(AP) -- DETROIT - The Detroit Tigers plan to recall pitcher Jay Sborz from Triple-A Toledo to replace Rick Porcello.
The team said in a statement that Sborz will be in uniform Tuesday night when the Tigers play the New York Mets.
The righthanded Sborz has compiled a 1-1 record, 3.04 ERA, 15 saves and 28 strikeouts in 24 appearances with the Mud Hens.
Porcello was optioned to Toledo before Sunday's game against Arizona. After going 14-9 as a 20-year-old rookie last year, the struggling right-hander was 4-7 with a 6.14 ERA this season.
