Set to pitch Wednesday Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said Tuesday that Montero will be called up from Triple-A Toledo to pitch Wednesday against the Phillies, though it hasn't been decided whether the right-...

Impact The 23-year-old joined the Tigers ahead of Tuesday's contest and is set to make his second MLB appearance in Wednesday's series finale. Montero made his big-league debut in late May and surrendered four runs on five hits with five strikeouts across 4.1 innings.

Likely to start Wednesday Montero is expected to start Wednesday's game against the Phillies, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

Impact While the Tigers haven't announced anything yet, they are listing Wednesday's starter as TBD and Montero was spotted in the clubhouse at Comerica Park on Tuesday. Mason Englert is expected to be optioned to Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move. Montero, 23, allowed four runs in 4.1 innings in his major-league debut versus the Pirates last month. It would appear Wednesday's appearance will be another spot start for the righty and he'll head back to Toledo after the game.

Returned to Triple-A The Tigers returned Montero to Triple-A Toledo after Wednesday's doubleheader with the Pirates.

Impact Montero was dealt the loss in his MLB debut after striking out five but giving up four earned runs on five hits and one walk in 4.1 innings in the Tigers' 10-2 loss to the Pirates in the second game of the twin bill. He'll now return to Toledo as organizational rotation depth. The 23-year-old righty owns a 4.40 ERA and 1.49 WHIP through nine starts in the minors, and his rough debut could cause the Tigers to look elsewhere in their farm system if they need to fill a rotation spot later in the season.

Hit hard in big-league debut Montero (0-1) took the loss in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader split with the Pirates, giving up four runs on five hits and a walk over 4.1 innings. He struck out five.

Impact Making his MLB debut, Montero showed some flashes of upside but got hit hard when he left the ball up in the zone, serving up a three-run homer to Andrew McCutchen in the third inning and a solo shot to Nick Gonzales in the fourth. Montero got the hook after 87 pitches (56 strikes), and he'll likely head back to Triple-A Toledo following the twin bill. The 23-year-old righty will need to work on his efficiency if he wants to earn a longer look in the majors -- he has yet to complete five innings in any of his 10 starts this season, at any level.

Recalled ahead of MLB debut The Tigers recalled Montero from Triple-A Toledo ahead of his scheduled start in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Pirates.

Impact Because they designated Montero as their 27th man for the twin bill, the Tigers waited until after their 8-0 win in the opening game of the day before activating him. The 23-year-old right-hander will make his MLB debut Wednesday before presumably heading back to Toledo immediately after the start. Over his nine outings with the Triple-A club this season spanning 30.2 innings, Montero has accrued a 4.40 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 36:17 K:BB.
