The Detroit Tigers have acquired relief pitcher Paul Sewald from the Cleveland Guardians. Sewald, who is currently sidelined with a strained right shoulder, is eligible to return from the injured list on Sunday, though his return to pitching is not expected until September. The 35-year-old right-hander holds a 1-1 record with a 4.70 ERA in 18 games this season, averaging over a strikeout per inning, and adds veteran experience to the Tigers' bullpen.
