Tigers' Andy Ibanez: Summoned to majors

Ibanez was recalled from Triple-A Toledo on Saturday.

Ibanez has played first base, second base, third base, left field and designated hitter thus far at Triple-A, so he should be poised for a utility role in the short term. The 30-year-old slashed .297/.418/.609 with five home runs and two steals in 20 games for the Mud Hens. The last time he had a stat line this impressive was in 2021 when he was with the Rangers' Triple-A affiliate. Ibanez is not in the lineup for Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Orioles.
