What price leadership? In letting Wilson and McCann go, Tigers say $6 million is too much

Detroit — Alex Wilson won’t be out of work for long. A couple of teams have already reached out to him, less than 24 hours after news broke that the Tigers did not tender him a contract for 2019.

“I think we will find a landing spot,” Wilson said Saturday in a phone conversation. “Just kind of hoping I can find a good fit. I want to win. I’m not getting any younger, so if I have an opportunity to play with a contender, that would be huge for me.”

Wilson, who turned 32 in November, was still shaken by the Tigers decision to let him walk.
