Tigers' Braden Bristo: Cast off 40-man roster
Rotowire
Bristo was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Sunday.
Bristo served as the 27th man for the Tigers' doubleheader against Atlanta on Wednesday but will lose his spot on the 40-man roster after Detroit acquired Blair Calvo from Colorado on Sunday. If Bristo goes unclaimed on waivers, it wouldn't be surprising to see him remain at Triple-A Toledo.

Tigers' Braden Bristo: Returns to minors
Rotowire
The Tigers returned Bristo to Triple-A Toledo following Wednesday's doubleheader against Atlanta.
Bristo was promoted to serve as Detroit's 27th man for Wednesday's doubleheader and allowed two runs across two innings during Game 1. The 28-year-old reliever holds an 8.77 ERA and 1.75 WHIP across 25.2 innings in Triple-A, making it unlikely he returns to the majors until he shows drastic improvement.

Tigers' Braden Bristo: Joins parent club for doubleheader
Rotowire
The Tigers called Bristo up from Triple-A Toledo to serve as their 27th man for Wednesday's doubleheader with Atlanta.
Bristo will give Detroit a multi-inning option out of the bullpen for the twin bill before he heads back to Toledo on Thursday. The right-hander has an unblemished ERA at the big-league level across five innings in two appearances between the Tigers and Rays, but he had been far less impressive at Toledo (8.10 ERA, 1.79 WHIP in 16.2 innings).

Rays' Braden Bristo: Designated for assignment
Rotowire
Bristo was designated for assignment by the Rays on Saturday.
This move frees up a 40-man roster spot for reliever Javy Guerra, who has been acquired via trade from the Brewers. Bristo earned a three-inning save in his MLB debut earlier this month with Tampa Bay, but that remains the 28-year-old right-hander's only career appearance in the bigs.

Rays' Braden Bristo: Optioned to Triple-A
Rotowire
Bristo was optioned to Triple-A Durham by the Rays on Friday, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.
Bristo picked up a three-inning save in his major-league debut Thursday versus the Red Sox, not yielding a hit and fanning four along the way. Unfortunately for him, he wasn't going to be available for a few days after throwing 42 pitches, hence the demotion. Bristo put himself in a good spot to earn another look down the line, though.

Rays' Braden Bristo: Earns save in debut
Rotowire
Bristo struck out four and walked one over three hitless innings Thursday, earning a save in a 9-3 victory over the Red Sox.
While Bristo shouldn't be expected to receive many three-inning save opportunities, it was quite a debut for the 28-year-old right-hander. Despite the impressive performance, Bristo likely won't serve more than an occasional long-relief role in Tampa Bay. He posted a 4.56 ERA in 53.1 innings last season with Triple-A Scranton-Wilkes-Barre before signing a minor-league deal with the Rays in January.
