Tigers' Gerson Moreno: Healthy again
Moreno (elbow) is listed among the Tigers' available relief options for Thursday's game against the Yankees and could make his third Grapefruit League appearance, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
While recovering from right elbow surgery, Moreno was sidelined for most of the 2019 season before making it back in action in August for seven rehab appearances with the Tigers' rookie-level Gulf Coast League affiliate. He reported to camp without any apparent restrictions, as he's already tossed a scoreless inning in both of his appearances. Expect Detroit to assign Moreno to Triple-A Toledo or Double-A Erie within the next few weeks.

Gerson Moreno: Let go Wednesday
Moreno (elbow) was unconditionally release from the Tigers on Wednesday.
Moreno will look to catch on elsewhere after appearing in 14 games this season for Double-A Erie and posting a 5.29 ERA and 1.82 WHIP across 17 innings. More so than his poor numbers, the fact that Moreno is set to undergo season-ending Tommy John surgery in June prompted his release. His dismissal clears a spot on the Tigers' 40-man roster.

Tigers' Gerson Moreno: Activated from minor-league DL
Moreno (elbow) was activated from the minor-league disabled list Monday, Emily Waldon of The Athletic Detroit reports.
Moreno is ready to make his 2018 debut after missing the first two weeks of the season with elbow inflammation. The 22-year-old, who has been touted as a potential future closer thanks to his impressive ability to miss bats, will report to Double-A Erie. Moreno posted a lackluster 6.43 ERA across 28 innings with the SeaWolves following a promotion last season, so he'll look to improve in his second stint with the Double-A squad.

Tigers' Gerson Moreno: Optioned to Double-A
Moreno was sent to Double-A Erie on Friday.
Moreno posted a 2.01 ERA in 22.1 innings at High-A Lakeland last season, but struggled to a 6.43 ERA upon promotion to Erie. His strikeout rates were impressive at both levels (31.9 percent at Lakeland and 28.4 percent at Erie) but his walk rate jumped up from 8.5 percent at Lakeland to 13.4 percent at Erie. He'll return to Erie to try to conquer Double-A this season and is probably at least a year away from pushing for a spot in the big-league bullpen.
