Kennedy, 25, was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Monday after going 2-for-10 with one homer and four RBIs in six games with the team.
He also batted .234 with three homers and 14 RBIs in 39 games with Triple-A Toledo. The versatile Kennedy has made appearances at second base (22), third base (18), first base (one) and shortstop (one) for the Mud Hens.
