Foley pitched a perfect 10th inning to record the save in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
For the second straight night, Foley made quick work of Kansas City to wrap up a critical win for the Tigers as they continue their playoff push. The righty needed 13 pitches to record his 24th save on Monday and needed just 11 pitches to secure save No. 25 on Tuesday. Foley has only allowed two earned runs over his last 22 appearances, and he's lowered his ERA to a tidy 2.97 in the process. Southpaw Tyler Holton is seeing some save opportunities in the right matchups, but Foley is still the top closing option in Detroit's bullpen most days.

Foley earned the save Sunday, striking out two over 1.1 perfect innings against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Foley was called upon to finish out the eighth inning after an Adley Rutschman homer brought the Orioles to within one, striking out Coby Mayo, then retiring the side in the ninth to finish off his 23rd save of the season. It was a nice rebound effort for Foley, who had allowed two runs in his last appearance, the first time he had allowed an earned run since the end of July.

Foley (3-6) allowed two runs on two hits across an inning of work to take the loss Thursday against the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
A day after recording his 22nd save of the season, Foley was less effective in a non-save situation Thursday. The righty entered in a 2-2 game and allowed his first earned runs in an appearance since July 30. Foley's recent success and his 3.15 ERA overall should keep him locked in as Detroit's primary closer, thought lefty Tyler Holton has also been good, and the latter should continue to see save opportunities in the right matchups.

Foley pitched a scoreless ninth inning to record the save in Wednesday's 7-4 win over the Rockies. He walked one and struck out two.
EDGE Analysis
While Tyler Holton has worked his way into the closer mix with seven saves this season, Foley has recorded Detroit's last two saves, and he now has a team-high 22 for the year. The righty doesn't miss a ton of bats, as he has only 40 strikeouts across 53.1 innings, but he's been effective in his role nonetheless. With the Tigers scrapping to stay in contention for a playoff spot, Foley should continue to see plenty of high-leverage work in the season's final few weeks.

EDGE Analysis

Foley pitched a scoreless ninth inning with two strikeouts to record the save the in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Foley has recorded the save each of the last two days against Los Angeles, giving him 19 for the season. That's easily a career high for the righty, as he came into the year with just seven saves across his first three MLB campaigns, all of which came in 2023. The Tigers have used Tyler Holton and Shelby Miller on occasion to close out games, but Foley has established himself as the top option in Detroit's bullpen.
