Farmer (2-0) tossed 6.2 scoreless innings Wednesday, scattering three hits and a walk while striking out five in a 4-0 win over the Angels.
He's now delivered 13 shutout innings over two starts with a 16:3 K:BB, and Farmer seems to have done more than enough to lock up the Tigers' fifth starter spot going forward. His next start is scheduled for Tuesday at home against the Diamondbacks.
