The Tigers went all-in on pitching help at the trade deadline and acquired two starters — Chris Paddack and Charlie Morton — and four relievers — Rafael Montero, Kyle Finnegan, Codi Heuer, and Paul Sewald. Heuer was immediately sent to Triple-A upon the trade with the Rangers, and Sewald returned to the IL, where he'd been with a right shoulder strain before leaving the Guardians.
Detroit's made a few roster moves to fit all of the new guys since the deadline. Dietrich Enns was DFA'ed and then traded to the Orioles to open a 40-man space for Heuer, Matt Manning was traded to the Phillies and Chase Lee was optioned to Triple-A to make room for Montero and Finnegan, and Brenan Hanifee was optioned on Friday night to accommodate Morton.
