Tigers' Alex Powers: Signs minors deal with Detroit
Rotowire
Powers signed a minor-league contract with the Tigers on Tuesday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
The 29-year-old righty has yet to make his major-league debut. He had a poor 5.40 ERA in 48.1 innings at the Triple-A level in the Diamondbacks' and Padres' systems last season, though his 28.4 percent strikeout rate was at least somewhat encouraging.

Powers was released by the Reds on Monday.
Powers was serving as organizational depth as part of the Reds' 60-man roster, but he apparently didn't make enough of an impact to remain with the organization. The 28-year-old posted a 1.98 ERA and 1.32 WHIP over 27.1 innings at Triple-A in 2019.
