Report: Avisail Garcia among Sept. call-ups

The Tigers have put a moratorium on talking about their Sept. 1 call-ups, but reports are bound to come out eventually.

One came out Friday afternoon, from Carlos Rios (@rioscaribes on Twitter) that the Tigers were calling up right-handed hitting outfielder Avisail Garcia from Double-A Erie.

Erie teammate Tyler Clark later tweeted "Good luck brother." Jason Beck of MLB.com confirmed it with sources in Erie.

The 21-year-old Garcia was hitting .312 in 55 games at Erie, with six home runs, three triples and nine doubles.
