Tigers Option Zack Short, Activate Jose Urena From Injured List

By TC Zencka | June 5, 2021 at 4:36pm CDT

The Tigers optioned infielder Zack Short to Triple-A Toledo after today’s ballgame, the team announced. Starter Jose Urena will be reinstated from the 10-day injured list tomorrow. He will re-join the rotation.

Short was recalled on his 26th birthday, May 29th. Though he did not appear in a game on his birthday, he did make three appearances, starting two games at shortstop. He made just nine plate appearances, but Short can consider it a success after going 2-for-6 at the plate with three walks, a couple of runs, and his first career stolen base.

All that said, the Tigers will welcome Urena back to the rotation, as they’re a little short-handed on the hill. The Tigers not only placed Spencer Turnbull on the 10-day IL, but an injured list stint could follow for Michael Fulmer as well. He has been unavailable the past couple of days because of arm fatigue, tweets Chris McCosky of The Detroit News. Fulmer has mostly pitched out of the pen, but he’s been a reliable source of innings with 35 innings pitched across 20 outings (four starts). His 3.34 ERA/3.57 FIP are the best run prevention numbers posted by Fulmer since his rookie campaign in 2016.

Urena has provided solid innings through ten starts this season, and the Tigers will hope he can get right back to it. He owns a 4.14 ERA/3.84 FIP across 54 1/3 innings on the season.

    Tiger pitchers and injuries just keep coming, Fulmer again. Now Turnbull. Why so many injuries with not many innings pitched?

      I would like to hear some update on Tehran. Short stints on the IL are to be expected. It will allow some additional opportunities for prospects to get their footing. Urena is gone at years end, so should be trade fodder. Got to have someone ready to step up when he’s gone.

        Tehran still has not started throwing and is expected to be on the IL for a longer time.

    Wouldn’t the Tigers be a better team if Zach Short was the everyday SS and Derek Hill was the starting CF vs. only a defensive substitute?
