Tigers Claim Ty Adcock From Mariners

By Darragh McDonald | April 15, 2024 at 2:25pm CDT

The Tigers have claimed right-hander Ty Adcock off waivers from the Mariners, per announcements from both clubs. The Tigers had an open 40-man roster spot and won’t need to make a corresponding move. The righty has been optioned to Triple-A Toledo.

Adcock, 27, was drafted by the Mariners in 2019 but hasn’t been able to pitch too much since then. The pandemic wiped out the minor leagues in 2020 and then Adcock required Tommy John surgery in April of 2021, which put him out of action for that season and most of 2022.

Last year, he was able to get back on track a bit. He tossed 20 2/3 innings in the minors between High-A and Double-A with a 1.74 earned run average. He struck out 29.3% of batters faced while giving out walks at just a 6.7% clip. He was also able to make his major league debut and posted a 3.45 ERA in 15 2/3 innings. His 19% strikeout rate was a bit below average but he didn’t issue any walks.

Here in 2024, Adcock was optioned to Triple-A to start the year and got off to a shaky start, allowing two earned runs in his first 2 1/3 innings. That included three walks, though one of them was intentional. The M’s shook up their bullpen last week and Adcock got bumped off the roster.

As mentioned, the Tigers had an open roster spot, so nabbing Adcock off waivers was basically free depth for them. The righty has a very limited track record due to missing so much time but he averaged 96.6 miles per hour on his fastball in the majors last year, with his slider at 86.5 mph. Power pitchers often come with control issues but that hasn’t been the case so far in Adcock’s brief amount of official action.

Adcock will report to Toledo and look to position himself for his next big league call-up. He still has two options and just a few weeks of service time, so he could theoretically stick on the roster for many years, as long as he justifies his spot with his performance.

    Adcock is a good idea lest your bullpen start to feel empty.

    What an absolute score! He’ll fit in fine with one of the best bullpens in the American League.

      Luiz Arraez. Let him DH. Greene plays CF, Canha and Carpenter flank him and Meadows goes down to figure his issues out.

        Lets see what Wencel Perez can do in CF.

          I’m all for letting the kids play and show what they have. Perez might end up as McKinistry or Ibanez’s replacement eventually. They said Vierling was playing good D in CF so far this year too so the two of them could platoon while Meadows figures things out. I’d like to see Leonard up too when he gets healthy.

          Arraez would certainly be a nice addition near the top of their order for the right price. Too bad he is not great defensively. Keith is playing good D at 2B and decent offence and Urshela has looked good at 3B in a small sample. Still…Arraez, like Canha, gets on base and Florida is going nowhere fast so maybe theyd be inclined to sell off Ng’s big acquisition for young players with Bendix following the TB way.

    After seeing these comments, I’m not surprised none of my ideas fly here or that Chris Illich can get way with this for 10 years…..but then again, Chris Illich is probably just like you guys…….except richer.
