The Detroit Tigers are eager to welcome back right-hander Reese Olson for their series against the Cleveland Guardians. Manager A.J. Hinch highlighted Olson's talent, noting his underrated status and the impact his return could have on the team, especially with the All-Star break looming ahead. Olson, who has been sidelined with right ring finger inflammation, posted an impressive 2.96 ERA and has shown remarkable control on his changeup, a weapon that opposes batters have struggled against, hitting just .111 off him.

In a move to fortify their bullpen, left-hander Bailey Horn has been retained after a brief stint as the 27th man during a doubleheader. Hinch praised Horn's performance in Triple-A, indicating the team’s strategy to bolster their pitching depth as they face a tough stretch against teams with potent lineups.
