Chris Paddack Moving to the Bullpen
Chris Paddack has been moved out of the rotation and into the bullpen, according to manager A.J. Hinch. Paddack has been horrible with a 5.40 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, and allowed eight home runs since being acquired by the Tigers at the trade deadline. It sounds like this is going to be a permanent move barring any injuries to other starters. The assumption is that Sawyer Gipson-Long will take over in the starting rotation. Paddack is available out of the bullpen during Tuesday's game. Neither pitcher has performed well enough on the mound to warrant rostering in fantasy formats. UPDATE: In addition to being moved to a relief role, the Tigers will place Paddack on the bereavement list on Wednesday.
