On Sunday, the Detroit Tigers will finish their series with the Chicago White Sox (at home).
They will look to avoid getting swept after losing each of the first two games.
Most recently, the Tigers lost by a score of 4-3 on Saturday.
Detroit Tigers Cut 28-Year-Old Outfielder

Ahead of Sunday’s game, the Tigers announced several roster moves.
Tigers PR wrote: “The Tigers today selected the contract of OF Brett Callahan from Triple-A Toledo. Callahan, who will wear uniform #34, joins the first major league roster of his professional career. OF Trei Cruz has been designated for assignment.”
OF Trei Cruz has been designated for assignment.
Cruz made his MLB debut earlier this season (he was picked in the 3rd round of the 2020 MLB Draft).
The 28-year-old appeared in two games for the Tigers.
It will be interesting to see if he gets claimed by another team on waivers.
There is also the chance that Cruz ends up back with the Tigers (in Triple-A).

Here’s what people were saying about the news:
@BronScreams0323: “Kinda annoying that they DFA’d Cruz but glad to see Callahan getting a shot, tho it feels a little premature with under 40 AAA games and not much power at that level to speak of”
@therogcast: “Callahan had some of the loudest and longest home runs in the spring.”
@lineofmorgadec: “feel bad for cruz but i always love watching rookies make their debut 🥲”
