DETROIT -- The Detroit Tigers placed right-handed starting pitcher Artie Lewicki on the 10-day disabled list Wednesday with right elbow inflammation.

The Tigers recalled right-handed reliever Zac Reininger from Triple-A Toledo to take his spot on the roster.

Lewicki's next scheduled start is Saturday at Minnesota.

The Tigers could bring up another starter or simply make it a "bullpen day" and use a parade of relievers against the Twins.

The only starting pitcher in Triple-A Toledo on the 40-man roster is left-hander Ryan Carpenter, who is scheduled to pitch for the Mud Hens Wednesday night.
