Kerry Carpenter hit a two-run homer and drove in three runs, Chris Paddack threw six solid innings in his Detroit debut and the Tigers beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 7-2 on Wednesday.

Atlanta traded Montero to Detroit on Wednesday in exchange for infielder Jim Jarvis. Montero will join his third team of the season after logging a 5.40 ERA and 1.38 WHIP across 38.1 innings between Atlanta and Houston.

Kreider did not play in Monday’s game and was essentially serving as a roster placeholder until newly acquired right-handed pitcher Chris Paddack could arrive in Detroit and join the team.
