Earlier today the Detroit Tigers made a sad, but inevitable, announcement:
The Tigers have announced the following roster moves:
*Placed C Grayson Greiner on the 10-day IL with a left hamstring strain
*Selected C Eric Haase from AAA Toledo
*To make room for Haase on the 40-man roster, RHP Franklin Pérez has been placed on unconditional release waivers— Tigers PR (@DetroitTigersPR) May 12, 2021
To be clear, we’re talking about that final bullet point.
