Chris Fetter removes himself from Michigan coaching search, staying with Tigers

Boston — Tigers pitching coach Chris Fetter isn’t going anywhere.

Fetter, according to manager AJ Hinch, informed officials at the University of Michigan that he was taking his name out of consideration for their search for a head baseball coach.

“He was contacted by them and he has removed his name from consideration,” Hinch said Tuesday. “He loves Michigan and he loves what he’s doing here. He was very appreciative of that (being considered for the job) but he let me know and he let Al (Avila, general manager) know he was going to stay right here where he belongs.
