Tyler agreed to a minor-league contract with Chicago on Monday, per MLB's transactions log.
Tyler chose free agency after being designated for assignment by the Orioles on June 28. He'll presumably report to Triple-A Charlotte after putting pen to paper on his new deal. Tyler owns a 4.19 ERA and 1.46 WHIP with a 46:24 K:BB across 66.2 innings so far this season during stops with Triple-A Norfolk and Lehigh Valley.

Kyle Tyler: Elects free agency
Rotowire
Tyler refused an outright assignment to Triple-A Norfolk and elected free agency Tuesday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
The right-hander cleared waivers after being designated for assignment by the Orioles over the weekend, and he'll test the open market rather than reporting to Norfolk. Tyler has yet to appear in the majors this season and has a 4.19 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 46:24 K:BB across 66.2 innings at the Triple-A level.

Orioles' Kyle Tyler: DFA'd by Baltimore
Rotowire
The Orioles designated Tyler for assignment Saturday.
The move makes room on the Orioles' 40-man roster for Emmanuel Rivera, whose contract was selected by Baltimore from Triple-A Norfolk. Tyler was claimed off waivers by the Orioles in mid-June after he was DFA'd by the Phillies on June 8. Across 14 games (12 starts) in Triple-A this season, Tyler has a 4.19 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 46:24 K:BB in 66.2 innings.

Orioles' Kyle Tyler: Scooped up by O's
Rotowire
The Orioles claimed Tyler off waivers from the Phillies on Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Norfolk, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
Baltimore had an opening on its 40-man roster, so no corresponding move was needed to make room for Tyler. The 28-year-old right-hander will join his eighth different organization since entering the professional ranks in 2018. Tyler had pitched exclusively at Triple-A Lehigh Valley this season, accruing a 4.31 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 43:21 K:BB in 62.2 innings. He'll presumably slot into the rotation for Norfolk and could be an option to make starts for Baltimore later in 2025.

Phillies' Kyle Tyler: Removed from 40-man roster
Rotowire
The Phillies designated Tyler for assignment Sunday.
Tyler joined Philadelphia as a waiver claim last August and has pitched to a 4.31 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 43:21 K:BB over 62.2 innings with Triple-A Lehigh Valley this season. He made eight appearances (seven starts) with the Marlins in 2024, posting a 5.40 ERA and 1.74 WHIP with a 25:18 K:BB over 31.2 frames. Tyler's removal from the 40-man roster made room for new acquisition Ryan Cusick, whom Philadelphia claimed off waivers from the White Sox on Sunday.

Phillies' Kyle Tyler: Dispatched to Lehigh Valley
Rotowire
The Phillies optioned Tyler to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Saturday.
Tyler really never had much of a shot to make the Phillies' Opening Day rotation, and he didn't help his chances with five runs allowed and a 7:6 K:BB over 9.1 spring innings. He'll instead begin the year in Lehigh Valley's rotation and look to improve upon the 5.82 ERA he accumulated upon joining the Phillies organization back in August.

Phillies' Kyle Tyler: Claimed by Philly
Rotowire
The Phillies claimed Tyler off waivers from the Marlins on Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
The right-hander was designated for assignment by Miami on Friday, and Philadelphia scooped him up to bolster the organization's pitching depth. Tyler made eight appearances (seven starts) for the Marlins this year and posted a 5.40 ERA, 1.74 WHIP and 25:18 K:BB across 31.2 innings.

Marlins' Kyle Tyler: DFA'd by Miami
Rotowire
The Marlins designated Tyler for assignment Friday.
The right-hander made his eighth outing of the season Thursday versus the Reds and gave up three runs over 4.1 innings, and it will end up being his last turn through the Marlins' rotation. Tyler posted a 5.40 ERA, 1.74 WHIP and 25:18 K:BB across 31.2 innings.

Marlins' Kyle Tyler: Falls short of five frames again
Rotowire
Tyler allowed three runs on five hits and two walks while striking out three batters over 4.1 innings in a no-decision against Cincinnati on Thursday.
Tyler struggled from the outset, giving up two runs in the first inning. He was better after that, yielding just one additional run, though he exited after 84 pitches with one out in the fourth having allowed two of the first three batters in that frame to reach base. It was the fourth straight outing in which Tyler has failed to complete five frames -- in fact, he's reached the five-inning mark just once over his first seven starts. The right-hander has posted a poor 5.40 ERA, 1.74 WHIP and 25:18 K:BB across 31.2 innings in the majors this season.

Marlins' Kyle Tyler: Short outing Saturday
Rotowire
Tyler allowed three runs on five hits and four walks while striking out two over 2.2 innings in a no-decision versus Atlanta on Saturday.
Tyler threw 40 of 73 pitches for strikes in the shaky outing, his shortest since his season debut in a relief appearance April 26. The right-hander's four walks were a season high, and he gave up a home run for the second start in a row. He's completed five innings just once this year, pitching to a 5.27 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and 22:16 K:BB across 27.1 innings over seven appearances (six starts). Tyler's numbers wouldn't justify him sticking around most major-league rosters, but the Marlins have had terrible injury luck with their starters in 2024. He's tentatively projected for a home start versus the Reds in his next outing.

Rotowire
Tyler (0-2) allowed four runs on seven hits and two walks over four innings Sunday, striking out five and taking a loss against the Brewers.
Tyler coughed up a two-run shot to Jake Bauers in the first inning and allowed two more runs in the fourth. It was the first time Tyler's allowed more than three runs in an MLB outing. His season ERA jumped to 4.74 with a 20:12 K:BB through 24.2 innings. Assuming Tyler gets another start, he's currently in line for a matchup in Atlanta.

Marlins' Kyle Tyler: Receives another start
Rotowire
Tyler is scheduled to start Sunday's game against the Brewers in Milwaukee.
Tyler will be making his second straight turn through the rotation after he struck out five batters and gave up three runs on nine hits and two walks over 4.2 innings in a no-decision against the Orioles last Tuesday following his promotion from Triple-A Jacksonville. Over five outings (four starts) with Miami on the season, Tyler owns a 3.92 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 15:10 K:BB across 20.2 innings.

Marlins' Kyle Tyler: Allows three runs in no-decision
Rotowire
Tyler allowed three runs on nine hits and two walks over 4.2 innings in a no-decision Tuesday against Baltimore. He struck out five.
Tyler was lucky to hold the Orioles to just three runs Tuesday -- he benefited from a pair of Baltimore outs on the basepaths in addition to a key double-play ball in the first inning. Still, it took the 27-year-old Tyler a total of 94 pitches to make it through 4.2 frames. Overall, the right-hander has been a solid stop-gap option in an injury-depleted Marlins' rotation -- Tyler hadn't allowed more than two runs or four hits in any of his four outings prior to Tuesday. He's 0-1 with a 3.92 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 15:10 K:BB across 20.2 innings in the majors this year. Tyler's currently lined up to face the Brewers on the road in his next start this weekend.

Marlins' Kyle Tyler: Officially summoned
Rotowire
The Marlins recalled Tyler from Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday. He'll start Tuesday's game against the Orioles.
As expected, Tyler will join the Marlins' active roster to make his fourth big-league start of the season. While he'll face a tough Orioles lineup, Tyler showed well in some difficult matchups earlier in the season, logging a 3.21 ERA with nine strikeouts across 14 innings in his three starts against Boston, Philadelphia and Seattle.

Marlins' Kyle Tyler: Tuesday promotion incoming
Rotowire
Tyler will be recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville to start Tuesday's game against the Orioles, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Tyler is set to face a difficult Baltimore lineup in what will be his fifth big-league appearance of the season. He's pitched well when called upon for the big club this season, posting a 3.38 ERA and 1.19 WHIP with a 10:8 K:BB across 16 innings.

Marlins' Kyle Tyler: Heading back to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Marlins optioned Tyler to Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday.
Tyler had made three straight starts with the Marlins, allowing five runs across 15.0 innings with nine strikeouts. However, the 27-year-old will give up his spot on the active roster to Bryan Hoeing (hamstring), who'll be activated from the IL to start Friday's game against the White Sox.
Tyler allowed two runs on three hits and three walks while striking out three batters over 5.1 innings in a no-decision against Boston on Thursday.
He couldn't come close to matching the dominant performance of opposing starter Nick Pivetta, but Tyler was able to keep the Marlins in the contest and was taken off the hook for a loss after Miami posted an eighth-inning rally. Tyler's 5.1 frames were a career high, and he has now given up two or fewer runs in each of his four appearances this season, though he's totaled just 16 frames over those outings. The right-hander has pitched well enough with a 3.38 overall ERA to remain in Miami's rotation for the time being, though it remains to be seen if he'll stick around once the team's staff starts to get healthy.
Tyler (0-1) took the loss against the Phillies on Friday, allowing one run on four hits and two walks with four strikeouts over 4.2 innings.
Tyler opened with four scoreless innings but put runners on the corners with no outs in the fifth. He was able to limit the damage to one run and was pulled with one out to go in the frame after 81 pitches, in part because the Phillies were without Bryce Harper (hamstring) and Kyle Schwarber (groin). Tyler has now allowed three total earned runs with a 6:5 K:BB over 8.2 innings in his first two major-league starts. The 27-year-old likely earned another start next week against the Red Sox.

Marlins' Kyle Tyler: Picking up another start
Rotowire
Tyler is slated to start Friday's game in Philadelphia.
He'll receive a second straight turn through the Miami rotation after he took a no-decision his last time out Sunday against the Mariners, covering four innings and striking out two while giving up two runs on three hits and three walks. With injuries having hit the Miami pitching staff hard, Tyler could be in store for additional starts beyond Friday, even if he continues to underwhelm.
