James Wagner of the Toledo Blade reports that the Tigers plan to purchase the contract of Jeff Ferrell from Triple-A Toledo on Friday.
It’s unclear at the moment what the corresponding move for the right-hander will be. The 24-year-old has made just one appearance at Triple-A Toledo, but was dominant in 18 games at Double-A Erie, posting a 1.61 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 36/4 K/BB ratio in 28 innings.
