The Detroit Tigers have selected the contract of infield prospect John Peck ahead of their upcoming series against the Minnesota Twins. Peck, a 24-year-old shortstop and third baseman, was a seventh-round pick in the 2023 draft. He spent the majority of this season with the Double-A Erie SeaWolves, where he maintained a.285 batting average with 10 home runs. While he is noted for his defensive glovework, scouting reports suggest he maintains a free-swinging approach at the plate. The organization may also consider promoting top prospect Max Anderson, a second baseman currently playing at Triple-A Toledo, as major league rosters expand to 28 players on September 1. This move arrives as the Tigers prepare to begin their series against Minnesota.
