Detroit Tigers pitcher Bruce Rondon is returning to the club.
The reliever, who excelled down the stretch in 2016, is back with the Tigers, starting with Friday’s game against the Padres.
Detroit announced the move, along with three other transactions in a pair of tweets on the team’s official Twitter account on Friday afternoon.
The Tigers tweeted the following:
“The #Tigers have released RHP Francisco Rodriguez and placed OF Alex Presley on the 7-day concussion DL.”
“Additionally, the #Tigers have recalled RHP Bruce Rondon from Toledo (AAA) and selected the contract of OF Matt den Dekker (#21) from Toledo.
