Will Vest Placed On Paternity List
2 years agoThe Detroit Tigers placed reliever Will Vest on the paternity list on Thursday. Vest is currently with his wife. The couple has welcomed a son named Bennett. The 27-year-old has been one of the Tigers' top relievers this season. Across 30 appearances, he's pitched to a 3.41 ERA and a 1.14 WHIP. He's maintained a 26.6% strikeout rate to go along with a 3.4 K/BB ratio. With the Tigers sitting at 38-56, there's a good chance that a few relievers are sold by the team prior to the trade deadline. Vest would need both Gregory Soto and Michael Fulmer to be traded in order for him to have a chance at a ninth inning role.
