Expect the Tigers to hone in on more cost-effective options in their search for an additional starter and/or bullpen arm.

Strang's take: Detroit Tigers team owner Mike Ilitch made headlines Monday during RHP Jordan Zimmermann's introductory press conference, claiming he had no problem spending money in pursuit of a World Series title.
