Detroit Tigers manager AJ Hinch announced Monday night that outfielder Akil Baddoo will be recalled from Triple-A Toledo Tuesday, per Detroit News' Chris McCosky. Kody Clemens will be optioned in a corresponding move. Hinch said that Baddoo may not be in the lineup Tuesday, as the Tigers will face lefty Kris Bubic. Baddoo has hit very well in Triple-A this season, slashing .300/.405/.500 with three home runs, 15 RBI, and seven steals in 30 games. The 23-year-old flashed some power and speed last season and may be worth a roster spot in deeper roto leagues upon his recall.--Connelly Doan - RotoBaller

Detroit Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo has cleared waivers and has been outrighted to Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday. The 26-year-old was designated for assignment last week, but will stick with the organization. Baddoo has struggled in each of the last three seasons after entering the MLB with a bang in 2021. Baddoo hit .259/.330/.436 with 13 home runs and 55 RBI with 18 stolen bases during his rookie season in 2021 with the Tigers. Last season, Baddoo posted his worst stats of his career with a .159 batting average with two home runs and five RBI in 31 games. He figures to start the season in the minors and could get another chance if he can prove himself in Toledo.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller

Detroit Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's victory against the Boston Red Sox. Baddoo was recently recalled from Triple-A Toledo with outfielder Kerry Carpenter (back) being placed on the 10-day injured list. Baddoo has been a popular preseason pick for managers over the past few seasons, but has failed to live up to expectations throughout his career. With Carpenter sidelined, Baddoo should continue to see at-bats versus right-handed pitching, but he will need to string together some good games before managers have reason to take a chance with him. Baddoo will look to keep it going on Friday in a tough matchup versus Tanner Houck and the Boston Red Sox.--Daniel Burdeen - RotoBaller

Detroit Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo may or may not make the team's Opening Day roster, according to Evan Woodberry of MLive. Baddoo put together a poor 2023 season, slashing .218/.310/.372 with 11 home runs, 34 RBI, and 14 stolen bases over 312 at-bats. The organization is high on Parker Meadows, who impressed with his defensive ability and speed on the basepaths in a small sample size of 37 games last season. The team could begin the season with Meadows at center field and Riley Greene and Matt Vierling occupying the corner outfield spots. That scenario doesn't leave room for Baddoo. He does have experience playing center field, however, so if Meadows were to struggle, he could fill in for him. The Detroit outfield should come into more focus as spring training gets underway, but for now, it looks like Baddoo could be on the outside looking in.--Jon Mathisen - RotoBaller

Detroit Tigers president of baseball operations Scott Harris said at the general manager meetings this week that the team is expected to tender outfielder Akil Baddoo a contract for 2024. "He still very much fits in...There is a role for him. We're not an organization that wants to give up players that can affect the game in that way for nothing," Harris said. In his first year of arbitration eligibility, Baddoo is projected to make less than $2 million in 2024, so the Tigers will keep the 25-year-old around despite another disappointing season in which he slashed .218/.310/.372 with 11 home runs, 13 doubles, a triple, 34 RBI, 14 stolen bases and 40 runs scored in 112 games played. Baddoo will likely be ticketed for a part-time role in 2024 and will give fantasy managers a modest power/speed combination.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
