The latest outright assignments…
- The Tigers outrighted the contract of right-hander Collin Balester to Triple-A Toledo, the team announced. They had designated Balester for assignment last week after he posted a 6.50 ERA with nearly as many walks (11) as strikeouts (12) in 18 innings.
1st round pick on Ryan Perry…officially wasted.
Trading Perry for Ballester was a change of scenery trade anyway. Neither of them showed any signs of possible consistent success.
