Holton (5-5) took the loss against the Yankees on Thursday, allowing two runs on two hits while striking out two across one frame. Holton recorded both of his strikeouts in the first inning but also gave up a solo home run to Aaron Judge before being tagged for a second run in the second frame when. It was Holton's sixth time serving as an opener this year, and he now sits at a 4.00 ERA and 1.13 WHIP across 69.2 innings overall.

Holton will serve as the Tigers' opening pitcher for Thursday's game against the Yankees, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. Holton will receive his sixth opening assignment of the season Thursday and his first since July 2. The 29-year-old southpaw owns a 3.86 ERA and 1.12 WHIP through 67.2 frames, and he likely will remain in the game for just an inning or two before turning the ball over to Sawyer Gipson-Long, who is expected to work in a bulk-relief role.

Holton (4-3) tossed 2.2 scoreless innings of relief to earn the win in Friday's 2-1 victory over the Guardians. He allowed one hit and struck out four. After starter Reese Olson (finger) logged 4.1 innings in his return from the injured list following about six weeks on the shelf, Holton stepped in and provided valuable relief. The lefty has had a few rough outings this season, but he's now made five straight scoreless appearances (7.2 innings) and has lowered his ERA to a solid 3.86 overall. The 29-year-old has also contributed eight holds to go along with his four wins. Holton is one of Detroit's top bullpen arms with a flexible role, giving him some fantasy value in deeper formats.

Holton (3-3) worked around a hit to toss a scoreless inning of relief and earn the win in Sunday's 9-3 victory over the Rays. Holton replaced starter Casey Mize a batter into the sixth inning, as the latter departed the game due to right leg cramping. Holton then picked up the win out of the bullpen when the Tigers piled on eight runs over the last three innings of the contest to break open a close game. The lefty had allowed three runs in his last appearance and entered the game with a 7.45 ERA this month. After the improved outing Sunday, Holton now has a 4.58 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 30 strikeouts across 35.1 innings this season.
