Kenley Jansen didn’t just sign with the Detroit Tigers this offseason — he testified.
When asked why he chose to sign in Detroit, Jansen didn't just give generic free-agent lip service. He specifically mentioned the Tigers' "winning culture" and wanting to be "part of a great thing."
This was a veteran closer with a Hall-of-Fame résumé talking about culture, belief, momentum, and a team that feels like it’s on the verge of something real. He talked about watching the Tigers. He talked about the playoffs. He talked about conversations with the coaching staff.
