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.

Akil Baddoo At Risk Of Not Making Opening Day Roster
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.

Akil Baddoo Expected To Return Next Season
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.

Akil Baddoo Back In The Starting Lineup Wednesday
Detroit Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo is back in the starting lineup Wednesday night versus the Kansas City Royals and right-hander Jonathan Bowlan, who is making his MLB debut this evening. Baddoo didn't start Tuesday's series-opening 6-3 victory but did enter the game as a pinch-hitter and launched a mammoth 443-foot homer on the first pitch he saw in the eighth inning. Starts haven't been as consistent for Baddoo after prospect Parker Meadows was promoted to the big leagues and he has hit just .196 with two homers, one double, and a .608 OPS across 50 plate appearances in the month of September. He will take on a right-hander in Bowlan who has worked to a 5.91 ERA across 102 innings between Double-A and Triple-A this season.

Akil Baddoo Blasts A Two-Run Shot Versus Reds
Detroit Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo went 2-for-4 at the plate with a two-run home run and two runs scored as the Tigers beat the Reds 8-2 on Thursday. The left-handed hitter entered the contest with only three hits in his last 20 at-bats. In the 2023 campaign, the 25-year-old has battled some injuries. He's posted a slash line of .224/.309/.369 in 101 contests. In 290 trips to the plate, Baddoo has hit 10 home runs while driving in 31 runs.

Akil Baddoo Remains Out Of The Lineup
Detroit Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Chicago White Sox. The left-handed slugger will sit out his second straight game, but he doesn't appear to be dealing with an injury. Baddoo went 0-for-7 with four strikeouts during their last series. That being said, the Tigers are deciding to give him some rest and try other options. Kerry Carpenter will start in right field and bat fifth versus right-hander Touki Toussaint on Friday. Fantasy managers should adjust their lineups accordingly.

Akil Baddoo To Return On Friday
The Detroit Tigers plan to activate outfielder Akil Baddoo (quadriceps) from the 10-day injured list on Friday in time for the series opener against the Toronto Blue Jays. Baddoo will be available to fantasy managers in deeper leagues for the final series of the first half of the season against Toronto. The 24-year-old has been out since early June with a right-quadriceps strain. He went 2-for-12 with a double in four games during his minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo and will return to a .231/.341/.343 slash line with three home runs, 16 RBI, six stolen bases and 17 runs scored in 50 games at the major-league level. Baddoo hasn't been able to replicate the success he had in his rookie season in 2021, but he should play fairly regularly against right-handed pitching now that he's back.

Akil Baddoo Resumes Baseball Activities
Detroit Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo (quadriceps) started a running progression on Monday and is also playing catch and hitting flips in the batting cages. Baddoo has been out for almost two weeks while dealing with a strained right quadriceps, but he could be nearing a rehab assignment later this week. However, there is no timetable for his return from the injured list. Before getting hurt, the 24-year-old left-handed hitter had been modestly contributing at the plate, going 33-for-143 (.231) with seven doubles, three home runs, 16 RBI, six stolen bases and 17 runs scored in 50 games. Baddoo isn't much of a mixed-league fantasy option.

Tigers Put Akil Baddoo On 10-Day Injured List
The Detroit Tigers placed outfielder Akil Baddoo (quadriceps) on the 10-day injured list on Saturday with a right-quadriceps strain and recalled infielder/outfielder Nick Solak from Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move. Baddoo hurt himself in Friday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks and will now miss at least the next 10 days of action. The 24-year-old left-handed hitter has been struggling so far in June and is hitting just .231 (33-for-143) overall with seven doubles, three home runs, 16 RBI and six stolen bases in 50 games in 2023. He can continue being left to the waiver wire in mixed leagues. Solak, who was just claimed off waivers on Friday, should serve as a backup outfielder behind Kerry Carpenter for the time being.

Akil Baddoo Exits Contest With Leg Injury Friday
Detroit Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo had to leave the game due to an evident leg injury in a Friday loss to Arizona. Baddoo seemed to have strained his quad while exerting himself to reach first base after grounding out, which marked the end of the fourth inning. As a result, Andy Ibanez stepped in as his defensive replacement at the beginning of the fifth inning. The 24-year-old will undergo an additional assessment to determine the extent of the injury, and the Tigers are expected to release an update on his condition soon. In 143 at-bats, Baddoo carries a batting average of .231 with three home runs and 16 RBI.
