The Tigers will call up left-hander Jose Alvarez to start Thursday against the Red Sox.
Alvarez will fill in for Anibal Sanchez (shoulder) in the starting rotation. The 24-year-old left-hander struck out seven over six innings of one-run ball against the Indians on June 9 and should carry some value in AL-only leagues for now.
Jun 17 - 4:33 PM

Rick Thompson on Twitter
Tigers optioned LHP Jose Alvarez to Triple-A Toledo.
Alvarez allowed one run over six innings and had seven strikeouts in his debut Sunday against the Indians. The Tigers will call up right-hander Evan Reed to replace him on the active roster.
Jun 9 - 4:17 PM
Jose Alvarez tossed six innings of one-run ball in his major league debut Sunday, picking up the win in a 4-1 victory over the Indians.
Alvarez had a no-hitter going until Ryan Raburn took him deep with two outs in the fifth. He then pitched out of a two-out jam in the sixth before the Tigers took the lead for good in the bottom of the frame. Alvarez struck out seven on the day while allowing just three hits and one walk. Anibal Sanchez is expected to be ready for his next start, but the Tigers won't be worried about calling on Alvarez if need after this performance.
Jun 9 - 3:56 PM
Tigers purchased the contract of LHP Jose Alvarez from Triple-A Toledo.
Alvarez will make his major league debut on Sunday in place of the injured Anibal Sanchez (shoulder). The left-hander isn't much of a prospect but has been terrific at Toledo this season, posting a 2.42 ERA and 76/15 K/BB ratio over 74 1/3 frames. Sanchez is expected to be OK for his next start, so Alvarez should be sent back down after his debut no matter how he fares.

Tigers placed C Alex Avila on the 15-day disabled list with a deep contusion on his left forearm.
Avila suffered the injury when he was hit by a pitch on Sunday. Bryan Holaday has been called up in a corresponding roster move while Brayan Pena figures to get most of the playing time behind the plate.

Anibal Sanchez
D.L.
Tigers head athletic trainer Kevin Rand said Monday that an MRI on Anibal Sanchez's right shoulder showed no structural damage.
Encouraging news for the Tigers, though Sanchez was placed on the disabled list Monday. The hope is that he'll be ready to return right around when he's eligible at the end of the month.

Octavio Dotel
D.L.
Octavio Dotel is currently limited to playing catch after feeling more soreness in his right elbow after throwing from a mound.
"I don't know what's going on with Dotel," Tigers manager Jim Leyland said. "I think he's just trying to see if he still has it." Leyland added that some days Dotel feels good enough to play catch, but other days he doesn't. Multiple MRIs on Dotel's elbow have shown no structural damage, but Jason Beck of MLB.com writes that Dotel's season "appears to be in question." It's a fair question given that he's been out since late April and has yet to make notable progress.
