Left-handed reliever Chasen Shreve has been designated for assignment.
The Detroit Tigers activated right-handed reliever Will Vest — under team control through the 2027 season — from the 15-day injured list before Friday's series opener against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park.
Shreve was designated for assignment to create room for Vest on the 26-man roster, leaving the 40-man roster at 39 players. The 33-year-old posted a 4.79 ERA with 12 walks and 42 strikeouts over 41u2153 innings in 47 relief appearances.

The 6-foot-4 southpaw cleared waivers — meaning none of the 29 other teams wanted him — and will likely become a free agent.
