"Brieske has been sidelined by inflammation in his right ankle, and has been trying to play through ankle soreness for the last couple of weeks."
"The decision was then made for a proper IL stint in order to help the righty fully recover."
"Brieske's shaky numbers over the season's first three weeks might be attributed to playing hurt, with an 8.59 ERA and an 11.1% strikeout rate."
"Brieske was far more effective in 2023-24, posting a 3.59 ERA over 102 2/3 innings in a variety of roles out of the bullpen."
The Tigers placed pitcher Beau Brieske on a 15-day injured list due to right ankle inflammation, worsening after an on-field incident. Despite attempting to play through the pain, his performance suffered with an 8.59 ERA. Brenan Hanifee was brought up to fill the void. Brieske had previously shown effectiveness with a 3.59 ERA in 2023-24, but his current struggles may relate to his injury. Manager A.J. Hinch highlighted the pitcherâs physical struggles during his last outing, prompting the decision for a formal recovery period.
