Davis

Davis heads to Los Angeles as extra infield depth after being released by the Tigers last July. The 26-year-old was a notable prospect a few years ago with the Angels when he launched 30 homers across a couple minor league levels during the 2021 season. He’s a low-risk lottery ticket for the Dodgers.

Davis re-signed with the Tigers last November after being non-tendered and didn’t end up making it back to Detroit. The 25-year-old infielder was a notable prospect a few seasons ago, but hasn’t quite worked out. He got into three games last year for the Tigers in his big-league debut.

The latest batch of cuts from Tigers camp trims their spring training roster to just 41 players. There are some pretty notable inclusions here as both Davis and Palacios have spent time in the majors and projects as viable middle infield options. Del Pozo, Castro and Díaz figure to be up for Detroit as extra bullpen depth sometime this year.

Davis was non-tendered by the Tigers earlier this month and will return on a new contract. The 25-year-old infielder sipped a quick cup of coffee last year, getting into three games for Detroit towards the end of the regular season. He could get a shot in a reserve role next year.

Davis, 25, finally made his big league debut in 2022, though he went just 2-for-10 (.200) with three strikeouts in his limited playing time. Now, the team that he made his debut with, has cut him loose to look for opportunities. He’ll almost assuredly have to settle for a minor league deal this winter.

The 25-year-old broke though and made his big league debut in 2022, but went just 2-for-10 with three strikeouts in his limited action with the Tigers. He should pass through waivers unclaimed and continue to serve as minor league infield depth for the Tigers -- should he choose to stick around.

Davis was called up from Triple-A Toledo on Friday and will be making his debut on Saturday evening at Comerica Park. The 25-year-old infielder was claimed off waivers from the Angels back in May and hit .235/.340/.424 with 20 homers and eight steals in 589 plate appearances over 139 games this season at the Triple-A level.

Davis was claimed off waivers from the Angels back in May. He’ll be making his major league debut when he gets into a game.

Davis had a breakout 2021 season in the minors after the Angels scooped him up in the Triple-A Phase of the Rule 5 Draft. They recently tried to sneak the 24-year-old through waivers, though, and now he’s a Tiger. Davis has hit .243/.333/.463 with six homers and two steals in 2022 at the Triple-A level.

No real surprises among the first round of cuts from Angels’ big-league camp. Perhaps the most notable inclusion is Ponce de Leon, who was vying for a spot in Los Angeles’s Opening Day rotation.
