Tigers Designate Anthony Misiewicz For Assignment

By Steve Adams | June 29, 2023 at 10:55am CDT

The Tigers have designated lefty Anthony Misiewicz for assignment, per a team announcement. His spot on the 40-man roster will go to left-hander Zach Logue, whose contract has been selected from Triple-A Toledo (as reported earlier this morning). Left-hander Joey Wentz has been optioned to Triple-A Toledo to open a spot for Logue on the active roster, as expected.

It’s been a tumultuous ten months for the 28-year-old Misiewicz, who had a decent 2020-21 run with the Mariners but has now been on five teams since last August. The Royals acquired Misiewicz from the Mariners just prior to last year’s trade deadline, sending cash to Seattle after the left-hander had been designated for assignment. He’s since bounced to the Cardinals and the Diamondbacks — both in cash trades — and then the Tigers via waiver claim. He’ll now find himself either traded or placed on outright waivers once again.

After pitching to a 4.43 ERA in 102 2/3 innings between Seattle and Kansas City from 2020-22, Misiewicz has been hit hard in both Arizona and Detroit this year. The southpaw has tallied just 8 1/3 frames on the season, yielding eight runs on eight hits (two homers) and three walks. He has a 4.41 ERA and 19-to-6 K/BB ratio in 16 1/3 minor league innings between the Tigers and D-backs organizations so far in 2023.

This year’s struggles notwithstanding, Misiewicz is a 28-year-old lefty who entered the year with a 4.43 ERA, two minor league option seasons remaining (this year included), a roughly average strikeout rate and better-than-average walk rates. This year’s 93.1 mph average fastball is down half a mile from last year’s levels and 1.3 mph from its 2021 peak, but Misiewicz could nonetheless appeal to other clubs looking for left-handed bullpen depth. The Tigers will have a week to find a trade partner or pass him through waivers.

    The Tigers might have gotten tired of always having to spell his name?

    I know this is off the subject. Can anyone explain to me why the Tigers don’t release Schoop and put him and us out of misery? I know they have to eat salary but I can’t see what difference it makes at this point, it’s hard to watch his at bats so give them to someone else…please.

      Schoop is an emergency option at all infield positions, apparently, even pitcher. His bat is putrid but we don’t have any other super utility options. Schoop is our latest version of Ramon Santiago.

      The glib answer is, Detroit can’t release Schoop because he’s their best reliever.

      Well, it would be glib if it wasn’t statistically so.

      As a position player, Schoop is flat dreadful. He is an absolute negative. He’ll strike out when any manner of contact is advantageous, or hit into a double play when a strike out would be far more desirable. At that combo, he is a raging success.

      Obviously, Chris Ilitch is dedicated to making his minions work for their pay – regardless of output..

      He will be gone once they activate Greene and Badoo off of the IR

    Uggghhh…Reese Olson got hurt today. He’ll probably get TJ surgery I’m guessing even though he only hot hit in the knee. It’s the in thing now 😉

    I think we figured out a spot for Schoop, he can be 5th starter, we all know pitchers don’t hit well!

    He’ll be on the Reds pitching staff next week.

    Sad thing is he’s better tham most of their dumpster dive options lately.

    Villianaire, Chris Illich, has no intention of doing anything to win until he has to……really stinks.
