Lakeland, Fla. — Don’t get it twisted. Cameron Maybin is thrilled to be back for a third stint with the Tigers.
“That’s something I thought about: Who’s ever done that?” he said Sunday, a day ahead of the team’s first full-squad workout on Monday. “Has anybody ever had three? That means a lot to me. … I take it as a compliment that they want me back for a third time.”
That aside, though, he still has a bad taste in his mouth over his free-agent experience this winter.
