Detroit Tigers fans have seen the team remake the bench this season. Jarrod Saltalamacchia, Casey McGehee and Erick Aybar have all departed.
The veteran trio will likely be replaced by some combination of Alex Avila, Dixon Machado and Tyler Collins in 2017.
With Steven Moya, Mikie Mahtook, JaCoby Jones, John Hicks and Romine also in contention for bench spots, Detroit certainly isn’t short of options.
However, outside of Romine, the club is lacking a true utility ace.
