The Twins claimed Kreidler off waivers from the Pirates on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Kreidler had been booted off the Pirates' 40-man roster earlier this week and has now found a new home. The 27-year-old has slashed just .138/.208/.176 over parts of four major-league seasons and is only a career .236/.342/.401 hitter in the minors. Kreidler does offer positional versatility and will likely compete for a reserve role on the Twins next season.

The Pirates designated Kreidler for assignment Monday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The transaction clears a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of waiver claim Will Robertson. Kreidler was a waiver claim of the Pirates himself in August but never saw any action with Pittsburgh.

The Pirates optioned Kreidler to Triple-A Indianapolis on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

After being called up from Triple-A a week ago, Kreidler didn't appear in any games during his brief stay in the majors. The Pirates will replace him on the active roster with utility player Ji Hwan Bae, who was recalled from Indianapolis.

The Pirates recalled Kreidler from Triple-A Indianapolis on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old was claimed off waivers by Pittsburgh last weekend and will now get a look in the big leagues after Isiah Kiner-Falefa was claimed by the Blue Jays. Kreidler can play multiple spots in the infield and outfield and should serve as a super-utility player.

The Pirates claimed Kriedler off waivers from the Tigers on Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Indianapolis.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old Kreidler is capable of playing multiple infield and outfield spots, but he's slashed just .138/.208/.176 over 211 plate appearances across parts of four seasons in the majors with the Tigers. He'll report to the minors with his new organization but could be a candidate for a call-up when Pittsburgh's active roster expands to 28 men Sept. 1.

The Tigers designated Kreidler for assignment Friday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kreidler has spent most of the 2025 season in the minor leagues, and he hasn't logged a big-league at-bat since April 20. The 27-year-old infielder will surrender his spot on the 40-man roster to Drew Sommers, who had his contract selected from Triple-A Toledo.

The Tigers optioned Kreidler to Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kreidler's latest stint in the majors lasted just one day and he did not see any action. He's clearing out to make room for Chris Paddack, who was officially added to the active roster Tuesday.

The Tigers recalled Kreidler from Triple-A Toledo on Monday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kreidler will be up with the Tigers for the first time since April, but he'll likely be in store for only a brief stay with the big club. The utility man will be a prime candidate to return to Triple-A Toledo when right-hander Chris Paddack -- whom the Tigers acquired from the Twins earlier Monday -- is added to the 26-man active roster later this week. Kreidler owns a .775 OPS in 68 games with Toledo this season but slashed just .105/.190/.105 in 44 plate appearances for Detroit earlier in the campaign.

The Tigers optioned Kreidler to Triple-A Toledo on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Kreidler has served as the Tigers' primary center fielder this season while Parker Meadows (shoulder) is shelved, but his playing time had dipped recently and the club has now elected to replace him on the roster. Javier Baez is drawing his first career start in center field Monday and Riley Greene will also be used at the position as Meadows continues to work his way back.

Kreidler is not in the Tigers' starting lineup against the Royals on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Kreidler went 0-for-2 with two walks and one run scored in Thursday's contest, but he's recorded just one hit since April 4. He'll begin Friday's game in the dugout while Kerry Carpenter, Riley Greene and Zach McKinstry man the outfield.
