Tigers' Ty Madden: Ineffective in relief Saturday
Ty Madden allowed three runs on four hits and a walk across three innings of relief during Saturday's 4-0 loss to the White Sox. He struck out two.Opener Beau Brieske was tagged with the loss for allowing just a single run, but Madden didn't help matters during his uneven relief appearance. The 24-year-old righty had a sharp 2.55 ERA over his first four outings following his first MLB promotion in late August, but he now has a 10.12 ERA over his last two games. The Detroit Tigers are headed to the postseason and have some decisions to make with their pitching staff, so it remains to be seen if Madden makes the playoff roster and gets to pitch again during his rookie campaign.

Tigers' Ty Madden: Grabs first win as bulk reliever
Ty Madden (1-0) allowed a run on five hits and a walk while striking out seven over five innings to earn the win over the Athletics on Sunday.Madden entered the game in the second inning after Beau Brieske pitched a scoreless first as the opener. Through three outings (one start), Madden has been sharp, pitching to a 2.57 ERA, though he has a less impressive 1.21 WHIP and 10:4 K:BB over 14 innings in the majors.

Tigers' Ty Madden: Allows two runs in relief
Ty Madden did not factor into the decision in Monday's 3-0 loss to the Padres, allowing two runs on four hits and no walks with two strikeouts over four innings.Madden was used as a bulk reliever and tossed four scoreless frames before yielding two runs without recording an out in the eighth. The rookie has allowed three earned runs with an unimpressive 3:3 K:BB across nine major-league innings and could make another appearance this weekend against the Athletics, assuming he continues to work as a starter or primary pitcher.

Tigers' Ty Madden: Slated to pitch Monday
Ty 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 Detroit 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.

Tigers' Ty Madden: Earns another start
Ty Madden is scheduled to start Sunday's game against the Red Sox at Comerica Park.Despite posting a 7.97 ERA over 79 innings at Triple-A Toledo this season, Madden received his first call-up Monday and turned in a respectable showing in his MLB debut, albeit against a lowly White Sox offense. He covered five innings and took a no-decision Monday, striking out two while allowing two runs (one earned) on four hits and three walks. Though Madden didn't yield any extra-base hits in the contest, he struggled to find the zone, spotting just 52 of his 87 pitches for strikes. Madden will make for a risky streaming option this weekend versus Boston.

Tigers' Ty Madden: Mixed bag in MLB debut
Ty Madden allowed two runs (one earned) on four hits and three walks while striking out two batters over five innings in a no-decision against the White Sox on Monday.Madden was called up from Triple-A Toledo ahead of Monday's outing to make his big-league debut. The right-hander gave up an unearned run in the first inning but hung tough and surrendered just one more run over the remainder of his start. While he struggled with his control at times, issuing three walks and throwing a modest 52 of 87 pitches for strikes, Madden didn't surrender any extra-base hits and showed poise in mostly avoiding damage despite allowing at least one runner to reach base in each of his five frames. However, the 24-year-old didn't didn't display the strikeout stuff he's exhibited in the minors -- Madden has fanned 102 batters over 79 innings at Toledo but punched out just two hitters and induced only eight whiffs Monday. If he gets another turn in the rotation, it's tentatively slated to come against Boston this weekend.

Tigers' Ty Madden: Contract selected ahead of debut
The Detroit Tigers selected Ty Madden's contract from Triple-A Toledo, and he will start in Monday's series finale against the White Sox.Madden will make his major-league debut Monday as he provides the Tigers some relief for their starting rotation, which has been decimated by injuries. Madden was promoted to Toledo in late April, and in his 18 starts in Triple-A this season he's posted a 3-5 record with a 7.97 ERA, 1.77 WHIP and 102:40 K:BB over 79 innings. If he is able to fare well in his MLB debut, he could stick around with the big club and earn another start down the road.

Tigers' Ty Madden: Slated to start for big club Monday
Detroit Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said that Ty Madden will be called up from Triple-A Toledo to start Monday's game against the White Sox in Chicago, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.Detroit has been getting by of late with just two traditional starters in Tarik Skubal and Keider Montero, but the club has implemented a five-man rotation with Kenta Maeda, Brant Hurter and Bryan Sammons operating as bulk relievers behind openers. Casey Mize (oblique) is slated to return from the 60-day injured list later this week, but Madden should have the opportunity to stick around with the big club in a starting role if he fares well in his MLB debut. He'll get a soft landing spot against a weak White Sox lineup, and he should at least make for a decent streaming target for strikeouts. Since making the jump from Double-A Erie to Toledo in early May, Madden has recorded 102 punchouts across 79 innings, but his 7.97 ERA and 1.77 WHIP over 18 starts at Triple-A illustrate the damage he could inflict on fantasy managers' ratios.
