Remains in organization Bristo cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Toledo on Sunday.

Cast off 40-man roster Bristo was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Sunday.

Impact Bristo served as the 27th man for the Tigers' doubleheader against Atlanta on Wednesday but will lose his spot on the 40-man roster after Detroit acquired Blair Calvo from Colorado on Sunday. If Bristo goes unclaimed on waivers, it wouldn't be surprising to see him remain at Triple-A Toledo.

Returns to minors The Tigers returned Bristo to Triple-A Toledo following Wednesday's doubleheader against Atlanta.

Impact Bristo was promoted to serve as Detroit's 27th man for Wednesday's doubleheader and allowed two runs across two innings during Game 1. The 28-year-old reliever holds an 8.77 ERA and 1.75 WHIP across 25.2 innings in Triple-A, making it unlikely he returns to the majors until he shows drastic improvement.

Joins parent club for doubleheader The Tigers called Bristo up from Triple-A Toledo to serve as their 27th man for Wednesday's doubleheader with Atlanta.

Impact Bristo will give Detroit a multi-inning option out of the bullpen for the twin bill before he heads back to Toledo on Thursday. The right-hander has an unblemished ERA at the big-league level across five innings in two appearances between the Tigers and Rays, but he had been far less impressive at Toledo (8.10 ERA, 1.79 WHIP in 16.2 innings).

Optioned back to Triple-A Bristo was optioned Wednesday to Triple-A Toledo, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Impact This move frees up a 26-man roster spot for Reese Olson, who is scheduled to make his MLB debut in Friday's series opener against the White Sox. Bristo drew just one appearance during his short stay in the Tigers' bullpen.

Recalled from Triple-A Bristo was recalled from Triple-A Toledo by the Tigers on Tuesday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

Claimed off waivers Bristo was claimed off waivers by the Tigers on Monday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Impact The Rays designated Bristo for assignment over the weekend and he has now latched onto another organization. Bristo, 28, tossed three scoreless relief innings for Tampa Bay in his major-league debut last month.

Designated for assignment Bristo was designated for assignment by the Rays on Saturday.

Impact This move frees up a 40-man roster spot for reliever Javy Guerra, who has been acquired via trade from the Brewers. Bristo earned a three-inning save in his MLB debut earlier this month with Tampa Bay, but that remains the 28-year-old right-hander's only career appearance in the bigs.

Optioned to Triple-A Bristo was optioned to Triple-A Durham by the Rays on Friday, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

Impact Bristo picked up a three-inning save in his major-league debut Thursday versus the Red Sox, not yielding a hit and fanning four along the way. Unfortunately for him, he wasn't going to be available for a few days after throwing 42 pitches, hence the demotion. Bristo put himself in a good spot to earn another look down the line, though.

Earns save in debut Bristo struck out four over three hitless innings Thursday, earning a save in a 9-3 victory over the Red Sox.

Impact While Bristo shouldn't be expected to receive many three-inning save opportunities, it was quite a debut for the 28-year-old righthander. He'd issue just one walk while striking out four to close out the Rays' 13-consecutive victory. Despite the impressive performance, Bristo won't likely serve more than an occasional long relief role in Tampa Bay. He posted a 4.56 ERA in 53.1 innings last season with Triple-A Scranton-Wilkes-Barre before signing a minor-league deal with the Rays in January.
