Matthew Boyd has been placed on the injured list by the Tigers, MLBTradeRumors.com reports. Boyd has a left elbow strain which seems likely to end his 2021 season. The Tigers called up Ian Krol from Triple-A to take his place on the roster.
This has been a disappointing season for Boyd who has dealt with multiple injuries and only made 15 starts. He still has a very respectable 3.89 ERA and 1.27 WHIP in those starts but the Tigers were likely hoping for a healthy campaign so they could move him for prospects at the trade deadline, but that never happened.
