The Boston Red Sox claim Casey Fien off waivers
The Red Sox have claimed 26-year old righty reliever Casey Fien off waivers. Fien pitched in 9 games (0 starts) for the Tigers last season and he was 0-1 with a 7.94 ERA and a 1.68 WHIP. Fien also pitched in 42 games (0 starts) in AAA-ball last season and he was 2-1 with 14 saves, a 3.41 ERA and a 1.14 WHIP. Fien only allowed 51 hits in 58 innings in AAA last season in the minors while whiffing 66 batters which is probably what caught the eye of the Red Sox.
UPDATE: The Red Sox tried to sneak Fien back through waivers so that they could send him to the minors but the Blue Jays claimed him.
