1 year agoDetroit Tigers closer Alex Lange returned Sunday to earn a save after blowing an opportunity on Saturday. In the ninth frame, Lange entered the contest against the Angels with a two-run lead. He started the inning by getting batter Eduardo Escobar to fly out to left field. The 27-year-old would then retire the next two Angels batters to close the contest. This season, the right-handed reliever has recorded 24 saves on 29 attempts.--Andrew Lennox - RotoBaller

9 months agoDetroit Tigers right-handed reliever Alex Lange (lat) is going to need surgery for a right-lat avulsion, which is scheduled for early next week. The Tigers aren't putting a timetable on Lange's recovery, but his season is now likely over. The 28-year-old suffered the injury while pitching for Triple-A Toledo last Friday and will now be out for the foreseeable future. He opened the year as one of the favorites for saves in Detroit's bullpen, but a poor start to the year led to a demotion to the minors in May. Lange produced a 4.34 ERA, a 1.77 WHIP, two saves, 21 strikeouts and 17 walks in 18 2/3 innings out of the bullpen in Detroit earlier this year. It's been a hard fall for Lange after he recorded a season-high 26 saves for the Tigers in 2023. If he wasn't already, he can be dropped in all single-year fantasy leagues. For the time being, Jason Foley is Detroit's closer at the major-league level.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

10 months agoThe Detroit Tigers optioned right-hander Alex Lange to Triple-A Toledo on Thursday and recalled right-hander Mason Englert from Toledo in a corresponding move. The move to demote Lange to the minors comes a day after he gave up four earned runs in one inning of work in the team's loss to the Kansas City Royals on Wednesday. The 28-year-old opened the year as Detroit's closer but will now try to figure some things out in the minors after going 0-3 so far in 2024 with a career-worst 4.34 ERA (3.94 FIP), a 1.77 WHIP, two saves, 17 walks and 21 strikeouts in 18 2/3 innings out of the bullpen. Lange had a career-high 26 saves for the Tigers last year but has fallen on hard times so far this year, mainly for his inability to control the strike zone. He should be back in Detroit eventually, but he's not guaranteed to win the closer role back from Jason Foley.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

10 months agoDetroit Tigers relief pitcher Alex Lange got destroyed on Sunday, allowing four runs in just ⅔ IP in a 9-3 loss to the Houston Astros. Lange allowed five hits and two walks while failing to record a strikeout. The 28-year-old had been pitching well recently and seemed to be making a case to be re-inserted into the closer discussion, but a lot of that goodwill went away today with this disastrous performance. The Tigers will likely continue to use Jason Foley in the ninth inning, although they don't seem to fully trust him of late. Still, a lack of other options makes Foley the go-to guy for now.--Matt Garon - RotoBaller

12 months agoDetroit Tigers reliever Alex Lange walked three batters and struck out one while recording just one out in the team's 7-6 extra-innings win against the Chicago White Sox on Saturday. Lange came into the game in the seventh inning and loaded the bases on walks, striking out Yoan Moncada in the process. Lange avoided having any earned runs charged to him as Will Vest got Eloy Jimenez to ground into an inning-ending double play. After throwing 23 pitches with control issues evident, it may be unlikely that Lange will pitch again on Sunday. The 28-year-old's next appearance will likely be in the Tigers' next series starting on Monday as they travel to Citi Field to face off against the New York Mets. Jason Foley notched the first save opportunity for the Tigers and appears to be the favorite over Lange to be Detoit's primary closer. Fantasy managers should add Foley in all league formats.--Kevin Larson - RotoBaller
