Tigers' Tyler Owens: Sent to Triple-A
The Tigers optioned Owens to Triple-A Toledo on Sunday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
The 24-year-old made a strong impression during spring training with four strikeouts and no walks over 3.1 scoreless innings, but he'll still end up beginning the season in the minors. Owens could quickly be called up for his MLB debut if he's able to replicate the 2.96 ERA he posted at the Triple-A level in 2024.

Tigers' Tyler Owens: Making impression in camp
Owens is looking sharp so far in spring training and could push for an MLB bullpen role this season, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
Owens, who was acquired last summer in the trade that sent Carson Kelly to Texas, is just 5-foot-10, but he has a unique delivery and can reach the upper 90s with his fastball. The 24-year-old pitched well following the trade, recording a 2.80 ERA and 35 strikeouts across 35.1 innings with Double-A Erie, and he figures to make the jump to Triple-A this year. Owens is also already on the 40-man roster, so if he continues to pitch well in the minors, his MLB debut might not be too far off as a member of Detroit's bullpen.

Tigers' Tyler Owens: Shielded from Rule 5 Draft

Owens started the year with Double-A Frisco for the Rangers, but he was traded to the Tigers in July. He resumed play with Double-A Erie, where he notched a 3.31 ERA in 16.1 innings of work. The 23-year-old is now protected from the Rule 5 Draft.

Tigers' Tyler Owens: Headed to Detroit
The Tigers acquired Owens and catcher Liam Hicks from the Rangers on Sunday in exchange for catcher Carson Kelly, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Owens will be on the move for the second time in his young career, as Texas had previously acquired him from Atlanta in January. The right-hander compiled a respectable 2.80 ERA and 1.20 WHIP with 35 strikeouts over 35.1 innings in 26 appearances with Double-A Frisco this season.

Rangers' Tyler Owens: Shipped to Texas
The Rangers acquired Owens from Atlanta on Friday in exchange for J.P. Martinez.
Texas needed to clear a spot on its 40-man roster for the addition of David Robertson. Owens does not need to be added to the 40-man yet but is a nice-looking relief prospect who held a 3.03 ERA and 67:22 K:BB over 65.1 frames between High-A Rome and Double-A Mississippi in 2023. The 23-year-old will likely report to Double-A Frisco to start the 2024 season.
