Well this didn’t take long. Shortstop Trey Sweeney, acquired just over two weeks ago in the deal that sent Jack Flaherty to the Los Angeles Dodgers, will be called up for his major league debut during this weekend’s home series against the New York Yankees. Things will come full circle for the 24-year-old, left-handed hitting infielder, as the Yankees were the team that drafted him back in 2021 out of Eastern Illinois University with the 20th overall pick.
Kiley McDaniel of ESPN was the first to report the news, which was quickly confirmed by Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press.
