Troy Melton Given Clean Bill Of Health For Normal Offseason

Detroit Tigers right-hander Troy Melton is expected to have a normal offseason after a follow-up evaluation on his right forearm revealed no issues. Melton's 2026 campaign ended in mid-September due to forearm tightness and fatigue following a late start caused by an elbow strain. Across 20 starts upon his return, he excelled by collecting a 2.76 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, and 94:37 strikeouts-to-walks ratio over 114.1 innings.
