Faedo was invited to the Tigers' major-league spring training Thursday.
Faedo dealt with a back injury last season with Double-A Erie, but he still managed to pitch 115.1 innings, recording a 3.90 ERA and 134:25 K:BB during that time. Although Faedo will get to work with the major-league coaching staff during spring training, he'll likely require more time in the minors prior to being considered for a spot with the big-league pitching staff.
