Detwiler was designated for assignment Friday.

Analysis:

Detwiler was struggling through his first seven appearances this season, posting a 5.79 ERA and 1.50 WHIP while striking out just three batters. He will head to Triple-A in order to make room in the Indians' bullpen for Tommy Hunter, who was activated from the 15-day DL in a corresponding move.
