(WXYZ) — The Detroit Tigers are sending left-handed reliever Andrew Chafin to the Texas Rangers in exchange for righthanded pitchers Joseph Montalvo and Chase Lee.

The move was first reported by ESPN reporter Jeff Passan and the MLB Network.

Both Montalvo and Lee have pitched in the Rangers farm system and have yet to make an appearance in the Major Leagues.
