Jun 29 2025Faedo (shoulder) started a rehab assignment in the Florida Complex League on Friday, MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo attempted to return in early May but experienced shoulder soreness. He's now ramping up again, throwing two scoreless innings with two strikeouts Friday.
May 7 2025Faedo (shoulder) has been shut down from throwing due to neck and shoulder tightness, MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo was scheduled to throw live batting practice Tuesday to begin a spring-training-type buildup. It's unclear when he'll be able to begin throwing again.
May 1 2025Faedo (shoulder) is scheduled to throw live batting practice May 6, MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo has been sidelined since March 21 with the shoulder injury and is restarting his ramp-up process. He'll be out until at least late May, though he'll serve as a multi-inning reliever upon his return and may not need a full 30-day rehab assignment as a result.
Apr 18 2025The Rays transferred Faedo (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Friday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo has been battling through right shoulder discomfort since spring training, and his move to the 60-day IL means he likely won't return until late May or early June. The move makes room on the Rays' 40-man roster for Chandler Simpson, who was called up from Triple-A Durham on Friday.
Mar 21 2025Faedo will begin the season on the 15-day injured list due to a right shoulder injury, Adam Berry of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Rays manager Kevin Cash said that an MRI on Faedo's shoulder didn't reveal anything "too alarming," but the right-hander will be shut down for a bit. Faedo had been in line for an Opening Day bullpen spot but could now be sidelined into May.
Feb 19 2025Faedo (shoulder) tossed a live batting practice session Wednesday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: As a member of the Tigers last season, Faedo didn't pitch after Aug. 20 due to a strained right shoulder, but his ability to throw a live BP session in the early stages of spring training confirms that he's healthy. The 29-year-old right-hander will be competing for a spot in the Tampa Bay bullpen after turning in a 3.61 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 55:28 K:BB in 57.1 innings over his 37 appearances for the Tigers in 2024. Faedo doesn't have any minor-league options remaining, so the Rays would have to expose him to waivers if he isn't kept on the Opening Day roster or placed on the injured list to begin the season.
Feb 3 2025The Rays acquired Faedo from the Tigers on Monday in exchange for Enderson Delgado and cash considerations, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo had been removed from the Tigers' 40-man roster and will now join a new organization. The right-hander is out of minor-league options, so the Rays will need to carry him on their Opening Day roster or put him through the waivers process. Faedo has a career 5.00 ERA over 30 starts and 3.44 ERA over 34 relief appearances at the big-league level.
Jan 29 2025The Tigers designated Faedo for assignment Wednesday, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The move clears a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of Tommy Kahnle. Faedo made a full-time move to the bullpen in 2024, posting a 3.61 ERA and 55:28 K:BB over 57.1 innings. Not having minor-league options left could limit his appeal on waivers, but Faedo would be a depth upgrade for some teams.
Aug 30 2024The Tigers transferred Faedo (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Friday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo was placed on the 15-day injured list Aug. 25 with a strained right shoulder, and the injury is severe enough to keep him sidelined for the remainder of the regular season. He's been administered a PRP injection but is expected to have a normal offseason. In 57.1 innings with the Tigers this year, Faedo logged a 3.61 ERA and a 1.34 WHIP.
Aug 25 2024The Tigers reinstated Faedo (personal) from the paternity list Sunday and placed him on the 15-day injured list with a right shoulder strain. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo is back with the Tigers after he spent the maximum three games away from the team to welcome a new addition to his family, but the right-hander had been apparently dealing with the injury prior to his recent leave of absence. His placement on the IL is retroactive to Thursday, so he'll be eligible for reinstatement as soon as Sept. 6. While operating out of the bullpen and serving as an occasional opener pitcher for the Tigers this season, Faedo has accrued a 3.61 ERA and 1.34 WHIP across 57.1 innings.
Aug 22 2024The Tigers placed Faedo on the paternity list Thursday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo will miss at least one and as many as three games as he welcomes a new member to the family. He'll cede his spot on the active roster to left-hander Sean Guenther, who was recalled from Triple-A Toledo.
Aug 20 2024Faedo will serve as the Tigers' opening pitcher during Tuesday's game against the Cubs, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo is expected to handle one or two innings before turning the game over to bulk reliever Bryan Sammons. Though Faedo has allowed just one run in 3.2 innings during August, he's walked eight batters in that span. He has a 3.72 ERA over 55.2 innings on the season.
Aug 14 2024Faedo will work as the Tigers' opening pitcher Thursday against the Mariners, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo has proven to be effective while serving as an opener, throwing 2.2 scoreless innings across his last two opening assignments. Once he exits the game, Kenta Maeda is expected to take over as the Tigers' bulk reliever.
Aug 10 2024Faedo will serve as the Tigers' opener during Saturday's game against the Giants, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Saturday will mark Faedo's fourth start of the season and his second of August. He was able to last 1.2 frames during his most recent opening assignment and will likely pitch a similar amount of innings against the Giants before handing the ball to Brant Hurter, who is expected to pitch in bulk relief.
Aug 4 2024Faedo will serve as the Tigers' opening pitcher for Sunday's game against the Royals. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo will be making his third start of the season, but he's pitched just two and one innings in those outings and will likely be in store for a similar workload Sunday. Once Faedo exits the contest, left-hander Brant Hurter is expected to take over and serve as Detroit's bulk reliever in what will be his MLB debut.
Jul 30 2024Faedo (5-3) allowed two runs on two hits across 1.2 innings of relief to take the loss Tuesday against the Guardians. He struck out one. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo followed opener Tyler Holton and didn't have much luck as he continued his recent struggles. After notching wins in five straight decisions between mid-April and July 20, Faedo has now taken the loss in consecutive appearances out of the bullpen. Over his last eight outings, the righty has allowed eight runs across 11.1 innings. Faedo has still been mostly solid this season with a 3.81 ERA and should be able to get back on track soon.
Jul 28 2024Faedo (5-2) allowed a run on two hits across an inning of work to take the loss Sunday against the Twins. He struck out three. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo served as Detroit's opener Sunday and was impressive missing bats, though he still sustained his first loss since April 4. The righty had gone 5-0 after that until Sunday's defeat. Despite the stumble, Faedo has been solid in his relief role for the Tigers all season, posting a 3.58 ERA and striking out 48 batters across 50.1 innings. He should continue to occupy a key spot in the bullpen moving forward.
Jul 27 2024Faedo will start Sunday's game against the Twins, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo will make his second start of the season Sunday, though he'll likely be limited to one or two innings before handing the ball off. It's unclear if the Tigers are committing to a bullpen game or will utilize a bulk reliever, but Kenta Maeda would be the likeliest candidate for multiple innings should Detroit opt for a bulk reliever.
Jul 21 2024Faedo (5-1) tossed two scoreless innings of relief to earn the win in Saturday's 7-3 victory over the Blue Jays. He allowed one hit and struck out three. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Detroit starter Reese Olson was forced to exit after two innings due to right shoulder soreness, which brought Faedo into the contest. The righty pitched well and earned his fifth win out of the bullpen this season, which ties him with Shelby Miller for the team lead among relievers. The long relief role isn't the most fantasy friendly, though Faedo has pitched well this year, compiling a 3.35 ERA and 41 strikeouts across 45.2 innings overall.
Jul 14 2024Faedo (4-1) walked a batter and retired one via strikeout to earn the win in Sunday's 4-3 victory over the Dodgers. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo needed 12 pitches to close out the top of the ninth inning, then scooped up the win when the Tigers scored twice in the bottom of the frame. The righty finished a solid first half of the season in which he posted a 3.50 ERA and 38 strikeouts across 43.2 innings of relief. Faedo will remain a bullpen option for the Tigers after the All-Star break, and he can give the team multiple innings when needed.
Jul 6 2024Faedo allowed one hit while striking out two batters in two scoreless innings as the opener in Detroit's win over Cincinnati on Saturday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo began the Tigers' bullpen game and got the job done with two scoreless innings. It was the first time the right-hander has opened a contest this season. This is Faedo's first campaign as a full-time reliever in the majors, and he's posted a 3.18 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 35:15 K:BB over 39.2 frames.
Jun 27 2024The Tigers reinstated Faedo (hip) from the 15-day injured list Thursday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo made three rehab appearances at Triple-A Toledo, during which he gave up one run over three innings while striking out four batters and walking four. He owns a 3.38 ERA and 1.18 WHIP through 34.2 frames in the majors, and he'll slide back into a middle relief role now that he's been cleared to rejoin the Tigers' bullpen. Keider Montero was optioned to Toledo in a corresponding move.
Jun 25 2024Faedo (hip) is scheduled to pitch for Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: After tossing a scoreless inning in his first minor-league appearance, Faedo surrendered four hits, two walks and a run across 1.1 innings Saturday. He's been on the IL since June 5 but is expected to rejoin the major-league roster soon. In fact, Tuesday's outing could be his last at Toledo.
Jun 21 2024Faedo (hip) is scheduled to pitch at Triple-A Toledo on Saturday, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo threw a scoreless inning Wednesday in his first minor-league outing and is in line to pitch again Saturday in what could be his final appearance at Toledo. Faedo owns a 3.38 ERA, six holds and a 3-1 record across 34.2 innings with the Tigers.
Jun 18 2024Faedo (hip) is scheduled to join Triple-A Toledo this week to begin a rehab assignment, MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo has been on the injured list for just under two weeks with right hip inflammation, so he'll likely need just one or two rehab appearances before he's cleared to rejoin the Detroit bullpen. After being deployed mostly in middle relief or long relief earlier in the season, Faedo had moved his way into higher-leverage spots prior to landing on the IL. In his last 11 appearances before being deactivated, Faedo notched one win and six holds.
Jun 14 2024Faedo (hip) is scheduled to throw another bullpen session Tuesday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo said he felt "really good" Thursday after completing his first bullpen session since being placed on the injured list June 5. With another bullpen coming Sunday, Faedo seems likely to begin a rehab stint in the near future and could be back with the Tigers by the end of June.
Jun 12 2024Faedo (hip) will throw a bullpen session Thursday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo looks set to throw off a mound for the first time since he landed on the 15-day injured list last week with inflammation in his surgically-repaired right hip. He looks to be closing in on a rehab assignment and shouldn't need too many appearances before being activated since he hasn't missed extensive time.
Jun 11 2024Faedo (hip) played catch Tuesday and will ramp up his throwing volume throughout the week, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo was placed on the 15-day IL Wednesday with right hip inflammation and has resumed a throwing program. While it's unclear if he'll require a minor-league rehab stint, Faedo seems to be on track to return in late June.
Jun 5 2024The Tigers placed Faedo on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with right hip inflammation. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo has been effective in his first season as a full-time reliever, posting a 3.38 ERA and 1.18 WHIP through 34.2 innings. However, he will now have to sit out at least the next 15 days due to complications with his hip. His spot in the bullpen will be given to Mason Englert, who was recalled from Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move.
May 23 2024Faedo allowed three runs on three hits and a walk across 1.2 innings of relief in Thursday's 9-1 loss to the Blue Jays. He struck out one. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: After starting the season with a 2.25 ERA across his first 14 appearances, Faedo has allowed runs in his last three outings, and he has a 9.00 ERA during that stretch. The righty was a middling starter the last two years, and while he's looked a little better out of the bullpen, he may be regressing closer to his career 4.67 ERA. Faedo doesn't have a ton of fantasy value in his current middle-relief role, particularly given his recent struggles.
May 13 2024Faedo (3-1) allowed two runs on three hits across 2.1 innings of relief but managed to earn the win in Monday's game against the Marlins. He struck out four. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Faedo wasn't at his sharpest Monday, but the righty still managed to earn another win out of the bullpen. He's been racking those up at an impressive but likely unsustainable pace, as he came into the season with only three total wins at the MLB level the last two years despite making 24 starts. Faedo has been solid so far, though his long-relief role makes his fantasy value somewhat unpredictable moving forward.
Apr 28 2024Faedo (2-1) tossed two scoreless innings of relief to earn the win Saturday against the Royals. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: After starter Casey Mize allowed three runs (two earned) over five innings, Faedo worked the sixth and seventh, and he continued to pitch well. The righty has a strong 2.55 ERA across 17.2 innings this season, and he's emerged as a capable long reliever for the Tigers. The role limits Faedo's upside, though he may be able to earn a few more wins here and there.
