing and is in line to pitch again Saturday in what could be his final appearance with Toledo. Faedo owns a 3.38 ERA, six holds and a 3-1 record across 34.2 innings with the Tigers.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Ready for rehab assignment

    Faedo (hip) is scheduled to join Triple-A Toledo this week to begin a rehab assignment, MLB.com reports.

    Faedo has been on the injured list for just under two weeks with right hip inflammation, so he'll likely need just one or two rehab appearances before he's cleared to rejoin the Detroit bullpen. After being deployed mostly in middle relief or long relief earlier in the season, Faedo had moved his way into higher-leverage spots prior to landing on the IL. In his last 11 appearances before being deactivated, Faedo notched one win and six holds.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Another bullpen on tap

    Faedo (hip) is scheduled to throw another bullpen session Tuesday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

    Faedo said he felt "really good" Thursday after completing his first bullpen session since being placed on the injured list June 5. With another bullpen coming Sunday, Faedo seems likely to begin a rehab stint in the near future and could be back with the Tigers by the end of June.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Slated for mound work

    Faedo (hip) will throw a bullpen session Thursday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

    Faedo looks set to throw off a mound for the first time since he landed on the 15-day injured list last week with inflammation in his surgically-repaired right hip. He looks to be closing in on a rehab assignment and shouldn't need too many appearances before being activated since he hasn't missed extensive time.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Progressing in rehab

    Faedo (hip) played catch Tuesday and will ramp up his throwing volume throughout the week, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

    Faedo was placed on the 15-day IL Wednesday with right hip inflammation and has resumed a throwing program. While it's unclear if he'll require a minor-league rehab stint, Faedo seems to be on track to return in late June.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Lands on injured list

    The Tigers placed Faedo on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with right hip inflammation.

    Faedo has been effective in his first season as a full-time reliever, posting a 3.38 ERA and 1.18 WHIP through 34.2 innings. However, he will now have to sit out at least the next 15 days due to complications with his hip. His spot in the bullpen will be given to Mason Englert, who was recalled from Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Ineffective again Thursday

    Faedo allowed three runs on three hits and a walk across 1.2 innings of relief in Thursday's 9-1 loss to the Blue Jays. He struck out one.

    After starting the season with a 2.25 ERA across his first 14 appearances, Faedo has allowed runs in his last three outings, and he has a 9.00 ERA during that stretch. The righty was a middling starter the last two years, and while he's looked a little better out of the bullpen, he may be regressing closer to his career 4.67 ERA. Faedo doesn't have a ton of fantasy value in his current middle-relief role, particularly given his recent struggles.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Allows two runs but earns win

    Faedo (3-1) allowed two runs on three hits across 2.1 innings of relief but managed to earn the win in Monday's game against the Marlins. He struck out four.

    Faedo wasn't at his sharpest Monday, but the righty still managed to earn another win out of the bullpen. He's been racking those up at an impressive but likely unsustainable pace, as he came into the season with only three total wins at the MLB level the last two years despite making 24 starts. Faedo has been solid so far, though his long-relief role makes his fantasy value somewhat unpredictable moving forward.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Earns win Saturday

    Faedo (2-1) tossed two scoreless innings of relief to earn the win Saturday against the Royals.

    After starter Casey Mize allowed three runs (two earned) over five innings, Faedo worked the sixth and seventh, and he continued to pitch well. The righty has a strong 2.55 ERA across 17.2 innings this season, and he's emerged as a capable long reliever for the Tigers. The role limits Faedo's upside, though he may be able to earn a few more wins here and there.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Continues to pitch well

    Faedo logged two scoreless innings of relief in Friday's 8-2 win over the Twins. He walked one and struck out two.

    Faedo now has a strong 2.16 ERA across five appearances (8.1 innings). The righty has covered two full innings in three of his five outings, which has given the Tigers a nice boost out of the bullpen. Faedo may not have a ton of fantasy value in his current long-relief role, though he could move up the bullpen pecking order if he continues to pitch well.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Logs two scoreless innings Monday

    Faedo pitched two scoreless innings of relief in Monday's 5-0, 10-inning win over the Mets. He allowed a hit and a walk, while striking out three.

    Detroit needed some bullpen length to get the contest to extra innings and Faedo delivered. The righty has now logged 3.2 scoreless innings across two appearances this year, and it looks like he'll be asked to serve in a long-relief role moving forward. While Faedo may provide the Tigers a boost in this capacity, his fantasy value figures to be more up and down, as he'll have an unpredictable path to the occasional win or hold.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Will make Opening Day roster

    Faedo will make the Tigers' Opening Day roster in a bullpen role, Julie Kreuz of MLB.com reports.

    Faedo pitched well this spring, compiling a 1.35 ERA across 13.1 innings, and it was enough to secure his first Opening Day roster spot in the majors. The one-time first-round pick hasn't found his footing as an MLB starter yet, though he could emerge as an effective reliever if his stuff plays up. However, Faedo likely won't see enough high-leverage work initially to warrant fantasy attention.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Continues strong play

    Faedo tossed two scoreless innings in Tuesday's Grapefruit League game against the Twins. He struck out two.

    After allowing two runs over two innings in his first spring appearance back on Feb. 25, Faedo has now logged six straight scoreless innings across three appearances. The righty made 12 starts for the Tigers last season, but with the likes of Kenta Maeda and Jack Flaherty now in the mix, Faedo will likely have to settle for a relief role in 2024. So far, he's making a strong case to have a spot on the Opening Day roster.

  • Tigers' Alex Faedo: Has uneven spring debut

    Faedo allowed two runs on four hits across two innings in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Rays. He struck out three.

    The strikeouts were nice, but Faedo was also too hittable, with the key blow being a home run by Yu Chang. Faedo appeared in 15 games for the Tigers in 2023, with 12 starts, but he's likely been pushed out of a rotation spot due to the offseason additions of Kenta Maeda and Jack Flaherty, and several other pitchers have gotten healthy. Faedo will instead look to snag a bullpen role coming out of spring training. The righty won't be on the fantasy radar as a middle reliever.
