Recalled, placed on 60-day IL The Tigers recalled Guenther from Triple-A Toledo and placed him on the 60-day injured list while he recovers from a left hip arthroscopy.

Impact Guenther had resided on Toledo's 7-day IL since May 30, but he was cleared to begin a rehab assignment at High-A West Michigan about three weeks later. The southpaw reliever hadn't pitched for West Michigan since June 25, however, and an explanation behind his absence has now been provided by the Tigers. He'll be added to the Tigers' 60-day IL in what's essentially a procedural move, as Guenther is considered likely to miss the rest of the season, per Chris McCosky of The Detroit News. The transaction clears a spot on the 40-man roster for lefty PJ Poulin, whose contract was selected from Triple-A.

Sidelined at Triple-A Triple-A Toledo placed Guenther on its 7-day injured list May 30 due to an unspecified injury.

Optioned to Triple-A The Tigers optioned Guenther to Triple-A Toledo on Friday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Impact Guenther has yielded seven runs (six earned) with an 8:5 K:BB over 10.1 innings with the big club this season. He's clearing out to make room on the roster for the return of Matt Vierling (shoulder).

Drawing opener assignment Guenther will serve as the Tigers' opening pitcher for Monday's game against the Cardinals, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Impact Guenther will draw his first MLB start Monday, though he hasn't covered more than two innings in any of his nine appearances between the big club and the minors this season and is unlikely to work deep into the contest. Keider Montero is slated to cover the bulk of the innings out of the bullpen once Guenther exits the game.

MAY 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Logs two scoreless innings Sunday Guenther tossed two scoreless innings of relief in Sunday's 7-0 win over the Orioles. He allowed one hit and struck out three.

Impact After starter Tarik Skubal tossed six scoreless innings, Guenther followed it up with two scoreless frames of his own. It was only the second MLB appearance of the year for the lefty reliever, who was recalled from Triple-A Toledo on Friday and dealt with a back injury earlier in the season. Guenther was effective in 2024 for the Tigers, posting a 0.86 ERA across 21 regular-season innings, and he could see his role grow if he continues to pitch well out of the bullpen.

Recalled from Triple-A The Tigers recalled Guenther from Triple-A Toledo on Friday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact He's absorbing the roster spot vacated by Bailey Horn, who was optioned to Toledo on Thursday. Guenther got a late start to the season due to lumbar spine inflammation, but he's being summoned after allowing three runs over his first 3.1 innings in the minors.

APRIL 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Starting rehab assignment Guenther (back) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Lakeland on Thursday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact Guenther has been on the 7-day injured list all season with Triple-A Toledo due to lumbar spine inflammation. He'll eventually move up to Toledo once deemed ready and could help the Tigers' bullpen at some point later this season.

Working way back from spinal injury The Tigers announced Wednesday that Guenther, who was placed on Triple-A Toledo's 7-day injured list March 28 due to lumbar spine inflammation, is scheduled to throw a bullpen sess...

Impact Detroit optioned Guenther to Triple-A on March 17 after he failed to secure a spot in the Opening Day bullpen, but he wasn't known to be dealing with an injury until Toledo deactivated him to begin the season. While the fact that he's in line to step back on the mound Friday suggests he's making progress in his recovery, the reliever probably won't be ready to make his season debut for Toledo until late April at the soonest.

APRIL 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to minors Guenther was optioned to Triple-A Toledo on Monday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Impact Guenther gave up seven earned runs in 3.2 innings this spring. His demotion clears the way for Brant Hurter to make the team as the second lefty out of the bullpen.

MARCH 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

In line for Opening Day bullpen? Guenther has a good chance to make Detroit's bullpen coming out of spring training, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

Impact Guenther saw some work with the Tigers down the stretch last season and pitched well, turning in a 0.86 ERA and 0.52 WHIP across 21 innings. The lefty could now parlay that into an Opening Day bullpen role if he has a strong spring training. Guenther would likely see low-leverage opportunities in the early going, though he could seize a larger role at some point if he continues to impress.

FEBRUARY 11, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled from Triple-A The Tigers recalled Guenther from Triple-A Toledo on Thursday.

Impact Guenther made one relief appearance with the Tigers earlier this month, allowing one earned run over 1.1 innings of work. The left-hander will likely be with the big club only for a few days until Alex Faedo is back from paternity leave.

AUGUST 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Heads back to Triple-A The Tigers optioned Guenther to Triple-A Toledo on Sunday.

Impact He'll cede his spot on the active roster to lefty Brant Hurter, who was called up from Triple-A in a corresponding move and is expected to work in bulk relief behind opening pitcher Alex Faedo in Sunday's game against the Royals. Following his promotion from Toledo on Thursday, Guenther made one appearance out of the Detroit bullpen, giving up an earned run on one hit and two hit batsmen over 1.1 innings.

AUGUST 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Summoned from minors The Tigers selected Guenther's contract from Triple-A Toledo on Thursday, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

Impact Guenther is one of the arms being added as the Tigers replace some pitchers they traded away earlier this week. The lefty holds a 3.86 ERA and 46:14 K:BB across 44.1 innings with Toledo this season. He has not made an appearance in the majors since 2021.

AUGUST 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Healthy again at Double-A Guenther (elbow) has made two relief appearances for Double-A Erie since being activated from the 7-day injured list May 29, covering two innings and striking out a batter while al...

Impact Guenther opened the season on Erie's IL while he continued his recovery from the Tommy John surgery he underwent last April. Approximately 13 months after going under the knife, Guenther made his return to game action May 9, when he he began a rehab assignment with Single-A Lakeland. After six appearances at Lakeland, the Tigers saw enough from Guenther to advance him to their Double-A affiliate.
