Tigers' Spencer Torkelson: Drives in runs Thursday
Torkelson went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double and two RBI in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Rockies.
Torkelson dealt with an illness recently, but he appears to be recovered and ready to keep contributing for the Tigers. Since returning to the majors on Aug. 17, the 25-year-old is batting .253 with 13 RBI in 24 games. Torkelson is still bit of a streaky performer, though he's a legitimate power threat when he's locked in. Expect him to continue receiving regular playing time during the final few weeks of the year.

Tigers' Spencer Torkelson: Back in action Wednesday
Torkelson (illness) will start at first base and bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Rockies.
One of the victims of a bug that has been making its way around the Detroit clubhouse, Torkelson sat out Tuesday's 11-0 win after feeling under the weather following the Tigers' recent road trip. The day off looks to be all Torkelson needed to move past the ailment, as he'll draw back into the starting nine Wednesday. Since getting called up from Triple-A Toledo on Aug. 17, Torkelson has produced a .757 OPS with four home runs, 10 RBI and 14 runs in 22 games.

Torkelson went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run Sunday against the Red Sox.

Tigers' Spencer Torkelson: Hits key home run
Torkelson went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Angels.

In 11 games since getting recalled from Triple-A Toledo, the 25-year-old is batting .333 with three home runs and eight RBI. Torkelson seems to be settling in after a sluggish start to his third MLB campaign, which ultimately got him sent down in early June.

Torkelson went 3-for-5 with a three-run home run in Monday's 6-3 win over the White Sox.
Torkelson has been in a nice groove since returning to the majors on Aug. 17. Across nine games, the 25-year-old is batting .333 with two home runs and six RBI, including the big effort on his birthday Monday. Torkelson mashed 31 home runs last season, and while he's had an up-and-down 2024 campaign, the talent and upside are still there for him to make a significant fantasy impact.

Tigers' Spencer Torkelson: Tallies four hits Tuesday
Torkelson went 4-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Cubs.
It's a small sample, but Torkelson is now 6-for-10 since getting recalled from Triple-A Toledo over the weekend. Encouragingly, he's also only struck out twice in three games. Making consistent contact has been an issue at times for Torkelson, but the 24-year-old has tremendous power, as evidenced by his 31 home runs last season. He could make a decent fantasy impact down the stretch if he stays locked in at the plate.

Tigers' Spencer Torkelson: Two extra-base hits in return
Torkelson went 2-for-3 with a double, a triple, a walk and a run scored in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Yankees.
Torkelson registered two hard hits and reached base three times in his first major-league contest since June 1. The 24-year-old slashed .239/.356/.442 across 275 plate appearances at Triple-A Toledo and seems likely to receive the bulk of playing time at first base for the remainder of the 2024 season.

Tigers' Spencer Torkelson: Back with big club
The Tigers will recall Torkelson from Triple-A Toledo prior to Saturday's game against the Yankees, Evan Petzold of The Detroit Free Press reports.
After a 31-homer campaign in 2023, Torkelson was expected to be a staple in the heart of the Detroit lineup all season, but he was sent down to the minors June 3 after slashing .201/.266/.330 with four home runs across 229 plate appearances with the Tigers. After a somewhat lackluster first month in Toledo, Torkelson has shown improved form at the plate for the Triple-A club since the All-Star break, slashing .242/.374/.516 with six home runs and an 18.3 percent walk rate over his last 24 games. The Tigers appear ready to give the 24-year-old Torkelson another look as their everyday first baseman, with Bligh Madris getting optioned back to Toledo in a corresponding move.

Tigers' Spencer Torkelson: Struggles continuing at Triple-A
Torkelson is slashing .229/.347/.375 with five home runs, a 14.8 percent walk rate and a 30.6 percent strikeout rate over 173 plate appearances at Triple-A Toledo since his June 3 demotion.
Though he's now been at Triple-A for a month and a half, Torkelson hasn't provided any evidence that he's made enough progress with his plate approach to return to Detroit. After turning in a .129 ISO in 229 plate appearances with the Tigers prior to his demotion, Torkelson has shown only slightly more pop at against lesser pitching (.146 ISO), and his strikeout rate is actually six points higher than what he posted in the majors. Expect the Tigers to continue to get by with a committee of players at first base until Torkelson starts producing at a level that warrants a call-up.
