Detroit Tigers

The Tigers signed Kenny Serwa to a minor league contract.

Fantasy Impact: Serwa pitched in the independent American Association last season. He is known for his knuckleball, which not many pitchers in the MLB throw these days. He'll compete for a spot on the Tigers Opening Day roster.

The Tigers re-signed Tomas Nido to a minor league contract.

Fantasy Impact: The deal also includes an invite to spring training. Nido spent last season with both the Cubs and Tigers. He'll add depth behind the plate for Detroit.

The Tigers and Beau Brieske avoided arbitration, agreeing to a one-year, $1.025 million contract.

Fantasy Impact: Brieske posted a 3.59 ERA across 67 2/3 innings last season. He should continue to hold a high-leverage role in the Tigers bullpen.

The Tigers and Casey Mize avoided arbitration, agreeing to a one-year, $2.34 million contract.

Fantasy Impact: Mize had his team option declined after last season. He struggled last year, posting a 4.49 ERA across 102 1/3 innings. He remains nothing more than a late-round flier for fantasy managers.
