Reed's contract was purchased from Triple-A Toledo on Thursday, James Schmehl of MLive.com reports.

Evan Reed has been charged with two counts of third-degree sexual assault as a result of an incident that occurred on March 30 in a Motor City Casino hotel room.
Each charge carries a prison term of up to 15 years if Reed is convicted. Reed allegedly met a 45-year-old woman at a bar that night before taking her back to his room and assaulting her. Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy said that he has interview numerous witnesses and also reviewed surveillance footage before the charges were brought. Reed, who is currently at Triple-A Toledo, is expected to turn himself into the authorities.

Tigers designated RHP Evan Reed for assignment.
Reed put up a 23/9 K/BB ratio over 25 2/3 relief innings for the Tigers this season, but it also came along with a 4.91 ERA. There's a chance the 28-year-old could draw some interest on waivers, though the potential sexual assault charge hanging over his head might scare teams off.

Police are investigating a claim that Evan Reed sexually assaulted a woman in a Motor City Casino hotel room on March 30.
The woman told police that she met Reed at a bar and then didn't remember anything until waking up in a Motor City Casino hotel room. "The organization is aware of the very serious allegation that has been made against pitcher Evan Reed," Tigers officials said in a statement released Monday night. "This allegation is concerning and we are aware of an ongoing investigation. It would be inappropriate for the ballclub to comment further at this time." Reed hasn't been charged with a crime and is with the Tigers for a five-game roadtrip which will begin Tuesday.
