The Tigers GM Dave Dombrowski told WEEI Boston,
“Jose’s been tremendous for us. He really changes our ball club, as you know, over here. He’s an outstanding defensive shortstop. He really changes the middle of the diamond. We really like what he brings for us. He’s going to be our shortstop for years to come.”
