  • Dean Kremer (triceps) to start Wednesday vs. M’s
    Dean Kremer (triceps) will start on Wednesday against the Mariners.

    Advice: Kremer will make his return from the injured list for Wednesday’s contest in Seattle after missing nearly six weeks due to a right triceps strain. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:03 pm
     
  • Starting Wednesday
    Kremer (triceps) is expected to be activated from the 15-day injured list to start Wednesday against Seattle, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

    Advice: Kremer will make his return to the major-league rotation after missing six weeks of action with a right triceps strain. The right-hander has struggled to a 11.42 ERA with nine strikeouts while surrendering four home runs over 8.2 innings in three rehab outings with Triple-A Norfolk. As a result of Kremer's addition to the rotation, Corbin Burnes will be pushed back to make his next start in Thursday's series finale against the Mariners. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:52 pm
     
  • Starting Wednesday
    Montero will be recalled from Triple-A Toledo to start Wednesday in Minnesota, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Montero will be filling in for Jack Flaherty (back), who is having his turn skipped. The Tigers will also need an additional starter for later this week with Casey Mize (hamstring) headed to the 15-day injured list. Montero has permitted nine runs with an 11:4 K:BB over 8.2 innings for the Tigers in 2024. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:51 pm
     
  • Joins Tigers in Minnesota
    Montero has joined the Tigers in Minnesota and is expected to enter the rotation in place of the injured Casey Mize (hamstring), Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: It's not known yet which day Montero will start, but he will join the rotation sometime this week while Mize misses some time. The right-hander has made two appearances with the Tigers this season -- one as a starter and one as a bulk reliever -- and has allowed nine runs with an 11:4 K:BB over 8.2 innings.

  • Keider Montero likely to start in place of Mize
    Keider Montero is likely to take the place of Casey Mize (hamstring) in the rotation.

    Advice: Jason Beck of MLB.com reports that Montero is traveling with the team to Minnesota, so that just about confirms it. Mize is currently dealing with hamstring troubles, and is expected to be placed on the 15-day injured list. Montero hasn’t had success as an MLB hurler yet, but the 23-year-old has quality stuff and could be an interesting streamer when facing less-than-spectacular lineups.

  • Likely candidate to sub for Mize
    Montero is a likely candidate to start in place of the injured Casey Mize (hamstring) after the latter was scratched from a scheduled start Monday with Triple-A Toledo, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Mize is expected to land on the 15-day injured list with a strained hamstring, and it looks like Montero will be the choice to take his spot. Mize's next turn had been scheduled for Saturday in Cincinnati, although the Tigers could choose to alter the order of their rotation. Montero has made one start and one bulk-relief appearance for Detroit this season, allowing nine runs with an 11:4 K:BB over 8.2 innings. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:04 am
     
  • Awarded another start
    Festa is scheduled to start Wednesday's game against the Tigers at Target Field.

    Advice: Tabbed as a replacement in the big-league rotation this past Thursday for the injured Chris Paddack (forearm), Festa surrendered five earned runs on seven hits and one walk and struck out just two batters but received enough run support to come away with a win against the Diamondbacks. Festa was cruising early in his debut and faced just one batter more than the minimum through three innings, but he began to unravel over his final two frames, when he allowed all seven of his hits. Festa may need a better showing in Minnesota against a weaker Detroit offense to ensure he gets additional turns through the rotation, as Caleb Boushley has been pitching well at Triple-A St. Paul and looms as an alternative as the Twins' No. 5 starter if Festa can't get the job done.

  • Final rehab start Wednesday
    Snell (groin) will make a rehab start with Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday and is expected to rejoin the Giants rotation after their road trip that ends July 7, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Advice: Snell threw three innings in a start with Sacramento on Friday, allowing three runs on four hits and a walk with six strikeouts. The 31-year-old will require one more rehab appearance before being reinstated and is on track to make a start with San Francisco prior to the All-Star break. Snell owns a 9.51 ERA across 23.2 innings with the Giants this season. Rotowire.com Saturday, 2:09 pm
     
  • Blake Snell to make another rehab start Wednesday
    Blake Snell (groin) will make a third minor league rehab start at Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday.

    Advice: The 31-year-old southpaw pitched three innings in Friday’s latest rehab outing, giving up three runs on four hits and a walk while punching out six. Snell got up to 62 pitches (41 strikes) in that outing. If all goes well with Wednesday’s start, he would slot back into the Giants’ starting rotation for the following week.
