Zachary Short: Breaking News

Short signed a major-league contract with the Tigers on Friday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports. Short elected free agency after being outrighted to Triple-A on Thursday, but he'll now return to the Tigers and reclaim a spot on the active roster. The 30-year-old has gone 0-for-3 with a strikeout while appearing in just two games with Detroit this season, and he'll presumably continue to serve as bench depth while in the majors. Jace Jung was optioned to Toledo in a corresponding move.

Short cleared waivers Thursday and was sent outright to Triple-A Toledo, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. Short was pushed off the 40-man roster Tuesday once Zach McKinstry came off the injured list. Now that he's cleared waivers, Short will have the option to decline his outright assignment and elect free agency, and it remains unknown what he will do. The 30-year-old infielder has had minimal success at the big-league level during his career, slashing just .171/.269/.295 through 597 plate appearances since debuting in 2021.

The Tigers designated Short for assignment Tuesday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. The 30-year-old was added to the big-league roster Sunday and will quickly be removed with Zach McKinstry (hip) coming off the injured list. Short appeared in two games during his brief time with the Tigers and went 0-for-3 with a strikeout while also committing an error.
