Tigers released RHP Robbie Weinhardt. |
The 27-year-old right-hander went 3-0 with a 2.83 ERA in 26 appearances with Triple-A Toledo this past season, including a 0.47 ERA in nine outings after the All-Star break. A former respected relief prospect, Weinhardt was about to hit the open market as a six-year minor league free agent. He was flogged to the tune of a 6.39 ERA in 30 career MLB appearances. A change of scenery might do the northpaw well. |

Robbie Weinhardt is expected to get a crack at an Opening Day bullpen spot this spring. |
Weinhardt posted a gorgeous 1.62 ERA and 0.96 WHIP across 33-plus innings at Triple-A Toledo last season and has done all the proving he needs to do in the minor leagues. Jose Valverde, Joaquin Benoit, Joel Zumaya, Ryan Perry, Daniel Schlereth and Brad Thomas are near locks for bullpen jobs this year with Detroit. Maybe Weinhardt can squeeze in behind them. |
