Tigers claim Grant Holman off waivers to bolster bullpen depth

Detroit claimed right-hander Grant Holman off waivers from the Dodgers and optioned him to the Florida Coast League, while Trey Sweeney was moved to the 60-day injured list to clear 40-man space. Holman, who debuted in 2024 and owns a 4.66 ERA in 38 2/3 MLB innings across 40 games, has two minor-league option years remaining and battled rotator cuff tendinitis in 2025, giving Detroit another flexible bullpen arm as it pursues its pitching-chaos approach.
