The Detroit Tigers have optioned Taiwanese left-handed pitcher Fu-te Ni to AAA affiliate Toledo of the International League. The 26-year-old Ni came to the Tigers as a free agent over the winter after spending last year in the Chinese Professional Baseball League.
Ni pitched well for Detroit in his first three exhibition appearances for Detroit, tossing scoreless innings each time before giving up two runs and three hits in two-thirds of an inning in a recent appearance against the Washington Nationals. He is expected to pitch out of the bullpen for the Mud Hens, with a chance to rejoin the big club later in the season.
