Tigers Designate Mason Englert For Assignment
The Detroit Tigers designated right-hander Mason Englert for assignment on Friday in order to make room on the 40-man roster for recently-signed right-handed starter Jack Flaherty. Englert will now be subject to waivers after going 5-3 with a 5.45 ERA (5.41 FIP), a 1.44 WHIP and a 57:22 K:BB in 77 2/3 inning over 43 appearances (two starts) for Detroit in his first two major-league seasons. The 25-year-old was originally a fourth-round selection by the Texas Rangers back in 2018 out of a high school in Texas. He could attract some interest around the league on waivers, but wherever he lands, he'll most likely be ticketed for a spot at Triple-A to begin the 2025 season because of the fact that he has minor-league options remaining. President Scott Harris said he'd love to find a way to keep Englert around, but with interest around the league expected, a trade is a strong possibility.
