Colt Keith injury update: INF Jace Jung gets callup from Tigers
Along with right-hander River Ryan, infielder Jace Jung has been called up for the final week of the Detroit Tigers' 2026 season.
Detroit Tigers have recalled infielder Jace Jung and pitcher River Ryan for the final week of their 2026 season. Ryan and Jung were both brought up from Triple-A Toledo on Monday, Sept. 21, to replace Colt Keith and Troy Melton, who were both placed on the injured list. Melton had been dealing with right arm tightness and soreness, while Keith suffered a left thumb sprain.
Ryan, an 11th-round pick in 2021, will make his Tigers debut against the Washington Nationals after joining the organization via trade with the LA Dodgers. Jung, a first-round pick in 2022, has spent most of this season in Triple-A but has shown he can contribute significantly. The Tigers are focusing on giving younger players more experience as they are officially out of playoff contention.
