Tigers' Trei Cruz: Requires elbow surgery
Cruz was transferred from Double-A Erie's 7-day injured list to the full-season injured list after undergoing Tommy John internal brace surgery on his right elbow Tuesday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
The 26-year-old suffered the injury while going through pre-game work in mid-August. As a position player, Cruz's recovery timeline from the procedure will be much shorter than that of a pitcher, but he may still be sidelined for the start of the 2025 campaign.

Tigers' Trei Cruz: Dropped down to Low-A
The Tigers demoted Cruz from High-A West Michigan to Low-A Lakeland on Tuesday, Emily Waldon of The Athletic reports.
Cruz will cede his spot on the West Michigan roster to 2020 fourth-round pick Gage Workman, who is regarded as one of the top middle-infield prospects in the organization. The 23-year-old Cruz was selected 31 picks ahead of Workman in 2020, but his stock has fallen thanks to him hitting .159 with a 32.7 percent strikeout rate in his first taste of professional ball. Cruz also spent about a month on the injured list earlier this season before returning to action June 8.
