The Tigers recalled Jung from Triple-A Toledo on Monday.
He's netting the roster spot vacated by the injured Colt Keith (thumb). Jung had a cup of coffee with the Tigers earlier this season but has spent essentially the entire year at Toledo, slashing .227/.344/.421 with 22 home runs over 133 contests. He is not guaranteed regular playing time in the final week.

The Tigers will recall Jung from Triple-A Toledo prior to Monday's game versus the Nationals, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Jung has spent almost all of the 2026 campaign at Toledo, slashing .227/.344/.421 with 22 home runs over 133 contests. The 25-year-old can handle first base, second base and third base, but his playing time in the final week of the regular season will not be assured.

The Tigers optioned Jung to Triple-A Toledo on Friday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
Jung was recalled from Triple-A on Wednesday but will head back to the minors after going 0-for-2 during his lone appearance against the Red Sox. Zack Short re-signed with Detroit on an MLB contract Friday and will take Jung's place on the active roster.

The Tigers recalled Jung from Triple-A Toledo on Wednesday. He'll start at designated hitter and bat ninth in the Tigers' series finale against the Red Sox.
Detroit had optioned Jung to Triple-A on Sunday, but he'll rejoin the big club just three days later after Gleyber Torres (oblique) was placed on the 10-day injured list. Capable of playing first base, second base and third base, Jung will shore up the Tigers' infield depth but isn't expected to be in line for steady at-bats during his upcoming stint in the majors.

The Tigers optioned Jung to Triple-A Toledo on Sunday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Jung was called up from Toledo on Wednesday and will return there after going 1-for-4 with two walks and a run in two big-league contests. Zack Short is taking his spot on the major-league roster.

The Tigers recalled Jung from Triple-A Toledo on Wednesday. He'll start at designated hitter and bat ninth in Detroit's matchup with Atlanta.
Though he'll be making his 2026 debut for Detroit in a non-defensive role, Jung will be an option for the Tigers at three infield spots (first base, second base and third base) while he's up with the big club. With Javier Baez (ankle) landing on the injured list in a corresponding move, the Tigers have an opening the everyday lineup, but it's not clear if Jung will be in line for regular starts or if Detroit will lean on a committee of players to replace Baez. Jung has struggled in his limited opportunities at the big-league level over the previous two seasons and got off to a so-so start to the campaign at Toledo, producing a .222/.358/.364 slash line and 103 wRC+ while striking out at 22.8 percent clip over 123 plate appearances.
