Trey Sweeney News: Playing time dwindling

Updated on June 4, 2025 at 2:08pm

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.
