  • Tigers' Brenan Hanifee: Serving as opener Friday

    Hanifee will serve as the Tigers' opening pitcher in Friday's game versus the White Sox.

    It's the third opener assignment this season for Hanifee, who went a combined 2.2 scoreless innings the first two times. Casey Mize is one candidate for bulk relief Friday, but the Tigers have not divulged their plans.

  • Tigers' Brenan Hanifee: Opening Saturday

    Hanifee will serve as the Tigers' opener in Saturday's game against the Athletics.

    Hanifee has posted an impressive 1.47 ERA and 0.98 WHIP through 18.1 innings in the majors this season, and he'll now be trusted to make his second career MLB start. He will likely be removed from the game after an inning or two, at which point Brant Hurter is expected to pitch in bulk relief.

  • Tigers' Brenan Hanifee: Sustains first loss Monday

    Hanifee (0-1) allowed an unearned run on two hits across an inning of relief to take the loss Monday against the Padres. He struck out two.

    Hanifee didn't help his own cause, as a throwing error on a soft single by Mason McCoy allowed the batter to get into scoring position with one out in the third inning. Luis Arraez then drove McCoy in, which saddled Hanifee with his first loss in the big leagues across 15 appearances the last two years. The 26-year-old righty has actually pitched well for the Tigers, as he lowered his season ERA to 1.53 after not allowing any earned runs Monday. Hanifee should continue to see steady work out of Detroit's bullpen during the final month of the campaign.

  • Tigers' Brenan Hanifee: Covers two innings Friday

    Hanifee tossed two scoreless innings of relief in Friday's 3-0 loss to the Yankees. He walked one and struck out two.

    Hanifee followed opener Beau Brieske, who worked the first inning. Hanifee was effective once again in relief, and after a rough first appearance of the season back on Aug. 1, the righty has now logged nine scoreless innings in his last five outings. The 26-year-old is still in a mostly low-leverage role at the moment, but Hanifee could move up the bullpen pecking order if he keeps pitching well.

  • Tigers' Brenan Hanifee: Opening Thursday

    Hanifee will serve as the Tigers' opener during Thursday's game against the Mariners.

    Hanifee has allowed two earned runs in four innings since having his contract selected from Triple-A on Aug. 1, and he'll now make his first MLB start after pitching the ninth inning of Wednesday's contest. The 26-year-old righty worked primarily as a starter throughout his minor-league career up until this season and is still capable of pitching multiple innings, but he will likely be pulled after a frame or two Thursday for Kenta Maeda, who is expected to pitch in bulk relief.

  • Tigers' Brenan Hanifee: Contract selected

    The Tigers selected Hanifee's contract from Triple-A Toledo on Thursday, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

    Hanifee made three appearances with the Tigers last season but has spent all of 2024 with Toledo after re-signing on a minor-league contract. The 26-year-old has put up a 5.17 ERA at Toledo, but a 53:14 K:BB over 47 innings in more promising.

  • Tigers' Brenan Hanifee: Reassigned to minors

    The Tigers reassigned Hanifee to minor-league camp Thursday.

    Hanifee made three relief appearances for the Tigers during the 2023 campaign and rejoined Detroit on a minor-league deal in the offseason after being non-tendered in November, but he never looked to be a realistic candidate to win a spot in the Opening Day bullpen. The 25-year-old right-hander is expected to report to Triple-A Toledo to begin the 2024 season.

  • Tigers' Brenan Hanifee: Back with Tigers on MiLB deal

    Hanifee signed a minor-league contract with the Tigers on Friday and received an invitation to major-league spring training, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    The Tigers non-tendered Hanifee earlier in the offseason, but the team will keep him around on a minor-league pact. Hanifee gave up three runs across five innings in three appearances with the Tigers last season, and he logged a 4.38 ERA through 90.1 frames at Triple-A Toledo.

  • Brenan Hanifee: Heads into free agency

    Hanifee was non-tendered by Detroit on Friday.

    Hanifee was designated for assignment by the Tigers earlier this week and is now officially a free agent. The 25-year-old right-hander surrendered three earned runs over his first five major-league innings in 2023 and had a 4.38 ERA in 90.1 innings of work at the Triple-A level.

  • Tigers' Brenan Hanifee: Pushed off 40-man roster

    Hanifee was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Tuesday.

    Hanifee made his major-league debut this past season at age 25, but he gave up three earned runs in five innings of relief and posted a 4.38 ERA across 90.1 innings with Triple-A Toledo. He is now off the 40-man roster in Detroit.

  • Tigers' Brenan Hanifee: Set for big-league debut

    Hanifee's contract will be selected from Triple-A Toledo prior to Wednesday's game against the Dodgers, Cody Elliot of the Daily News Record reports.

    A 25-year-old righty who has spent the bulk of his pro career in the Orioles' system, Hanifee joined the Tigers on a minor-league deal this year. He underwent Tommy John surgery in May of 2021 and logged a 4.38 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 82 strikeouts in 90.1 innings this year for the Mud Hens. Look for Hanifee to work in low-leverage, multi-inning relief situations.

  • Orioles' Brenan Hanifee: Back in action at Double-A

    Hanifee (elbow) has posted a 6.00 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 17:7 K:BB in 15 innings over five appearances for Double-A Bowie since returning from the 7-day injured list July 15.

    Hanifee was sidelined for approximately 13 months while recovering from May 2021 Tommy John surgery before he was cleared to begin a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Florida Complex League in late June. He made three appearances in the lower levels of the minors before debuting for Bowie in mid-July.

  • Orioles' Brenan Hanifee: Starts throwing again

    Hanifee (elbow) resumed throwing off flat ground in January during the Orioles' minor-league minicamp, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    Hanifee is rehabbing from the Tommy John surgery he underwent May 26, 2021, so even though he's throwing again, he's still unlikely to make his 2022 debut until around mid-season at the earliest. The 23-year-old right-hander posted a 4.60 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 78:57 K:BB in 129 innings in his last professional season in 2019 at the High-A level.

  • Orioles' Brenan Hanifee: Undergoes Tommy John surgery

    Hanifee underwent successful Tommy John surgery Wednesday, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

    Hanifee had been on the 7-day minor-league injured list since mid-May, and he'll miss the remainder of the season following his surgery. The right-hander didn't make any appearances to begin the year, and he could miss the start of the 2022 campaign while he recovers.
