Thu Jun 8 2023 | 16:51 | Tyler Holton To Open, Reese Olson Serving As Bulk Reliever |
Detroit Tigers left-hander Tyler Holton is serving as the team's opener on Thursday against the Philadelphia Phillies and he'll likely only pitch one inning, although manager A.J. Hinch has left the door open for a second frame. Rookie right-hander Reese Olson will enter after Holton as the bulk reliever. "With Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper hitting in the first inning, it's a pretty tall task for a right-handed pitcher," Hinch said. In his major-league debut last Friday against the Chicago White Sox, Olson allowed only two runs on two hits while walking one and striking out six in five innings of work, but he'll have a much tougher matchup in his second MLB appearance on the road in a hostile environment. The team's No. 11 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, will be a risky DFS streamer in a bulk-relief role. |

CF Tyler Holt, despite not starting Sunday, will get the bulk of the playing time in center field with Billy Hamilton on the 7-day concussion disabled list. Manager Bryan Price likes Holt's versatility, his glove in center, and ability to rev up his teammates. "He keeps the guys energized," Price says. "He's always jabbing to players. He doesn't discriminate. It could be a salty veteran or a rookie. Doesn't matter. He's poking the angry pig whenever he gets the chance." Holt is batting .385 in his last 11 appearances. |

The Reds opened up a spot for Holt by moving Kris Negron to the 60-day DL. Cincinnati has been cycling a number of players at the left field and center field spots the last few weeks, so it's possible Holt gets a chance to audition for a starting role over the final handful of games. |

Holt has posted solid statlines at the Triple-A level in each of the past two seasons, but that hasn't translated to much success at the major league level. As a result, the Indians have now decided to DFA the 26-year-old outfielder. If unclaimed, he'll likely remain with the Triple-A club. |

Holt will head to Columbus to open up a roster spot for Nick Swisher, who was activated from the disabled list. Holt posted an .832 OPS through 19 games with Columbus earlier this season, so he will likely garner consideration next time the Indians need to bring up an outfielder from the minors. |

Holt will take the roster spot of pitcher T.J. House, who was placed on the 15-day disabled list due to shoulder inflammation.

He doesn't figure to get regular at-bats with the Indians, and he may not stay in the majors for long. |

The Indians just sent Holt back to Columbus on Sunday but they are allowed to bring him back as an injury-replacement for Ryan Raburn (wrist). Holt has hit a robust .308/.416/.401 in 59 games with Akron this season and is 5-for-13 with the big club, so he could see occasional starts in the outfield or at DH until Raburn's healthy. |

Holt's departure clears room on the roster for pitcher Danny Salazar, who will start Sunday's series finale against the Orioles. |
