Tigers INF Colt Keith (ribs) on ALDS roster after missing wild-card series

After missing the wild-card round, Detroit infielder Colt Keith is back on the roster for the Tigers' American League Divisional Series against Seattle. Keith, who was activated from the 10-day injured list on Monday after missing time with right rib cage inflammation, was left off the Tigers' 26-man roster for their wild-card series at Cleveland which they won in three games. The 24-year-old lefty has a .256 average with 13 homers, 22 doubles and 65 runs in 137 games this season. In seven playoff games last season, Keith was 2-for-18 (.111) with a double, six walks and eight strikeouts. Keith started 32 games at third base this season. Zach McKinstry (.259, 12 homers this season) has largely replaced him there while Keith missed the end of the regular season. Detroit also added right-handed reliever Brenan Hanifee (3-3, 3.00 ERA) to its ALDS roster, removing reliever Paul Sewald (1-1, 4.58) and outfielder Justyn- Henry Malloy (.221-1-17) from its wild-card roster. Sewald pitched in just four games for the Tigers in the regular season after being acquired from the Guardians at the trade deadline . –Field Level Media
