DETROIT -- Chris Bosio didn't meet Joe Jimenez until spring training, but he had already been speaking to the Detroit Tigers young reliever for months.
Days after his hiring, the new Tigers pitching coach was already breaking down video and using FaceTime and text messages to groom Jimenez for a resurgence in 2018.
Jimenez's emergence as the Tigers' top reliever stands as one of Bosio's most vivid success stories during his brief eight-month tenure that ended on Wednesday.
