DETROIT -- The American League leaderboard for pitching appearances has two Detroit relievers at the top. But while the Tigers have been trying to get Daniel Stumpf on track by facing lefties as the lone southpaw in their bullpen, they've found their setup man in Joe Jimenez, and are trusting him with eighth-inning leads.
Not only has Jimenez handled the workload well so far, he thinks he could add to it, if the Tigers needed him.
"I would say if they throw me more, that's good for me, because I get used to it," Jimenez said.
