Alex Lange Nearing Return, But Faces Uphill Battle for Role in Tigers Bullpen
Alex Lange (lat) made back-to-back rehab appearances at Triple-A on August 1 and 2 as he works his way back from lat surgery that has sidelined him all season. The 28-year-old former first-round pick is nearing a return but faces a crowded bullpen with Kyle Finnegan, Tommy Kahnle, and Will Vest entrenched in high-leverage roles. Lange's path to fantasy relevance will depend on whether he can regain his pre-injury velocity, particularly his fastball that once sat near 96 mph. He's a wait-and-see stash in deeper leagues but could factor into the bullpen mix if his stuff returns.
