Tigers recall Ty Madden from Triple-A to bolster bullpen
Summary

The Detroit Tigers recalled reliever Ty Madden from Triple-A Toledo ahead of their game against the Chicago Cubs on July 21. This move comes after a demanding stretch for the bullpen, which required five pitchers in a recent 10-inning victory and four pitchers in a loss against the Los Angeles Angels. Madden, with a 3.15 ERA in seven appearances earlier this season, aims to provide additional support to a fatigued relief staff. The Tigers are expected to make a corresponding roster move before the game.
