Spencer Torkelson To Be Called Up

2 years agoThe Detroit Tigers will call up rookie first baseman Spencer Torkelson and infielder Ryan Kreidler when rosters expand on Thursday. Torkelson was optioned to Triple-A Toledo on July 17 after hitting just .197/.282/.295 with five home runs, 21 RBI, 25 runs scored and 76 strikeouts in his first 83 major league games for Detroit. The Tigers always planned on bringing him back up when rosters expanded. The 23-year-old hit .228/.347/.394 with five long balls, 17 RBI, 18 runs scored, a stolen base and 40 strikeouts in 150 plate appearances over 34 games with Toledo, so it's not like he killed it on the farm. Torkelson probably isn't worth the trouble in shallow mixed leagues to close out the season, and he could be sharing time at first base with Harold Castro.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
