Zoom is my favorite Tiger. Glad to see he got extended a bit. Dombrowski is really doing an awesome job with this team. That deal to tie up Bonderman for an extra couple of years was outstanding.
Chad Durbin, Zach Miner, Jordan Tata, Wilfredo Ledezma, infielders Tony Giarratano, Chris Shelton and outfielders Brent Clevlen and Marcus Thames also agreed to terms with the Tigers. Additionally, Detroit renewed the contract of pitcher Jason Grilli.
All these guys are great to keep around as well. Ledezma is looking at either a starting job or at the very least a spot starter job. He's looked good early on this year and has the talent to start. His likely role will be a long reliever in the middle innings, but he adds great depth in case of an injury. Miner did as well last year when Maroth went down for the season. I think he won like his first 8 starts which is amazing. Remember that Miner came over in that deal that sent Farnsworth to Atlanta a couple years back. Farnz didn't want to re-sign during the season and got way too much anyways. Dombrowski pulled the trigger and got us Miner who was a big part of the success we had last year.
In dombrowski we trust.
