Valdez allowed one run on two hits across six innings of work and did not factor into the decision in the first game of Sunday's doubleheader against the Orioles. He walked two and struck out five.

Sat, May 23, 2026 at 12:53 PM

Valdez and the Tigers won't face the Orioles on Saturday, as the game was postponed due to rain.

Scouting Report

Displays a great arsenal, which includes an excellent breaking pitch, fastball, sinker and changeup. His pitches offer great movement, as well, which make him hard to hit against. Can be used as either a starter or reliever. In order to become a quality starting pitcher in Major League Baseball, he will need to improve both his control and his command (especially with regards to his changeup, which is clearly his fourth-best pitch).

Long Range Potential: Solid, versatile left-hander with some upside.
