Cut loose by Detroit
Rosenthal (elbow) was released by the Tigers on Sunday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
ANALYSIS
The veteran right-hander joined the Tigers on a minor-league deal in March but appeared in just three minor-league games before requiring UCL reconstruction revision surgery. Rosenthal last pitched in the majors during shortened 2020 campaign when he had a 1.90 ERA and 11 saves between the Royals and Padres, and he likely won't be back on the mound until at least the second half of 2024.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might close for Giants
Giants manager Gabe Kapler says Rosenthal is "just health away from being one of the more effective closers in the game," reports Alex Pavlovic of NBCSports.com.
ANALYSIS
San Francisco signed Rosenthal on Thursday to a one-year, $4.5 million contract, despite the 32-year-old still needing to continue rehab on a hamstring injury and having not played in the majors since 2020. The incentive-laden deal comes with a series of bonuses based on appearances. The veteran could begin a rehab assignment next week, and mid-August seems like the most optimistic timeline for his San Francisco debut. Kapler's statement implied that he expects Rosenthal to jump right into a late-game role with the possibility of closing out some games.

Rosenthal appeared to revive his career during the abbreviated 2020 campaign, when he logged a 1.90 ERA and 0.85 WHIP while saving 11 games across 23 appearances with the Royals and Padres. He inked a one-year, $11 million deal with the Athletics following that season, but he never pitched for the club after undergoing thoracic outlet syndrome surgery in April 2021 and then surgery to repair a torn labrum in his hip that July. Rosenthal appeared poised to make a late-season return in 2022 after signing with the Giants -- and later being traded to the Brewers, but a hamstring injury and then a lat injury prevented him from resurfacing in the majors. He may need to prove he's healthy in the minors before getting another shot at the big leagues.
