Player Outlook
T.J Hopkins made his MLB debut in 2023 and looked overmatched (38.6 K%) against MLB pitching across two stints. He hit a ton at Triple-A Louisville, slashing .308/.411/.514 with 16 home runs, but it wasn't enough to hold a spot on the 40-man roster. Hopkins was designated for assignment and eventually traded to the Giants ahead of his age-27 season. The Reds could have used Hopkins' right-handed bat in a lefty-heavy outfield, but he was not going to be more than a fringe player. In San Francisco, Hopkins joins a logjam of 12 outfielders on the 40-man roster, and it's unclear what the Giants are planning for him.

  • Tigers' TJ Hopkins: Designated for assignment

    Hopkins was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Thursday. The move comes just two days after Hopkins was claimed off waivers, as the Tigers needed to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for Gio Urshela. Hopkins, 27, has already been in three different organizations this offseason and could make it four as he goes through the waiver process again.

  • Tigers' TJ Hopkins: Scooped up by Detroit

    The Tigers claimed Hopkins off waivers from the Giants on Tuesday. Hopkins has now bounced around from the Reds to the Giants and now to the Tigers this offseason. He struggled during his cup of coffee in Cincinnati, but the 27-year-old slashed .296/.392/.496 at Triple-A Louisville over 119 games across the 2022 and 2023 minor-league seasons. Hopkins will compete for a reserve outfielder job but is likely headed to Triple-A Toledo to begin the season.

  • Reds' TJ Hopkins: Fills in for Fairchild

    Hopkins entered Sunday's game after Stuart Fairchild left with a concussion and went 0-for-3 in a 10-3 loss to the Blue Jays. Fairchild started in right field and crashed into the wall during the second inning while attempting to make a catch. Hopkins hasn't played much since his callup Aug. 5, garnering just one start and four plate appearances. Will Benson was out of the lineup Sunday against a lefty and should return Monday against Angels righty Lucas Giolito. Lefty Reid Detmers is scheduled to face the Reds on Tuesday, which could be a spot for Hopkins or Henry Ramos.
