Earns win in relief Hurter (4-3) worked around a hit to toss 1.1 scoreless innings of relief and earn the win Thursday against the Guardians. He struck out two.

Impact Detroit starter Troy Melton only covered 3.2 innings before Hurter came on and worked through the fifth in a critical game that saw the Tigers tie the Guardians atop the AL Central. The lefty logged his 12th game without allowing an earned run in his last 13 appearances, and he now has a sparkling 2.47 ERA for the season. Melton has also struck out 66 batters in 62 innings this year, making him one of the top weapons in Detroit's bullpen for the second straight season.

Back with big-league club Hurter was recalled from Triple-A Toledo on Monday, per MLB's transactions log.

Impact Hurter missed time at the end of August due to a back injury, but he's since returned to health and will now get a chance to help the major-league team down the stretch of the regular season. He's performed well in his last 10 appearances for Detroit, posting a 1.20 ERA and 1.27 WHIP with 16 strikeouts over 15.0 innings.

Healthy again at Triple-A Hurter (back) has allowed four earned runs on five hits and no walks while striking out two batters over 3.2 innings in three appearances for Triple-A Toledo since being reinstated...

Impact Hurter missed a little under two weeks due to the back issue, so he didn't require a rehab assignment at a lower-level affiliate before he made his return to the Toledo bullpen. The Tigers demoted Hurter to Triple-A on Aug. 17 in what appeared to mostly be a roster-management decision, as the southpaw had turned in a 2.45 ERA with 62 punchouts over 58.2 innings with the big club on the season. However, with Hurter having since picked up the back injury and not yet pitching effectively for Toledo since his return from the IL, the Tigers haven't been motivated to call him back up.

SEPTEMBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Rehab assignment pending Hurter (back) could start a rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo this weekend, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Impact Hurter was sent down to Triple-A on Aug. 17 and was placed on the injured list with back soreness without making an appearance for Toledo. The 26-year-old has posted a 2.45 ERA in 58.2 innings with the Tigers this season, and once healthy, he's expected to rejoin the big-league bullpen for the tail end of the regular season.

Injury to Tigers' pitcher at Triple-A feels like it could have serious implications Brant Hurter has yet to pitch in a game since the Tigers optioned him to Triple-A Toledo on Aug. 17 due to lower back soreness.

Placed on minor-league IL Hurter was placed on the minor-league injured list with back stiffness Monday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Impact Hurter hasn't pitched since being sent down to Triple-A Toledo on Aug. 17, which is now understood to be the result of a back issue. The left-hander has posted a 2.45 ERA and 1.30 WHIP with 62 strikeouts over 58.2 innings in 38 appearances, including four starts, with the Tigers this year. Hurter is likely a part of Detroit's major-league plans moving forward this season, so they'll likely be cautious in their approach to getting him back on the mound.

Dispatched to Triple-A The Tigers optioned Hurter to Triple-A Toledo on Sunday.

Impact Hurter hasn't given up an earned run in his past nine appearances and has a 2.45 ERA in 38 major-league appearances this season, so it's a tough-luck demotion for the left-hander. The 26-year-old also had a 2.58 ERA over 45.1 innings with the Tigers in 2024, so he should be back up with Detroit before the end of the season.

Snags win in relief Hurter (3-3) tossed 3.1 scoreless innings of relief to earn the win Tuesday against the Diamondbacks. He allowed one hit and struck out three.

Impact Detroit starter Casey Mize only lasted 1.2 innings during an uneven outing, but Hurter righted the ship for the Tigers and then scooped up the win as the team cruised to an easy 12-2 victory. After a rough patch in late June and into early July, the lefty has been better lately, compiling 9.2 scoreless innings with 11 strikeouts over his last four appearances. Overall, Hurter has a strong 2.68 ERA to go along with 58 strikeouts across 53.2 innings this season, making him one of the Tigers' better bullpen options.

Pitches better Saturday Hurter tossed two scoreless innings of relief in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Rangers. He walked one and struck out three.

Impact Hurter had been struggling recently prior to Saturday, as he had a 10.13 ERA and 3.38 WHIP across his previous 10 appearances. The lefty still has a strong 3.13 ERA overall, which reflects his effective performance earlier in the season. Hurter was a bullpen weapon for the Tigers last year, posting a 2.58 ERA and 0.88 WHIP in 45.1 regular-season innings, so he should be able to put his recent slump behind him and string together a few more good outings.

Records hold Saturday Hurter tossed a scoreless inning of relief to record a hold in Saturday's 1-0 win over the Guardians.

Impact After starter Casey Mize dazzled over seven scoreless innings, Hurter worked the eighth for his third hold of the year before Tommy Kahnle closed things out in the ninth. Hurter has been a bit rocky recently, allowing 12 runs (six earned) across seven innings in his last eight appearances. However, the lefty's numbers on the season are still strong, as he's sitting with a 2.72 ERA and 45 strikeouts through 43 innings out of Detroit's bullpen.

Takes loss as opener Hurter (2-3) allowed four runs (no earned) on two hits and two walks while retiring only two batters to take the loss Saturday against the Rays. He also hit a batter.

Impact Hurter served as the opener but struggled with control and couldn't complete the first inning, and he was ultimately pulled after tossing 31 pitches (16 for strikes). The lefty has now allowed 11 runs across 10 innings pitched this month, though only four of them have been earned, and he still has a solid 2.29 ERA overall. Hurter should continue to work as a valuable reliever for the Tigers who also opens games on occasion.
