AI Summary
The Tigers optioned right-handed pitcher Ricky Vanasco to Triple-A Toledo after he posted a 14.54 ERA in four appearances.
Surely that's not Ricky Nolasco, you'd think. And you'd be right. He doesn't spell his name like Nolasco at all. Vanasco had a 14.54 ERA in 4 1/3 innings for the Tigers over four appearances. The 27-year-old figures to be back at some point with another chance as a fresh arm later this year due to his great work with the Mud Hens.
