Despite complaints that this has been one of the slowest baseball offseasons in recent memory, the Detroit Tigers have been quite busy. Sure, they haven’t signed any marquee names, but neither have 28 other teams (we see you, Milwaukee). With the Tigers looking to improve roster flexibility as the team enters a rebuilding phase, general manager Al Avila and his staff have looked everywhere for under-the-radar talent to acquire.
And by everywhere, we mean everywhere. From the World Series champion Houston Astros to multiple independent leagues, the newest Tigers have come from all over.
