Former Toronto Blue Jays closer Casey Janssen is a free agent. Would he help the Tigers in 2016?
It's no secret that the Detroit Tigers are looking to upgrade their bullpen this offseason, and that would include finding a closer, a set up man, and maybe (hopefully) more. One problem: there are no current closers available on the free agent market -- although Joakim Soria held down the ninth inning in Detroit for the better part of 2015 -- but there are a few pitchers with recent ninth inning experience.
One of the first moves of the offseason came when the Washington Nationals declined their half of a $7 million mutual contract option on reliever Casey Janssen.
