Michael Pineda was designated for assignment by the Detroit Tigers on Monday. A.J. Hinch is not happy about it.
Pineda joined the Tigers this season after signing a one-year, $5.5 million contract. He has struggled to stay healthy and has only made 11 starts and thrown 46 2/3 innings. Pinedi played for the Seattle Mariners, New York Yankees and Minnesota Twins.
