Manuel Margot Signed By The Detroit Tigers
5 days agoThe Detroit Tigers signed outfielder Manuel Margot, the 30-year-old journeyman from the Dominican Republic, after the Milwaukee Brewers released him on Saturday. Margot is a career .254 hitter and will now play for his fifth MLB team since being called to the big leagues in 2016. Margot provides a safety net and consistent floor for Detroit and will join outfielders Riley Greene, Kerry Carpenter, Wenceel Perez, and Parker Meadows (arm). Meadows was recently shut down from throwing and will miss some time, so the Tigers' signing of Margot was likely a proactive approach to add some outfield depth. For fantasy purposes, Margot can be left on the waiver wire and picked up if he flashes a hot stretch where he can help fantasy managers in points leagues if they deal with some injuries to their outfield.
