Lorenzen did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing two runs (zero earned) on two hits and one walk over 6.2 scoreless innings against the White Sox. He struck out four. Lorenzen bounced back from a poor last start in which he gave up three home runs to toss 6.2 innings with zero earned runs Saturday. The 31-year-old has had a rollercoaster 2023, giving up five or more earned runs three times while giving up one or fewer earned runs in his other five appearances. Through eight starts (46.1 innings), Lorenzen owns a 3.50 ERA and 1.10 WHIP to pair with a 2.92 K/BB. Though Lorenzen is best utilized as a matchup-based streamer and daily fantasy option due to his volatility, he can provide value to managers who are willing to put up with the occasional blow-up start....

Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Tagged for five runs Monday
Lorenzen allowed five runs on five hits and two walks while striking out five batters over 5.2 innings in a no-decision during Monday's 8-5 win over the Royals in 10 innings. Detroit gave Lorenzen a 3-0 lead in the top of the first inning, but that was quickly erased when he surrendered three runs in the bottom of the frame. Those runs came by way of homers by Vinnie Pasquantino and Salvador Perez. Lorenzen settled down to hold the Royals scoreless between the second and fourth innings, but he served up another long ball -- a two-run shot by Jackie Bradley -- in the fifth. The three homers were the most the right-hander has surrendered in a game this season, and it was the third time in seven appearances that he has given up five or more runs. On the plus side, Lorenzen has been very good across his other four outings, posting a 0.72 ERA and 0.88 WHIP over 25 frames.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Sleeper pitchers for Week 9 (May 22-28)
Michael Lorenzen has been surprisingly effective in three May starts, allowing a combined two runs in a combined 20 innings. We know he's not actually that good, but with matchups against two suspect offenses, the Royals and White Sox, hopefully he can keep pretending.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Third straight quality start
Lorenzen (2-2) earned the win Tuesday, allowing five hits and two walks over six scoreless innings against Pittsburgh. He struck out seven. Lorenzen has been excellent of late -- he's gone 2-1 in his last three starts while allowing just two runs over 20 innings in that span. On the season, the 31-year-old Lorenzen is now 2-2 with a 3.44 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 26:9 K:BB through six starts (34 innings). At the very least, Lorenzen is worth a look as a streaming option at this point in the season. He's lined up for another favorable road matchup against the Royals in his next outing.... See More ...

Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Pitches well in loss
Lorenzen (1-2) took the loss Tuesday, allowing a run on five hits over seven innings against the Guardians. He struck out three. Lorenzen was excellent Tuesday, but he'd ultimately take the loss as the Tigers' offense couldn't get him any support against Shane Bieber. The 31-year-old Lorenzen has pitched seven innings in each of his last two starts, allowing just two runs on nine hits in that span. He now has a 4.18 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 19:7 K:BB through 28 innings this season.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Looks sharp to earn win in nightcap
Lorenzen (1-1) allowed one run on four hits across seven innings to earn the win in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Mets. He walked two and struck out one. Outside of the low strikeout total, Lorenzen was great, and he was able to earn his first win of the year as the Tigers provided eight runs of support. The righty missed the first three weeks of the season with a groin injury and now has a 5.14 ERA across four starts. He's tentatively lined up to take the mound again Monday against Cleveland, where he'll look to build from this positive outing.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Start postponed due to weather
Lorenzen's scheduled start against the Mets on Tuesday was postponed due to inclement weather, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports. Lorenzen will instead likely take the ball against the Mets on Wednesday with Tuesday's postponement being made up in a split doubleheader. The Tigers may need to alter their rotation beyond that point, as Detroit doesn't have another off day until May 11 before a three-game series against the Mariners.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Gives up five runs in loss
Lorenzen (0-1) took the loss Wednesday, allowing five runs on seven hits and two walks over five innings during a 6-2 loss to the Brewers. He struck out five. Lorenzen struggled to find his command early, as he hit Christian Yelich, walked Jesse Winker and fell behind 3-0 to Rowdy Tellez in the first inning. After the right-hander worked his way back into the count, Tellez opened the scoring with an RBI double, and Brian Anderson followed with a two-run single. After appearing to settle down, Lorenzen served up a two-run blast to Victor Caratini in the third but was able to get out of the inning and posted two scoreless frames before getting pulled. It's been mixed results for Lorenzen since making his delayed season debut, as he's allowed 11 runs over two starts (nine innings) but tossed five shutout frames in his other outing. He'll look to build some momentum in his next start, which is tentatively scheduled for Detroit's upcoming three-game set versus the Mets.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Five shutout frames
Lorenzen did not factor into the decision Friday, allowing three hits and one walk over five scoreless innings during a 2-1 loss to the Orioles. He struck out four. Lorenzen missed the first three weeks of the 2023 regular season due to a groin strain, so he was making just his second start of the year. It was a strong bounce-back performance after he served up six runs over four innings against the Giants in his season debut. He'll look to maintain his momentum during his next start, which is tentatively scheduled for Detroit's upcoming three-game road set in Milwaukee.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Bailed out by offense
Lorenzen didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 7-6 extra-innings win over the Giants, surrendering six runs on eight hits and two walks over four innings. He struck out six. The strikeouts were somewhat encouraging, but Lorenzen's first start of the season was mostly poor as he served up two-run home runs to Blake Sabol in the second inning and J.D. Davis in the third, eventually exiting after 79 pitches (52 strikes). Fortunately for the right-hander, he got bailed out by Detroit's batters after he hit the showers. Lorenzen, whose season debut was delayed due to a spring groin strain, should remain in the rotation for at least another couple turns. He'll hope he's shaken off all the rust ahead of his next outing, likely to come next weekend in Baltimore.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Activated for Saturday's start
Lorenzen (groin) was activated Saturday from the 15-day injured list. Lorenzen will jump into the Tigers' starting rotation Saturday against the Giants after missing the first three weeks of the 2023 regular season due to a left groin strain. He struggled in his lone minor-league rehab start last weekend with Triple-A Toledo and is not a recommended fantasy streaming option.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Season debut coming Saturday
Lorenzen (groin) will be reinstated from the 15-day injured list and start Saturday against the Giants, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports. Lorenzen has missed the first few weeks of the season with a left groin strain. He made a rehab start last Saturday with Triple-A Toledo but got hit around quite a bit, surrendering four earned runs over 2.1 frames. It's best to limit expectations as the 31-year-old righty works his way back into the rhythm of the season.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: On track to return this weekend
Lorenzen (groin) is expected to be activated from the 15-day injured list and return to Detroit's rotation at some point during this weekend's series against the Giants, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. Friday's series opener appears to be the tentative target, and Lorenzen's impending activation comes with good timing after Matt Manning landed on the injured list Wednesday due to a fractured right foot. Lorenzen has missed the first three weeks of the 2023 campaign while recovering from a left groin strain. He gave up four earned runs over just 2.1 innings in his lone rehab start last Saturday with Triple-A Toledo, so fantasy expectations should be tempered if he pitches this weekend.... See More ...

Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Good chance to return soon
Tigers manager A.J. Hinch told reporters before Sunday's game against the Red Sox that the plan is for Lorenzen (groin) to make his next start in the big leagues, but he'll be evaluated by the medical staff before making the decision, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports. Lorenzen made a rehab start Saturday for Triple-A Toledo and gave up four runs in 2.1 innings of work against Triple-A Iowa. The right-hander is recovering from a left groin strain and missed well over two weeks with the injury, so it's possible Lorenzen won't be fully stretched out for an appearance or two with the Tigers, assuming that he gets clearance to join the club....

Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Set for rehab start Saturday
Lorenzen (groin) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo on Saturday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. Lorenzen was cleared for rehab games after he got through a live batting practice session and pitchers' fielding practice Monday with no issues. He's missed a few weeks with a left groin strain, so Lorenzen figures to require a couple rehab starts before joining the Tigers' rotation.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Nearing rehab assignment
Lorenzen (groin) threw live batting practice and went through PFP drills Monday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. Assuming he comes out of the workout with no concerns, Lorenzen seems poised to begin a rehab assignment soon. He hasn't pitched in a game since mid-March, so the right-hander would figure to need a couple rehab outings before joining the Tigers' rotation. Joey Wentz is currently filling his rotation spot....

Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Officially shifts to IL
Lorenzen (groin) was placed on the 15-day injured list Thursday, retroactive to March 27. Manager A.J. Hinch confirmed last week that Lorenzen would begin the season on the shelf due to the groin strain he was diagnosed with March 20, and that transaction is now official. The right-hander recently threw a bullpen session and could progress to facing live batters within the next week or two.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Resumes mound work
Lorenzen (groin) threw a bullpen session earlier this week and will throw another one Thursday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports. Lorenzen is expected to be on the injured list to begin the season with a left groin strain, but he seems to be making nice progress. The right-hander will probably need a rehab start before returning but might only wind up missing the minimum 15 days.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Will begin season on IL
Tigers manager A.J. Hinch confirmed Friday that Lorenzen (groin) will not be ready for the beginning of the season, Chris McCosky of the Detroit News reports. Lorenzen was scratched from a Grapefruit League start this past Monday due to a mild left groin strain and is going to need a short IL stint before he hops into a starting role with Detroit. Joey Wentz will fill his spot in the meantime.... See More ... See Less -
Tigers' Michael Lorenzen: Opening Day status in doubt
Lorenzen (groin) will progress his throwing and begin a running progression over the weekend, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports. Lorenzen was scratched from his scheduled start Monday against Toronto due to a mild left groin strain. No official update has come out regarding his Opening Day status, but considering the slow rate at which he is progressing, it's beginning to seem more and more unlikely that he'll be able to make his first start on time. Joey Wentz appears to be the next man up for Detroit in the rotation.... See More ... See Less
