Tigers acquire Zach McKinstry from Cubs in end-of-spring trade.
The Detroit Tigers have acquired infielder Zach McKinstry from the Chicago Cubs in exchange for minor-league pitcher Carlos Guzman. McKinstry, who will be on the Tigers' Opening Day roster, has played all over the diamond and should see at-bats against right-handed pitchers, perhaps in a semi-platoon with second baseman Jonathan Schoop. The Tigers apparently preferred McKinstry to in-house options like Zack Short and veteran Cesar Hernandez.
