Placed on COVID IL Del Pozo (jaw) was placed on the COVID-19 injured list Friday. Per Evan Woodbery of MLive.com, he tested positive for the virus and is symptomatic.

Impact The positive test means he'll likely be required to quarantine for 10 days before returning to the club. The left-hander appeared to be close to returning from an 11-day absence after being hit by a line drive on the jaw Aug. 30, but his move to COVID-IL means he won't return to the mound until the late stages of September.

Detroit Tigers' Miguel Del Pozo shakes off scary play, has perspective on MLB opportunity Miguel Del Pozo didn't know if any teams would want him for the 2021 season, but the Detroit Tigers took a chance in January.

AUGUST 31, 2021 • FREEP.COM

Throwing bullpen Tuesday Del Pozo (jaw) will have an idea of when he might return after his bullpen session Tuesday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

Impact Manager AJ Hinch said Del Pozo is still dealing with soreness in his jaw, but he was cleared of a concussion and should be ready to pitch again fairly soon. With rosters expanding to 28 on Wednesday, the lefty will likely remain with the Tigers even if he requires a few more days to recover.

Cleared of concussion Del Pozo passed his initial concussion tests after being struck in the jaw by a line drive in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Twins, Phil Miller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Impact After being recalled from Triple-A Toledo prior to the contest, Del Pozo was summoned from the bullpen to begin the ninth inning. Just two pitches into his appearance, he took a liner from Max Kepler off the face, but he still recorded the out and appears to have escaped from the play with little more than a laceration on his chin that required stitches. Del Pozo can be viewed as day-to-day heading into the Tigers' three-game series with the Athletics that begins Tuesday.

Impact Del Pozo threw only two pitches during the ninth inning before struck and leaving the contest. The left-hander should be considered day-to-day as he continues to be evaluated.

Moves back to big club The Tigers recalled Del Pozo from Triple-A Toledo on Monday.

Impact He'll give the Tigers a fresh arm out of the bullpen for Monday's make-up game with the Twins after Detroit optioned reliever Jason Foley to Triple-A following Sunday's loss to Toronto. Since being demoted to Toledo in mid-July after a brief stint with the big club, Del Pozo has submitted a 2.40 ERA and 1.07 WHIP in 15 innings out of the Triple-A bullpen.

AUGUST 30, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Sent back to Toledo Del Pozo was optioned back to Triple-A Toledo after serving as the club's 27th man for Saturday's doubleheader against the Twins.

Impact Del Pozo did not appear in either game of the twin bill and will now return to Toledo for the time being. While the right-hander has made three trips to the big leagues this season, he's appeared in just one game for Detroit, allowing two runs in two-thirds of an inning June 28. Del Pozo, who has a solid 2.78 ERA and 0.81 WHIP at Triple-A, figures to be a strong candidate to rejoin the Tigers' bullpen when the club becomes in need of another arm later this season.

JULY 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Promoted for twin bill Del Pozo was recalled from Triple-A Toledo to serve as the 27th man for Friday's doubleheader against the Twins.

Impact The left-hander will join Detroit for the doubleheader to begin the second half of the season, and he'll return to Triple-A following the contests unless the Tigers make an additional roster move. Del Pozo struggled in his lone big-league appearance this season, allowing two runs on three hits while recording two outs.

Recalled to Detroit Del Pozo was recalled from Triple-A Toledo on Sunday.

Impact Del Pozo will take Michael Fulmer's spot on the 26-man roster after Fulmer landed on the injured list with a right cervical spine strain in his neck. This will mark Del Pozo's second stint in the big leagues this season, though he did not make an appearance during his brief two games with Detroit in mid-June. The lefty most recently pitched in the majors in 2020, blowing two saves while allowing seven earned runs across 3.2 innings for Pittsburgh. The reliever has posted a 1.02 ERA and 0.58 WHIP across 17.2 innings with Toledo this season.

Optioned to Triple-A Del Pozo was optioned to Triple-A Toledo on Wednesday.

Impact The left-hander had his contract selected by the Tigers on Tuesday, but he'll head back to Triple-A after a two-game stint in the majors in which he didn't take the mound. Del Pozo has pitched well at Toledo this season with a 1.32 ERA, 0.53 WHIP and 17:3 K:BB across 13.2 innings.

JUNE 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Called up by Tigers The Tigers selected Del Pozo's contract from Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday.

Impact The lefty has excelled in Toledo's bullpen this year, posting a 1.32 ERA and 17:3 SO/W ratio in 13.2 innings. It remains to be seen whether Del Pozo's minor-league success can, unlike in prior years, translate to the big-league level, as he pitched to a 10.61 ERA with the Angels in 2019 and a 17.18 ERA with the Pirates last year.

Optioned after rough outing Del Pozo was optioned to the Pirates' alternate training site Saturday.

Impact Del Pozo made a relief appearance in Friday's game against the Tigers but gave up three runs on five hits and no walks while striking out two over two innings. He largely struggled over five outings this year but will attempt to right the ship at alternate camp. Right-hander Nick Mears' contract was selected in a corresponding move.
