Overview

• The Detroit Tigers have reportedly agreed to sign Manuel Margot to a Major League contract, though the deal is not yet officially confirmed.
• Margot, a nine-year MLB veteran, recently opted out of a non-roster invitee deal with the Milwaukee Brewers.
• The Tigers are filling a void in their outfield caused by injuries to Parker Meadows, who is sidelined for at least four weeks, and Matt Vierling.
• Margot brings versatility to the Tigers, with the ability to play all three outfield positions and a career OPS of .753 against left-handed pitching.
• His low strikeout rate, ranking in the 84th percentile last season, aligns with the Tigers' need for lineup balance and roster flexibility.
