Little returns to Detroit’s relief mix a couple weeks after being non-tendered by the club. The 27-year-old righty made a pair of relief appearances for the eventual World Series champion Dodgers before being claimed off waivers by the Pirates in August. He landed with the Tigers on another waiver claim earlier this offseason.

All six hurlers were designated for assignment, and now all six will hit free agency. Foley is a former closer who should see interest on the market, but won’t be ready to go until the second half after undergoing shoulder surgery.

Foley is the most prominent name here as Detroit clears out several spots on the 40-man roster by booting nearly a half-dozen relievers from the mix. The 30-year-old former closer is recovering from shoulder surgery and won’t be an option until the second half of next season.

Little heads to Detroit as organizational relief depth after being jettisoned from Pittsburgh’s 40-man roster earlier this week. the 27-year-old righty made two relief appearances for the Dodgers this past season in his first taste of the majors.

Pittsburgh’s batch of cuts eliminates a potential roster crunch at the outset of the offseason. Bae and Peguero are the prominent inclusions, but they’ve tumbled down the Pirates’ organizational depth chart over the last couple seasons and barely appeared in the big leagues this past year.

Little was designated for assignment after the Dodgers claimed Luken Baker off waivers from the Cardinals. The right-hander will head to Triple-A, but stands a good chance of joining the Pittsburgh bullpen before the end of 2025.

Little has been removed from Los Angeles’ 40-man roster to make room for the club to claim first baseman Luken Baker off waivers from the Cardinals. The 27-year-old righty made a pair of relief appearances earlier this season for the Dodgers in his first taste of the majors.

Little’s stint with the Dodgers wound up lasting roughly 24 hours as he heads back to the minors to make room for Emmet Sheehan to take the ball on Sunday against the Astros.

Little will be up to provide some bullpen help after Noah Davis gave up 10 runs in his relief appearance Friday. He’ll be a multi-inning option, but with no chance of helping fantasy clubs in this stint.

The 27-year-old hurler was with the Dodgers for just one night, where he gave up a pair of runs on four hits over two innings against the Padres. He’ll continue to serve as extra bullpen depth for the Dodgers at the Triple-A level.
