To make room for Dontrelle Willis’s return to the active roster tonight, the club removed reliever Juan Rincon from the active roster.
Rincon is 1-0 with a 5.23 ERA in 10 1/3 innings this season.
He was designated for assignment, which means the Tigers have 10 days to move him. If he doesn’t go to another big-league club, the Tigers would like to send him to Triple-A Toledo. If he refuses that assignment, he would become a free agent and would forfeit the remainder of his contract.

The Tigers could probably get something of value for Rincon - I expect that he'll be moved, rather then sent down.
