Tigers Recall Pitcher for Monday’s Start; Rookie Reliever Optioned to Toledo

DETROIT, MICHIGAN, JUL 7 – Keider Montero returns to the Tigers' rotation to address injuries to key pitchers Jackson Jobe and Sawyer Gipson-Long, increasing pitching staff depth during ongoing recovery periods.

  • On Monday, July 7, 2025, the Detroit Tigers brought back right-handed pitcher Keider Montero to start their game against the Tampa Bay Rays at Comerica Park.
  • Following a series of roster adjustments, including sending left-handed pitcher Bailey Horn back to Triple-A Toledo after Detroit's victory over Cleveland last Sunday, Keider Montero was recalled. Since March 22, Montero, 25, has been moved between the majors and minors five times.
  • Montero pitched six innings allowing one run, four hits, and one walk, striking out four while combining with three relievers to limit the Rays to five total hits in a 4-1 Tigers victory.
  • Montero improved his record to 4-1 with a 3.31 ERA across 11 appearances as both a starter and reliever, while the Tigers extended their winning streak to four games and surpassed a.500 winning percentage by 24 games for the first time in over a decade, dating back to 2013.
  • The win highlighted the Tigers' pitching depth amid injuries to key starters, noting that the bullpen remains challenged and the team looks forward to returns from pitchers Alex Lange and José Urquidy.
