Detroit Tigers, Jose Urena optimistic that pitcher can return to form after shaky 2 years

The newest member of the Detroit Tigers is right-hander Jose Urena, who signed a one-year, $3.25 million contract last week.

The six-year veteran of the Miami Marlins is a bounce-back candidate, wasn't an expensive addition and should help the team through the expected inning limits for pitchers in 2021.

"A new experience for me," Urena said Tuesday. "But I'm happy for all the support, and I'm happy to be working for the Detroit Tigers. ... My target is to try to do everything I do (and) try to do it more quiet, more consistent, and go out there and have fun.
