The Tigers recalled Lee from Triple-A Toledo on Saturday. With Jack Flaherty (ankle) landing on the injured list Saturday, Lee will return to Detroit to provide the big club with an extra bat and start at third base against lefty Joey Cantillo and the Guardians. Lee owns just a .578 OPS across 87 plate appearances with the Tigers but has gone 9-for-30 in Triple-A since his demotion.

Sent to Triple-A
The Tigers optioned Lee to Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday. The 23-year-old has been up in the majors since mid-April but will return to Triple-A with Gleyber Torres (oblique) coming off the injured list Tuesday. In his first taste of the big leagues, Lee posted a .205/.241/.337 slash line with two home runs, nine RBI and six runs in 32 games.
Hits second home run Monday
Lee went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Monday's 10-9 win over the Rays. Lee's second home run at the MLB level was one of five long balls hit by Detroit in the high-scoring contest. The 23-year-old infielder is off to a fairly slow start with a .205 batting average and .578 OPS across his first 32 games in the majors, though he's seeing more playing time at second base with Gleyber Torres (oblique) on the injured list. However, Torres could be back as soon as Tuesday, which would likely push Lee back to the bench or down to the minors.
