Detroit Tigers closer Francisco Rodriguez enjoyed a fine debut season with the Tigers.
Brought in from the Milwaukee Brewers via trade to solidify the back end of the bullpen, Rodriguez did just. Over 58.1 innings pitched, the closer notched 44 saves while posting a 3.24 ERA.
The longtime Angel also posted solid numbers across the board in other run-prevention categories with a 3.84 xFIP, a 3.83 FIP and a 3.66 SIERA.
In addition to keeping runs off the board, Rodriguez put up a 12.1% swinging strike percentage and a 30% O-Swing percentage.
With general manager Al Avila looking to make Detroit a younger squad that is more fiscally efficient, Rodriguez may move to another organization.
