Won't make Opening Day roster The Tigers optioned Sommers to minor-league camp Friday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Back in Toledo The Tigers optioned Sommers to Triple-A Toledo on Thursday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Impact The 25-year-old lefty joined the big-league bullpen Tuesday when Bailey Horn went on the paternity list and will now head back to the minors following the latter's return. Sommers has given up six earned runs in just three MLB innings this year, but he's put himself in a position to audition for next year's Opening Day bullpen by turning in a 3.03 ERA and 1.08 WHIP through 35.2 frames in Triple-A.

Takes first career loss Sommers (0-1) allowed three runs on two hits across an inning of relief to take the loss in Monday's game against the Mets. He struck out one.

Impact With Detroit starter Charlie Morton only lasting 3.2 innings, Sommers came on in the middle of the contest and struggled against a potent New York lineup. The key hit against the rookie lefty was a two-RBI triple by Juan Soto, who then came around to score on a Brandon Nimmo single. Sommers has now allowed at least one run in three of his first four MLB appearances, and he's sitting with an ugly 18.00 ERA.
