The Tigers acquired Sommers from the Rays on Wednesday in exchange for right-hander Mason Englert.
A 24-year-old lefty reliever who has yet to reach the Double-A level, Sommers will bolster the Tigers' organizational pitching depth but won't warrant much attention in dynasty leagues. He struck out 65 batters and turned in a 4.00 ERA and 1.37 WHIP over 54 innings with High-A Bowling Green in 2024.
