After losing the starting launcher Reese Olson for the rest of the season, the Detroit Tigers quickly strengthened their pitching staff in a profession with a division rival on Monday.
With Olson (shoulder strain) going to the list of wounded 60 days earlier during the day, Detroit acquired the right -handers Chris Paddack and Randy Dobnak of the Minnesota twins in exchange for the Enrique minor league recipient Jimenez.
The main element of trade is Paddack, a 29-year-old launcher who was 3-9 with an MPM of 4.95 in 21 outings for Minnesota this season. He will seek to replace the starter’s outlet n ° 2 of the Tigers, which made 5 2/3 rounds during his last outing against the Blue Jays on Thursday.
Olson, 25, would have felt discomfort during an enclosure session on Saturday and was then closed on Monday. The right-hander was 4-4 with an MPM of 3.45 and 65 stick withdrawals on 68.2 rounds launched in 13 departures this season. In 56 career games (53 departures) out of three campaigns, Olson amassed a record of 13-19 with an MPM of 3.54 and 269 stick withdrawals in 284.2 innings.
In 106 games (103 departures) for the Padres de San Diego (2019-21) and the twins (2022-25), Paddack amassed a career record of 30-33 with an MPM of 4.49 and 500 stick withdraws on 534 2/3 sleeves.
He will join a Strait rotation which features Tarik Skubal and has the sixth best era of baseball at 3.58. The Tigers, who run the central of the American League, sought to consolidate the end of their rotation after abandoning 12 of their last 14 games.
Dobnak, 30, is a former Minnesota who has made six relief appearances in the past two years, one in 2025 and five last season. In 39 career outings (21 departures), Dobnak has a 9-12 file with an MPM of 4.86 and two stops. He spent most of this season as a starter for Triple-A St. Paul, where he shaped a record 1-7 and 7.12 MPM. He has a salary of $ 3 million this year and a team option of $ 6 million for next year, although tigers can choose to take over $ 1 million.
Jimenez, 19, is from Venezuela currently playing the recruit ball. He posted an oblique bar line .250 / .339 / .440 with six circuits and four interceptions in 48 games for the team of the Florida Complex League of Tigers this season. MLB Pipeline classified the Jimenez hitting the switch as perspective n ° 14 in the tiger system.
