Hanifee will hold a middle-relief role in the Tigers bullpen.

The Tigers have optioned right-hander Brenan Hanifee to Triple-A Toledo.

Fantasy Impact

Hanifee has pitched relatively well for the Tigers this season, posting a 3.29 ERA in 14 outings. However, the Tigers added two pitchers to their active roster ahead of Friday's game against the Guardians, thus Hanifee will head to Toledo for now. His 5.03 xFIP and 4.73 SIERA suggest regression was heading Hanifee's direction prior to his demotion.

Hanifee returns to a middle-relief role in the Tigers bullpen with Burch Smith placed on the injured list.

Tigers right-hander Brenan Hanifee yielded a hit and an earned run in one inning as the club's opener Friday versus the Blue Jays.

Fantasy Impact

The run Hanifee surrendered was an inherited one, as he surrendered a leadoff double to Kazuma Okamoto, who scored on Ernie Clement's double off of left-hander Brant Hurter. The 27-year-old has posted a healthy 1.93 ERA in seven outings since his promotion to the big leagues, but he is completely off the fantasy radar as a low-leverage arm who has served as the club's opener on two occasions this season.
