A day after reaching an agreement with super utility man, Andrew Romine, the Detroit Tigers today reach an agreement with four others: Bruce Rondon, Alex Wilson, Jose Iglesias, and Justin Wilson.
The Tigers have avoided an arbitration hearing with righty reliever Bruce Rondon, settling at $850,000 for 2017, I'm told.

The predicted salaries were pretty spot on for these players and with these deals getting done, the Tigers have locked up now five of their six arbitration-eligible players. Still left, Nick Castellanos, who may be in for a hefty pay raise.
