The Detroit Tigers have recalled right handed relief pitcher Joe Jimenez and placed shortstop Jose Iglesias on the 7-day concussion disabled list.

Iglesias was injured trying to turn a double play in Wednesday's loss to the Tampa Bay Rays.

Jimenez was previously called up after the team sent Bruce Rondon to the AAA Toledo Mud Hens, but was returned to Toledo after appearing in only one game.

Iglesias' DL trip is retroactive to April 20 which means he would be eligible to return on April 27 at the earliest.
