"Right-hander Beau Brieske has been on Triple-A Toledo's injured list since July 10 due to elbow soreness, and Tigers GM Jeff Greenberg told reporters (including the Detroit News' Chris McCosky) yesterday that the reliever had a setback during a recent bullpen session. As a result, Brieske will be shut down for the next 4-6 weeks, meaning that his 2025 season is all but officially over, barring both a deep Tigers postseason run and a rather improbable activation to a playoff roster."
"In 2025, however, Brieske posted only a 6.55 ERA across 22 innings and appearances, as his season was impacted by injuries even before his elbow soreness - ankle problems hampered Brieske in Spring Training and led to an early-season IL placement. The bottom fell out when Brieske was charged for five runs in just a third of an inning on June 11, and he was optioned to Triple-A the next day."
Beau Brieske has been on Triple-A Toledo's injured list since July 10 with elbow soreness and suffered a bullpen setback that led to a 4–6 week shutdown, effectively ending his 2025 season absent a deep playoff run. Surgery is not yet being pursued. Brieske previously missed time for forearm and ankle issues and has not undergone major arm surgery. A 2019 27th-round pick, he debuted in 2022 as a starter and shifted to multi-inning relief and opener roles. He posted a 3.86 ERA over 184 1/3 innings from 2022–24 but had a 6.55 ERA in 2025 through 22 innings. He is arbitration-controlled through 2028 and is due a minimal raise on his $1.025MM salary.
