The Tigers activated LHP Derek Holland (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list.

Fantasy Impact

Holland his missed a lot of time due to shoulder inflammation. He'll pitch out of the bullpen until the team needs to recall Matt Manning from Triple-A after the All-Star break.

Detroit left-hander Derek Holland allowed three runs over 2 2/3 innings of work in a 4-1 loss to Cleveland on Friday. Holland struck out three in the loss.

Fantasy Impact

Holland gave up a two-run homer to Franmil Reyes in the first inning but calmed down after that. He wasn't originally scheduled to start on Friday but Julio Teheran was a last-minute scratch. As long as Teheran checks out, expect Holland to head back to his bullpen role.

Derek Holland signed a minor league contract with the Tigers, which includes an invite to big league camp.

Fantasy Impact

Derek Holland (1-2) allowed eight runs on six hits and four walks while striking out eight across five innings in Friday's 9-1 loss to the Brewers. He picked up his second loss of the season.

Fantasy Impact

Holland was hurt by the long ball as he yielded three homers to the Brewers in Friday's loss. He has now allowed 10 home runs in all six appearances this season. Holland owns a 7.62 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 31 strikeouts across 28 1/3 innings in 2020. His next scheduled start is Wednesday against the Cubs. Holland will need to turn things around in order to be in the conversation in deep-league formats.
