Tigers catcher Tucker Barnhart is now switch-hitting

Two-and-a-half years after he ditched switch hitting to bat exclusively from the left side, Tucker Barnhart has decided to go back. Barnhart, who took cuts from both sides of the plate in batting practice on Tuesday, is officially a switch hitter again. “I’ve done it for a long time,” said Barnhart, who is a natural left-handed hitter but had 402 plate appearances as a right-handed hitter from 2014-2019.

I’m just hoping to do my small part to help them get better.”Is he still the union rep? It was an interesting, unique time.”If Boyd doesn’t return and Barnhart wants to handoff his union duties, his eventual successor may be a few lockers away.

Publicly the Tigers have confirmed only two other positions on their winter wish list: Shortstop and starting pitcher. These are players that Tigers general manager Al Avila should call right now, before the hot stove gets too warm.

Some of those players will be younger and potentially more attractive than traditional free agents, so stay tuned.
