Detroit Tigers: Jordan Zimmermann is finally healthy, but does it matter?

Spring training is underway & Jordan Zimmermann has proclaimed himself fully healthy coming into camp for the first time since 2016 – but will it really matter?

Since signing his 5 year, $110M contract prior to the 2016 season, Jordan Zimmermann has essentially always been either hurt or working his way back from some kind of ailment, surgery, or series of injections. Despite his claims every spring that he was fully healthy and feeling great, he would always wind up hurt after a few starts and his season would be derailed. Will he fare any better in 2020, now that he has had a full off-season free from injury rehab?
