Player Outlook
Keider Montero reached two new levels in 2023, and the young righty posted a 4.66 ERA and 1.37 WHIP while striking out 160 batters over 111.1 innings between Double-A Erie and Triple-A Toledo. The 23-year-old also saw 16 innings of action for High-A West Michigan, with the 127.1 total innings representing a new career high. Like a lot of young pitchers, Montero could work to cut down the walks a bit, but he flashed plenty of potential by recording a K/9 of 10.0 or above at each of the three levels he appeared at in 2023. The Tigers saw enough to add Montero to the 40-man roster in November and protect him from the Rule 5 Draft. He seems to be closing in on his MLB debut in the near future, though he will likely begin 2024 at Triple-A again to get some more work there. If Montero continues to miss bats and can reduce the free passes, a promotion may be in order at some point during the season.

  • Tigers' Keider Montero: Earns first MLB win

    Rotowire
    Montero (1-2) allowed two runs on six hits across 6.1 innings to earn the win Wednesday against the Twins. He walked one and struck out four. The Tigers put up nine runs of support, which was more than enough to help Montero earn his first MLB win. The rookie had allowed nine runs across 8.2 innings in his first two starts in the majors, but he looked much more comfortable in his third appearance. He's expected to stick in the rotation for at least a few turns with Casey Mize (hamstring) on the injured list. Montero's next start is tentatively scheduled for July 11 as Detroit juggles its rotation before the All-Star break.

Montero has allowed nine runs with an 11:4 K:BB over 8.2 innings with the Tigers this season and holds a 5.03 ERA and 54:30 K:BB across 48.1 frames for Toledo.

  • Tigers' Keider Montero: Joins Tigers in Minnesota

    Rotowire
    Montero has joined the Tigers in Minnesota and is expected to enter the rotation in place of the injured Casey Mize (hamstring), Jason Beck of MLB.com reports. It's not known yet which day Montero will start, but he will join the rotation sometime this week while Mize misses some time. The right-hander has made two appearances with the Tigers this season -- one as a starter and one as a bulk reliever -- and has allowed nine runs with an 11:4 K:BB over 8.2 innings.

  • Tigers' Keider Montero: Sent back to Triple-A

    Rotowire
    The Tigers optioned Montero to Triple-A Toledo on Thursday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports. Montero was recalled from the minors to serve as a bulk reliever for Wednesday's game, during which he allowed five earned runs in just 4.1 innings. He'll now head back to Toledo in order to free up a roster spot for Alex Faedo (hip), who returned from the IL on Thursday.

  • Tigers' Keider Montero: Called up, working in bulk relief

    Rotowire
    The Tigers recalled Montero from Tripe-A Toledo on Wednesday. Per Evan Woodbery of MLive.com, Montero is slated to serve as a bulk reliever for the Tigers in Wednesday's game against the Phillies, likely entering the game in the second or third inning once opening pitcher Tyler Holton exits the contest. Montero's lone prior big-league appearance came as a starter back on May 29, when he gave up four earned runs on five hits and one walk while striking out five across 4.1 innings in a loss to the Pirates. Montero owns a 5.03 ERA and 1.70 WHIP over 13 starts with Toledo this season.

  • Tigers' Keider Montero: Likely to start Wednesday

    Rotowire
    Montero is expected to start Wednesday's game against the Phillies, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports. While the Tigers haven't announced anything yet, they are listing Wednesday's starter as TBD and Montero was spotted in the clubhouse at Comerica Park on Tuesday. Mason Englert is expected to be optioned to Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move. Montero, 23, allowed four runs in 4.1 innings in his major-league debut versus the Pirates last month. It would appear Wednesday's appearance will be another spot start for the righty and he'll head back to Toledo after the game.

  • Tigers' Keider Montero: Recalled ahead of MLB debut

    Rotowire
    The Tigers recalled Montero from Triple-A Toledo ahead of his scheduled start in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Pirates. Because they designated Montero as their 27th man for the twin bill, the Tigers waited until after their 8-0 win in the opening game of the day before activating him. The 23-year-old right-hander will make his MLB debut Wednesday before presumably heading back to Toledo immediately after the start. Over his nine outings with the Triple-A club this season spanning 30.2 innings, Montero has accrued a 4.40 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 36:17 K:BB.

  • Tigers' Keider Montero: Optioned to minor-league camp

    Rotowire
    The Tigers optioned Montero to Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports. Montero finished 2023 at Toledo and will head back there to begin 2024. The 23-year-old right-hander could get a look in Detroit's rotation at some point this season, although he is fairly far down in the pecking order right now.
