The Tigers acquired Sweeney and catcher Thayron Liranzo from the Dodgers on Tuesday in exchange for right-hander Jack Flaherty, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Sweeney is on the move to his second organization in less than a year after the Dodgers acquired him from the Yankees in December. The 24-year-old shortstop was a first-round pick in 2021 and has a .254/.334/.427 slash line with 13 home runs and 16 steals in 96 games at the Triple-A level this season.
