The Detroit Tigers announced on Tuesday that they have added relief pitcher Woo-Suk Go to the Single-A West Michigan roster as he starts a minor-league rehab assignment. Go signed a minor-league deal with the Tigers at the end of June and had been pitching with Triple-A Toledo, but an injury has kept him sidelined since the end of July.

Go's minor-league rehab assignment could have some impact on the Major League roster before the end of the month. If the Tigers' front office were looking for Go to be a potential bullpen piece for the postseason, he would need to be on their Major League roster by the end of August.
