Rotowire
De Jesus underwent Tommy John surgery this week, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Given the timing of the reconstructive elbow procedure, De Jesus might not be able to return to live games until the beginning of the 2025 season. The 26-year-old right-hander had posted a 4.21 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 45:20 K:BB through 36.1 innings of relief this summer with the Tigers' Double-A affiliate in Erie.

Tigers' Angel De Jesus: Pitches well Sunday
Rotowire
De Jesus pitched 2.1 scoreless innings of relief in Sunday's loss to the Twins. He didn't allow a hit or a walk and struck out two.
De Jesus, who was recalled from Triple-A Toledo earlier in the day, was needed in the third inning when Rony Garcia (biceps) was forced out of the contest due to injury. The former pitched well, retiring all seven batters he faced in order. With Detroit dealing with a ton of pitching injuries, De Jesus figures to stick around, though he'll likely remain in the bullpen and not get a look in the rotation. All 30 of the righty's appearances this season between the minors and majors have come in relief.

Tigers' Angel De Jesus: Joins big-league bullpen
Rotowire
De Jesus was recalled by the Tigers on Friday.
De Jesus made his big-league debut earlier this season, tossing a pair of scoreless innings against the Rockies in late April. His 5.40 ERA in 28.1 innings of relief for Triple-A Toledo doesn't inspire much confidence, so he's likely to be limited to low-leverage innings during his time with the team. Jose Cisnero was placed on the bereavement list in a corresponding move.
