3 years agoThe Detroit Tigers selected the contract of right-hander Wily Peralta from Triple-A Toledo on Saturday and designated right-hander Bryan Garcia for assignment in a corresponding move. Peralta got a late start to spring training and was forced to begin the regular season in the minors, but he's now joining the major league roster and could serve a key multi-inning role out of Detroit's bullpen. Peralta struck out four hitters in 4 1/3 minor league innings to begin the year. The 32-year-old veteran won't have any fantasy appeal in a relief role, but he could eventually join the Tigers rotation at some point. Peralta had a 3.07 ERA, 1.33 WHIP, 58 strikeouts and 38 walks in 93 2/3 innings over 19 outings (18 starts) last year for the Tigers.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
