Tigers' Matt Boyd: Rounds out starting rotation
Boyd will serve as the Tigers' No. 5 starter to begin the 2017 season, Anthony Fenech of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Analysis:
Anibal Sanchez was informed Tuesday that he will start the season in the bullpen, meaning that Boyd has secured the No. 5 spot in the rotation. The 26-year-old has impressed in camp, posting a 2.49 ERA and 21:0 K:BB ratio over 21.2 innings. With his stellar spring performance, Boyd is worth a look as a late-round option in fantasy drafts.
