CLEVELAND – Better late than never.
Lefty Brant Hurter, a vital piece of the Tigers' bullpen the last two seasons, was activated off the injured list Sept. 6.
"We've finally got nine relievers," manager AJ Hinch said. "We haven't had that in a while."
It was a pretty nice birthday present for Hurter, who turned 28 Sunday. He has been out since May 23 with lumbar spine inflammation. He's been healthy for several weeks but his rehab ***** ignment was extended to eight outings with Triple-A Toledo because of performance issues.
He struggled to get his velocity back over 90 mph on his sinker. But he seemed back to form in his last two outings.
