TransactionTigers activated RHP Ty Madden from the 15-day injured list.
Madden returns to Detroit’s rotation to take the ball for Monday’s series opener against the Rays after missing just over two weeks with a forearm injury. The 26-year-old has shown some promise with a strong 2.38 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 12/2 K/BB ratio across 11 1/3 innings over three starts for the Tigers this season. It’s not exactly the easiest of matchups considering Tampa Bay has been one of the best lineups in baseball this season. However, Madden represents a worthwhile streaming option in deeper mixed leagues since this road matchup is in pitcher-friendly Tropicana Field.
