Tigers fans breathed a slight sigh of relief when Detroit let go of starter-turned-reliever Joey Wentz in early September of last year. Wentz made his MLB debut in 2022, but apart from seven solid starts that year, he never panned out in Detroit. The Tigers DFA'd him in September and the Pirates picked him up on waivers. He continued to underperform there, was DFA'd, was picked up on waivers by the Twins, and was DFA'd again, before it finally came full-circle when the Braves claimed him on waivers. With Wentz an afterthought this year and the Braves nowhere near playoff contention, it would've been easy for Tigers fans to root for him from afar.
