TJ Hopkins: Cut by Detroit
The Tigers released Hopkins on Friday.
Hopkins reached the big leagues for the first time in 2023 and appeared in 25 games with the Reds, but after landing with the Tigers last offseason, he played exclusively at the Double-A level in 2024. He turned in an ugly .190/.326/.329 slash line over 95 plate appearances with Double-A Erie before being shut down for the season last May due to a shoulder injury. It's not clear if Hopkins is healthy or not heading into the 2025 season, but the Tigers will let him explore his options in free agency.

Tigers' TJ Hopkins: Placed on full-season IL
Hopkins was placed on the full-season injured list by Double-A Erie on Friday after undergoing a right shoulder labrum repair procedure this week, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Hopkins slashed .190/.326/.329 with four RBI and two home runs for the Seawolves before getting injured in early May. The 27-year-old outfielder, who made his big-league debut in 2023 with the Reds, will look to get healthy in time for spring training in 2025.

Tigers' TJ Hopkins: Sent to Triple-A
Hopkins cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Toledo on Sunday.
Hopkins was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Thursday but will stick in the organization after he passed through waivers unclaimed. The 27-year-old spent most of last season at the Triple-A level with the Reds and had a .925 OPS in 94 contests.

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.

Giants' TJ Hopkins: Designated for assignment

Giants' TJ Hopkins: Dealt to San Francisco
The Giants acquired Hopkins from the Reds on Tuesday in exchange for a player to be named later or cash considerations.
Hopkins was designated for assignment by Cincinnati last week. The 26-year-old outfielder went 7-for-41 (.171) over his first 25 major-league games in 2023 but owns a .297/.392/.497 career Triple-A slash line.

Reds' TJ Hopkins: Designated for assignment
The Reds designated Hopkins for assignment Thursday.
Hopkins loses his spot on Cincinnati's 40-man roster to make room for Austin Wynns, who signed with the Reds on Thursday. Hopkins slashed .171/.227/.171 across 44 major-league plate appearances last season, though his .925 OPS in Triple-A could be attractive for other clubs browsing the waiver wire.

Reds' TJ Hopkins: Optioned to Triple-A
The Reds optioned Hopkins to Triple-A Louisville on Friday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Hopkins will head back to Triple-A after going 3-for-17 with three runs scored and 10 strikeouts since being recalled Aug. 5. He's had a strong season with Louisville but has done little at the major-league level in 2023.

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.

Reds' TJ Hopkins: Recalled from Triple-A
Hopkins was recalled from Triple-A Louisville on Saturday.
Jake Fraley (toe) was placed on the 10-day injured list, so Hopkins will come up to offer some outfield depth. Hopkins is slashing .318/.425/.541 with 16 home runs in 85 games at Triple-A, but he is hitting .167 with zero home runs in 14 MLB games this season.

Reds' TJ Hopkins: Optioned to Triple-A
Cincinnati optioned Hopkins to Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.
Hopkins gets the boot from the active roster with Jake Fraley (wrist) activated off the 10-day injured list. In 24 at-bats over 14 games, Hopkins slashed just .167/.200/.167 with no extra-base hits. He'll see more consistent playing time in the International League, and he could be back as a bench option at some point this summer for the Reds.
