Troy Melton Headed to the Bullpen
Troy Melton will be shifting from the rotation to the bullpen, reports Chris McCosky of The Detroit News. The rookie was lit up in his first start on July 23 to the tune of six runs in five innings, but bounced back with seven shutout innings against the Diamondbacks on July 28. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to earn another turn in the rotation with the Tigers acquiring both Chris Paddack and Charlie Morton at the trade deadline. The 24-year-old can be safely disregarded for fantasy purposes, although Detroit will be hoping for some meaningful relief innings from him as they prep for a probable playoff run.
