Tigers' Keider Montero: Notches quality start in win
Montero (4-1) earned the win in Monday's game against the Rays, allowing one run on four hits and one walk across six innings with four strikeouts.
The Detroit right-hander required only 68 pitches, 47 of which were strikes, to secure his second quality start of the season. The only blemish on Montero's performance was a Jonathan Aranda RBI single in the third, as the Tampa Bay lineup was unable to mount any momentum because they managed only one extra-base hit -- a Chandler Simpson double in the fifth. Despite owning a respectable 3.77 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 43:21 K:BB across 62 big-league frames, Montero appears to have made this start to provide the Tigers rotation additional rest around the All-Star break. He is likely to be shuttled back to Triple-A Toledo, where he's pitched to a 5.87 ERA in 23 innings this season.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Drawing start Monday
Montero will be called up from Triple-A Toledo to start Monday's game against the Rays, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Montero will be in line for a traditional start Monday, after he had previously made six starts and five bulk relief appearances for the Tigers this season while collecting a 4.02 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 39:20 K:BB over 56 frames.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Sent to Triple-A
The Tigers optioned Montero to Triple-A Toledo on Friday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Montero threw five innings in bulk relief during the Tigers' 8-4 loss in the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against the Pirates. The right-hander has amassed a 4.02 ERA and 39:20 K:BB across 56 innings this season. Dylan Smith was up as the 27th man, but it's Montero who goes to Triple-A. Smith's arm is fresher after throwing just 23 pitches across two innings Thursday.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Goes five innings in bulk role
Montero did not factor into the decision in the second game of Thursday's doubleheader with the Pirates, allowing one run on three hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out five.
It was a solid outing for Montero, who came out of the bullpen in the second inning, with the lone blemish coming on an Andrew McCutchen solo home run in the third. The 24-year-old Montero has allowed just three runs over 10 innings in his last two appearances. His ERA is down to 4.02 with a 1.39 WHIP and 39:20 K:BB across 56 innings this season.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Earns win in bulk relief
Montero (3-1) earned the win against the Reds on Friday, allowing two runs on seven hits and one walk with four strikeouts over five innings.
Montero entered with two outs in the first inning and tossed five solid frames despite surrendering two solo home runs. The 24-year-old has now allowed three earned runs or fewer in seven of his 10 outings this season, split between starts and bulk-relief appearances. He owns a 4.24 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 34:18 K:BB across 51 innings and lines up to face the Pirates next week, though his role for that outing remains uncertain.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Slated for bulk relief Friday
Montero is slated to handle a bulk relief role Friday versus the Reds, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Brant Hurter will open for the Tigers before handing things off to Montero. Montero is not unfamiliar with bulk relief, having pitched in that role in three of his last five outings. He has not pitched well following an opener this season, however, posting a 7.36 ERA.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Hit hard as primary pitcher
Montero didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 6-1 loss to the Cubs, coughing up four runs on five hits -- including three home runs -- and a walk over 5.2 innings of relief. He struck out four.
The right-hander entered the game after Tyler Holton worked 1.1 innings as the opener, and while Montero had some initial success, homers by Michael Busch in the fifth inning and Pete Crow-Armstrong and Matt Shaw in the seventh took a toll. Reese Olson (finger) and Jackson Jobe (elbow) aren't expected back until at least late June, so Montero should get another couple turns through the rotation, either as a traditional starter or bulk reliever. He'll take a 4.30 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 30:17 K:BB through 46 innings into his next outing, which is scheduled to come at home next weekend against the Reds.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Working in bulk relief Saturday
Montero is expected to pitch as a bulk reliever Saturday against the Cubs, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
The Tigers will send Tyler Holton to the mound to begin Saturday's contest before turning to Montero to provide length out of the bullpen. Montero has been on a nice run recently, pitching 9.2 shutout frames across his last two outings.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Pitches well in no-decision
Montero did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 1-0 win over the Royals, allowing seven hits and one walk while striking out two over 4.2 scoreless innings.
Montero threw 53 of 72 pitches for strikes and departed one out short of qualifying for the win. The 24-year-old has now tossed back-to-back scoreless outings but has failed to complete five innings in three of his six starts this season. He'll carry a 4.02 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 26:16 K:BB across 40.1 innings into what will likely be a home matchup against the Cubs next weekend.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Sharp in victory
Montero (2-1) worked five shutout innings in earning the victory during Monday's 3-1 win against the Giants. He surrendered just one hit and two walks while striking out three batters.
Montero worked his first scoreless outing of the season Monday, but turned things over to the bullpen after just 79 pitches, suggesting he still has some work to do to earn the full trust of the coaching staff. Regardless, it was a good bounce back outing for the 24-year-old, who had surrendered eight runs over his last two starts spanning nine total innings. The right-hander is now at a 4.54 ERA for the season.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Allows five runs in bulk relief
Montero surrendered five runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out three batters over 5.2 innings in a no-decision against St. Louis on Monday.
Montero worked in a bulk-relief role for the second straight game, though he took on a starter's workload with 5.2 frames and 98 pitches. The right-hander entered with one out in the first inning after Sean Guenther had allowed allowed a run on three hits, and though Montero got out of that frame without yielding further damage, he gave up four runs across the fourth and fifth innings and was charged with another after he departed in the seventh. It remains to be seen if Montero will continue entering behind an opener, but he should keep getting the ball on a starter's schedule even after Casey Mize (hamstring) returns from the injured list, as Reese Olson (finger) landed on the IL on Monday.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Set for bulk role Monday
Montero is expected to work in bulk relief behind opening pitcher Sean Guenther in Monday's game in St. Louis, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
The Cardinals typically use two left-handed batters -- Lars Nootbaar and Brendan Donovan -- among their top three spots in the lineup, so the Tigers will have the left-handed Guenther open the game with the hope of stymieing the St. Louis offense early on. Guenther is unlikely to work more than a couple of innings before giving way to Montero, who will be making his second straight appearance in a bulk-relief role after covering 3.1 frames and giving up three earned runs out of the bullpen last Tuesday against the Red Sox. Montero should stick around as the de facto fifth member of the Detroit rotation until Casey Mize (hamstring) is cleared to return from the 15-day injured list.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Yields three runs in relief
Montero allowed three runs on five hits and a walk over 3.1 innings during Tuesday's extra-innings win over Boston. He struck out three and did not factor in the decision.
Montero was recalled from Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday and worked in a bulk-relief role after Tyler Holton threw 1.2 innings as the opener. Alex Bregman knocked a solo home run in the fourth inning and Boston tallied a pair of runs in the fifth. Montero owns a 4.68 ERA with an 18:11 K:BB through 25 MLB innings. If he sees another turn in the rotation or as a bulk reliever, he'd be lined up to make his next appearance in St. Louis.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Officially recalled

Tigers' Keider Montero: Working in bulk relief Tuesday
Montero will be recalled from Triple-A Toledo and is set to be deployed as a bulk reliever in Tuesday's game against the Red Sox, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Montero will fill the opening in the rotation created by Casey Mize's (hamstring) recent move to the injured list, but the 24-year-old righty won't be tasked with handling a traditional starting role. Instead, the Tigers will use Tyler Holton as their opening pitcher, but he's expected to cover no more than one or two innings before giving way to Montero. Montero is fresh off an impressive eight-inning outing with the Tigers against the Rockies at Coors Field last Thursday, when he surrendered one run on five hits while striking out two and walking three.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Likely to start Tuesday's game
Montero has a locker in the Detroit clubhouse and is likely to be recalled from Triple-A Toledo to start Tuesday's game against the Red Sox, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Montero will presumably be called upon to fill in for the injured Casey Mize (hamstring) in the rotation. The 24-year-old right-hander tossed eight frames of one-run ball at Coors Field in a spot start last week before being optioned to Triple-A, but he is eligible to be recalled at any time because he served as the 27th man for a doubleheader that day.

Tigers' Keider Montero: Sent back down after spot start
The Tigers optioned Montero to Triple-A Toledo on Friday.
Montero was up as the 27th man for Thursday's doubleheader against the Rockies and dazzled in a spot start, spinning eight frames of one-run ball at Coors Field. He'll rejoin the rotation at Toledo but will be the top option the next time the Tigers need a spot starter.
