Daniel Stumpf: Designated for assignment
Daniel Stumpf (elbow) was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Thursday, Emily Waldon of The Athletic reports.Stumpf was already a non-tender candidate due to his role as a lefty specialist, as the league will implement a three-batter minimum for pitchers in 2020, and he now finds himself off the team's 40-man roster. The 28-year-old cleared waivers and opted to become a free agent, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports. In 48 appearances this season, the southpaw recorded a 4.34 ERA with 28 strikeouts over 29 innings pitched.

Tigers' Daniel Stumpf: Done for season with elbow injury
The Detroit Tigers placed Daniel Stumpf on the 60-day injured list Monday with a left elbow strain.Stumpf's injury won't necessarily keep him out of commission for two months, but the move to the 60-day IL officially ends his season and opens up a 40-man roster spot for reliever Marcos Diplan, whom the Tigers claimed off waivers from Minnesota. A lefty specialist who likely won't bring much utility with the MLB implementing a three-batter minimum for pitchers in 2020, Stumpf looks like a potential non-tender candidate for the Tigers this winter.
