Law's contract was purchased from Triple-A Toledo on Friday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Tigers had a bullpen game Friday and need a fresh reliever, so Law gets added to the 40-man roster and the active roster. He has a 5.57 ERA and 1.33 WHIP in 21 innings across 19 appearances out of the Triple-A bullpen since the beginning of June.

Law agreed with the Tigers on a minor-league contract Saturday, Jared Purcell of MLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Law spent the 2021 campaign in the Twins organization, appearing in nine games at the big-league level before finishing the season at Triple-A St. Paul and being outrighted off the 40-man roster in September. He then elected free agency in the offseason, missing all of spring training before signing with Detroit. Law will stick around at the Tigers' extended spring training facility in Florida to complete his buildup program before likely joining the team's Triple-A affiliate in Toledo later this month. The 31-year-old right-hander has covered 181.1 innings over parts of five seasons in the majors, accruing a 4.22 ERA and 1.44 WHIP.

Law cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday, Brandon Warne of Access Twins reports.
EDGE Analysis
Law had been on the 10-day injured list since July 17 due to a right shoulder impingement but was designated for assignment Sunday. He recently tossed three scoreless innings across two rehab appearances at Triple-A St. Paul, and he'll remain with the minor-league club after he went unclaimed on waivers.

The Twins designated Law for assignment Sunday, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
Law, who's been on the injured list since July 17 with a right shoulder impingement, loses his 40-man roster spot to allow for Luke Farrell's return from the 60-day IL. Law has been decent with a 4.20 ERA in 15 relief innings this season, but his injury makes him unlikely to get claimed on waivers in the next couple days.

The Twins placed Law on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a right shoulder impingement, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
Law allowed one run in 8.2 innings after rejoining the Twins on July 1. Overall in 2021, the righty has pitched 15 innings with the big-league club and posted a 4.20 ERA. It's unclear how long Law will be sidelined as his throwing shoulder recovers.

Law's contract was selected by the Twins on Thursday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Law was cast off the 40-man roster and outrighted to Triple-A St. Paul in mid-May, and he's posted a 4.61 ERA in 13.2 innings with the minor-league club this year. He's recorded an 8.53 ERA and 2.68 WHIP in 6.1 innings across five appearances with the Twins in 2021, and he should serve mainly as a low-leverage reliever after right-hander Matt Shoemaker was designated for assignment.

Law's contract was selected by the Twins on Saturday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Law failed to break camp with the major-league club this year, but he'll join Minnesota's bullpen as part of a shuffle after right-hander Cody Stashak was optioned to Triple-A St. Paul and Travis Blankenhorn was designated for assignment. Law allowed three hits and three walks while striking out 13 in eight scoreless innings this spring.

Law will not break camp in the big leagues, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
Law threw eight scoreless innings this spring, striking out 13 batters while walking three and allowing three hits, but it wasn't enough earn him a roster spot. The fact that he's not on the 40-man roster certainly didn't help his case. He could be one of the team's top depth options this season, though the lack of a 40-man spot will hurt him there as well.
