At his best, Jose Iglesias was an All-Star caliber shortstop for the Detroit Tigers. He proved as much in 2015, when he hit .314/.364/.373 in the first half and made the American League All-Star team, the lone appearance of his career. While his bat wasn’t so strong in subsequent seasons, he still provided plenty of value with his superlative defending, arguably second only to Andrelton Simmons among today’s crop of MLB shortstops.
Given the value Iglesias provided over the past few years, fellow Cuban shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria could be a decent fill-in for the Tigers.
