Chad Bell Optioned, Warwick Saupold and Mike Gerber Called Up
7 years agoThe Detroit Tigers have made a series of roster moves in preparation for Friday's doubleheader with Kansas City. Reliever Chad Bell has been sent to Triple-A Toledo and fellow relief arm Warwick Saupold has been recalled. In addition, the Tigers have called up outfield prospect Mike Gerber. Bell and Saupold are essentially non-factors from a fantasy perspective. Gerber is a highly-touted prospect in the Tigers system but is off to a slow start with Toledo, hitting .229 with two homers. Last year, Gerber managed an .869 OPS on the back of 14 homers and 26 doubles between all three minor league levels. He could see decent playing time and is one to watch in AL-only and dynasty leagues.
