Boston – With Zach McKinstry being placed on the 10-day injured list (hip and abdomen inflammation) and Hao-Yu Lee being called up from Triple-A Toledo, the Tigers moved to shore up the organization’s utility depth.
According to MLB transactions, they signed 29-year Luke Ritter, who had spent the last three seasons at Triple-A Syracuse in the Mets' system.
Ritter hit 52 home runs in four Triple-A seasons (26 in 2024) and posted a .420 slugging percentage. He also carried a 30% strikeout rate.
He has played third, second and first base, as well as corner outfield.
He was released by the Angels this spring.
