Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Losing hold of regular role
Sweeney is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.
Sweeney will sit against a right-handed starter (Cade Horton) for the second time in three games and appears to have shifted into a part-time role with Parker Meadows and Wenceel Perez off the IL, leaving fewer opportunities in the outfield for Javier Baez and Zach McKinstry. Baez will occupy shortstop and McKinstry will cover third base in Sunday's series finale.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: On bench again Friday
Sweeney is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Cubs.
It's the fourth absence in Detroit's past six games for Sweeney, who appears to have fallen out of a regular role with the Tigers getting the likes of Parker Meadows and Wenceel Perez back from the injured list over the past couple weeks. Zach McKinstry and Javier Baez have both received starts at shortstop over the last week, with Baez getting the nod Friday while McKinstry mans third base. Sweeney has been unable to get on track offensively this season with a .222/.279/.312 slash line through 60 games.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Starting Thursday
Sweeney is starting at shortstop and batting eighth in Thursday's game against the White Sox.
Sweeney has seen his playing time dwindle recently, as he only started one of Detroit's four previous games, but he'll get a chance to play in Thursday's afternoon tilt. The shortstop has been squeezed a bit by Zach McKinstry and Javier Baez. The latter started the year in center field but has since seen more time in the infield due to the return of Wenceel Perez and, more recently, Parker Meadows. As long as McKinstry and Baez stay productive at the plate, Sweeney may have to settle for a bench spot more often than not.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Playing time dwindling
Sweeney is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the White Sox.
The left-handed-hitting Sweeney has now started just one of the last four games for the Tigers. The White Sox are starting a lefty opener Wednesday in Jared Shuster, but Sweeney's absence could be more about the Tigers prioritizing playing time for Zach McKinstry -- who is at shortstop Wednesday -- and Javier Baez.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Sitting against righty
Sweeney is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.
Sweeney will be on the bench for a second straight game, this time against a right-handed starter (Jonathan Cannon) after he was absent from the lineup Sunday while southpaw Kris Bubic took the hill for the Royals. With the recent returns of Wenceel Perez and Parker Meadows from the injured list, the Tigers have less of a need for Javier Baez in the outfield and could use him more frequently at shortstop. As a result, Sweeney could be at risk of falling into more of a timeshare at the position after having occupied the strong side of a platoon for much of the season.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Taking seat Sunday
Sweeney is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.
After starting six straight games, Sweeney will hit the bench while southpaw Logan Allen toes the rubber for Cleveland. Zach McKinstry will get the nod at shortstop Sunday, but Javier Baez could end up settling in as the primary platoon mate for Sweeney once the veteran is no longer needed in the outfield.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Resting Saturday
Sweeney isn't part of the lineup for Saturday's game against Toronto.
Sweeney had been in the lineup for each of Detroit's last five matchups against left-handed starters, but he'll yield to Zach McKinstry at shortstop against southpaw Eric Lauer. The left-handed-hitting Sweeney is slashing .259/.323/.378 on the season.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Stays hot in May
Sweeney went 1-for-2 with an RBI single and a sac fly in Wednesday's 6-5 win over Boston.
Sweeney put the Tigers on the board in the second inning on an RBI single and tacked on another run in the sixth on a sacrifice fly. Sweeney has logged at least one RBI in each of his last three games, and since the beginning of May he has gone 19-for-47 (.404) with three home runs and 13 RBI.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Drives in three runs
Sweeney went 3-for-5 with a three-run homer in Monday's win against Boston.
Sweeney ripped a three-run shot during Detroit's nine-run third inning. He later singled in the fourth and eighth frames. Sweeney has been on a tear lately, producing five multi-hit games over his last seven appearances. That hot streak has boosted his season OPS from .600 to .735 with four home runs through 40 games.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Back in lineup Monday
Sweeney is starting at shortstop and batting eighth in Monday's game against the Red Sox.
Sweeney got Sunday off after starting the previous 19 games, but he'll get right back in there Monday. The 25-year-old has been hot in May, slashing .400/.417/.600 with two home runs, seven RBI and nine runs scored in nine games this month, which has helped him prop up his overall numbers after a slow start to the season.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Taking seat Sunday
Sweeney is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Sweeney started the previous 19 games and had a .736 OPS during that stretch, but he will head to the bench after striking out in all four of his plate appearances Saturday to don a Golden Sombrero. Zach McKinstry will step in at shortstop for the series finale versus Texas.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Four hits, four runs Thursday
Sweeney went 4-for-8 with four runs scored in Thursday's doubleheader sweep over the Rockies.
Sweeney has hit safely in his last eight games and has racked up four straight multi-hit efforts. During the hitting streak, he has gone 15-for-32 (.469) with two home runs, one double, seven RBI and nine runs scored. The shortstop has carved out a near-everyday role in recent weeks after beginning the year in a platoon with Javier Baez, who is now in the outfield. When the streak started, Sweeney was hitting .198, but he's up to .269 with a .732 OPS, three homers, 15 RBI, 23 runs and two stolen bases across 37 contests on the year.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Provides jolt in Sunday's big win
Sweeney went 4-for-5 with a home run, two total runs scored and six RBI in Sunday's 13-1 win over the Angels.
Sweeney tied his career high with the four hits and set a new career best for RBI in a game. It was actually the first time this season that the shortstop had multiple RBI in a contest, and just the third time that he recorded multiple hits. Sweeney is now riding a modest five-game hitting streak, during which time he's gone 8-for-20 with two home runs and seven RBI.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Lifts off in win
Sweeney went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 9-1 win over the Angels.
Sweeney hit his second home run of the season in the seventh inning, which at the time tied the game at 1-1 before the Tigers exploded for eight runs in the ninth. The shortstop is riding a modest three-game hitting streak, though he hasn't had a multi-hit performance since April 18, which has kept him from building much momentum.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Could see more time at short
Sweeney will start at shortstop and bat eighth Monday against the Padres, and he could see more time at the position with Javier Baez set to serve as the team's primary center fielder for the time being, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Sweeney was already seeing plenty of time at short, though he was getting some days off against lefties, with Baez picking up starts at his natural position of shortstop. However, with Baez set to focus more on center field, at least until the likes of Parker Meadows (shoulder) and Wenceel Perez (back) are able to return, Sweeney may have to cover short more frequently in the near term, including in matchups against southpaws. He'll face San Diego righty starter Randy Vasquez on Monday.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Back in lineup Saturday
Sweeney is starting at shortstop and batting seventh in Saturday's game against the Royals.
Sweeney received Friday off with Kansas City starting southpaw Cole Ragans but will return to the lineup against righty Seth Lugo. The young shortstop hasn't really gotten going yet, as he's batting just .228 with a .641 OPS, though he has gone 3-for-6 over his last two games.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Out of Friday's lineup
Sweeney is not in the Tigers' starting lineup against the Royals on Friday.
Sweeney has gone 3-for-11 with two RBI against left-handed pitching this season, but he'll begin Friday's contest in the dugout with the Royals sending southpaw Cole Ragans to the mound. Javier Baez will start at shortstop and bat seventh.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Notches first steal
Sweeney went 1-for-4 with a double, one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 7-6 win over the Twins.
Sweeney had gone 0-for-5 over the last four games, a stretch in which the Tigers faced three left-handed starters. The 24-year-old is firmly in a strong-side platoon role to begin the season. He's now batting .237 (9-for-38) with a home run, two doubles, one triple, seven RBI, five runs scored and a steal over 13 contests. Sweeney logged just two steals across 119 major-league plate appearances in 2024, but he logged at least 20 thefts in three straight years in the minors, so he could tap into a bit more speed if he gets on base enough.

Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Idle against lefty
Sweeney is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
The left-handed-hitting Sweeney will hit the bench for the second time in the series while the Yankees send another southpaw (Max Fried) to the bump. Javier Baez will fill in for Sweeney at shortstop.
