Jackson Jobe (elbow) pitched well in Saturday’s minor league rehab start at Double-A Erie, allowing just one run on two hits over four innings of work.
The 23-year-old right-hander struck out four batters on the day while issuing a pair of walks. He’ll meet up with the Tigers and throw his next bullpen session at Comerica Park before heading to Triple-A Toledo to make his next rehab start. It’s unclear if he’s going to work out of the rotation or the bullpen initially once he is ready to return, though how hard the Tigers push him will likely be determined by whether or not they fall out of the playoff race in the American League.
