Yikes. Flaherty also issued three free passes while striking out three batters on the night. The Rays jumped on him early and often in this one, as Yandy Diaz blasted a leadoff home run to spark a four-run rally in the opening inning. After navigating a scoreless second, the Rays went right back to work in the third inning as Taylor Walls smacked a three-run double that mercifully chased Flaherty from the game. He now holds an uninspiring 4.83 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and a 93/31 K/BB ratio across 78 1/3 innings on the season. Heโll try to pick up the pieces on Thursday when he takes on the Athletics.

Torkelson has been scuffling in recent weeks, hitting .198 (21-for-106) with five homers and 14 RBI over his last 30 games. Heโs slid into a deeper tailspin of late, batting .083 (2-for-24) over his last seven games. The positive angle here is that heโs not striking out at an astronomical rate. However, the Tigers have a capable alternative in Colt Keith, especially against right-handed starters, which is why heโs getting the nod to face Rays starter Ryan Pepiot on Saturday afternoon instead.

After facing an early 4-0 deficit, Greene got the Tigers back in the game with a 432-foot (108.1 mph EV) three-run blast off of Shane Baz in the third inning. He then walked to lead off the sixth inning and scored on an RBI double off the bat of Parker Meadows. Greene also led off the eighth inning with a 381-foot (111.2 mph EV) solo shot off of Eric Orze that pulled the Tigers to within five runs at 11-6. With his three-hit attack, the sizzling 24-year-old outfielder is now slashing .287/.341/.526 with 17 long balls and 59 RBI.

Smith was with the team as the 27th man for Thursdayโs doubleheader against the Pirates, but heโll stick around as an extra bullpen arm with Keider Montero getting optioned to Triple-A instead. Heโll give manager A.J. Hinch another weapon to deploy in the middle innings.
