So who goes from the 40-man roster to make room for this stiff?

I tweeted Jason Beck and he responded; "Nothing yet. Don?t need one until Saturday, since it was a minor-league deal".
 
So, if you are keeping score.

Josh Wilson was designated for assignment to sign Marc Krauss off of waivers. Wilson was signed as Free Agent and took someone's spot on the 40-man roster.

Marc Krauss was released to get Randy Wolf and put him on the 40-man roster.

No big deal you say....how about the fact that the Tigers have to pay all 4 players for the same 40-man roster spot, even if it is the league minimum. Wilson is playing in TOL, but they still are obligated for his MLB salary. Krauss was outright released, so whatever the Tigers were paying him, they have to continue to year's end. And now Wolf.

I still don't know who lost a spot when Wilson was signed.

Hard to believe Tigers had to go shopping for pitching. All those hard throwing 1st round draft picks. Where they, I know some have been used for trades. But really this team should be loaded with pitching.

Amazing they do not have any one better than Wolf in there system.
