When the Detroit Tigers brought back KBO success story Drew Anderson on a one-year, $7 million deal with a hefty $10 million club option for 2027, president of baseball operations Scott Harris confirmed that he would be competing for a starting role. After all, it's a valid assumption for a team paying that kind of money to a guy who hasn't pitched in the Majors since 2021.

Except … that’s not exactly what Anderson is saying.

Anderson openly admitted that nothing has been locked down with AJ Hinch, Chris Fetter, or even Harris.
