After a couple moves to the front office, Detroit Tigers president of baseball operations Scott Harris has completed his first roster transactions since taking over day-to-day operations of the club last week.
The Tigers claimed utility infielder Jermaine Palacios off waivers from the Minnesota Twins on Tuesday, and in another move, right-hander Drew Hutchison was designated for assignment for the third time in 2022.
Palacios, 26, made his MLB debut in May.
The Twins signed Palacios out of Venezuela in 2014, but he was traded to the Tampa Bay Rays in February 2018 in exchange for right-hander Jake Ordorizzi.
