Kreidler has joined the Tigers in Chicago for their series versus the Cubs and could be added to the roster if Javier Baez needs to go on the 10-day injured list, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Baez is undergoing tests for an undisclosed injury and the club has summoned Kreidler as insurance. The 26-year-old could get some reps at shortstop versus lefties if Baez needs to miss time, but Trey Sweeney would be in line for the bulk of the starts at the position.
