Detroit Tigers send Justyn-Henry Malloy to Triple-A Toledo as Chris Paddack returns
"In three games, Malloy went 1-for-2 with one walk across three plate appearances. The 25-year-old didn't start in any of the four games while he was on the active roster, though he came off the bench in three games, including twice as a pinch-hitter. The Tigers called on Malloy as a pinch-hitter Friday, Sept. 5, in a 7-5 loss to the White Sox, replacing Parker Meadows for a favorable matchup with left-handed reliever Tyler Gilbert with two outs in the seventh inning."
"As for Paddack, he returns to the Tigers after spending three days with his family. The 29-year-old owns a 5.37 ERA in the 2025 season, including a 6.89 ERA across 31⅓ innings in seven games (six starts) since the Tigers traded for him from the Minnesota Twins at the July 31 trade deadline. In his first relief appearance, he surrendered six runs over 1⅓ innings in Tuesday's 12-5 loss to the Mets."
Right-handed reliever Chris Paddack returned to the Detroit Tigers after a three-day absence for a family bereavement. The team optioned designated hitter Justyn-Henry Malloy to Triple-A Toledo to clear a roster spot. Malloy had three plate appearances across three games, going 1-for-2 with a walk, and did not start during his recent active-roster stint. He drew a pinch-hit walk on Sept. 5 and recorded an RBI double on Sept. 2 while playing first base for the first time in his MLB career. Paddack, shifted from the rotation to the bullpen, has a 5.37 ERA for 2025 and a 6.89 ERA over 31⅓ innings since the July 31 trade; his first relief outing with the club yielded six runs in 1⅓ innings.
