Detroit Tigers' Jose Valverde almost certain to avoid punishment in regards to YouTube clip.

"We're looking into it," MLB spokesman Pat Courtney said.
Will Major League Baseball, umpires and opposing players watch Valverde more closely in the future? Maybe. But that is likely to be the only lasting effect from the incident.

Tigers Place Octavio Dotel on DL; Recall Luke Putkonen.
from mlbdailydish

retroactive to June 3rd.


It's Putkonen's second stint in Detroit -- and the club's 27th transaction this year. He joined the team in late April when the team optioned right-hander Thad Weber to Toledo.
Putkonen is 0-2 with a 8.59 ERA and a 6:5 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 7 1/3 innings pitched for Detroit. He is expected to be available for tonight's game.

Shoulder woe sends Dotel to DL for Tigers.

Octavio Dotel placed on 15-day disabled list.
from Jason Beck's Tigers blog

Dotel becomes the seventh Tigers currently on the disabled list. Designated hitter Victor Martinez (left knee surgery) and right-hander Al Alburquerque (right elbow surgery) are on the 60-day DL after undergoing offseason surgeries, but hope to return this season. Lefty Daniel Schlereth (left shoulder tendinitis) is also on the 60-day DL.

Catcher Alex Avila (right hamstring strain), outfielder Andy Dirks (right Achilles tendinitis) and right-handed starter Doug Fister (left side strain) are all on the 15-day DL with hopes to return soon. Detroit has used 40 different players already this season.
