Madden is expected to pitch in Monday's game against the Padres at Petco Park, either as a traditional starter or a bulk reliever, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Madden came up from Triple-A Toledo to make his MLB debut in a starting role this past Monday against the White Sox, covering five innings while giving up two runs (one earned) on four hits and three walks while striking out two. While the Tigers initially listed him as their expected starter for Sunday's game against the Red Sox, the team ultimately changed its plans and deployed Beau Brieske as an opener in front of Brant Hurter. Assuming Madden does in fact pitch Monday, he'll line up for two appearances this week, with his second outing projected to come Sunday in Oakland.
