Tigers signed LHP Wil Ledezma to a minor league contract. | ||||||
It's a return to the Tigers organization for the 33-year-old southpaw who caught on as a Rule-5 draftee in 2003. He spent the 2013 season as a reliever for Chiba Lotte in Japan's Pacific League where he posted a 3.23 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 22/13 K/BB ratio over 30 2/3 innings. He's nothing more than organizational depth at the moment. | ||||||

Dodgers signed LHP Wil Ledezma to a minor league contract. | ||||||
The signing was reported last month but just recently became official. Ledezma gave up 10 runs over six innings this season for the Blue Jays but had a lot more success at Triple-A, boasting a 64/19 K/BB ratio over 48 innings. He'll get a spring training invite but will surely be at Triple-A to start the season. | ||||||

The deal isn't official yet, but it appears to just be a matter of dotting the i's and crossing the t's at this point. Ledezma gave up 10 runs over six innings this season for the Blue Jays but had a lot more success at Triple-A, boasting a 64/19 K/BB ratio over 48 innings. He'll likely compete for a bullpen spot in spring training. | ||||||

Ledezma was just claimed off waivers from the Pirates last week. He'll still receive an invite to spring training as a non-roster invitee. The southpaw posted a 6.86 ERA over 27 relief appearances with the Pirates last season, but had impressive numbers with Triple-A Indianapolis. | ||||||

It's odd that the Pirates didn't just non-tender him in the first place last month. Ledezma was cleared to create a spot on the 40-man roster for Aaron Thompson, who was claimed off waivers from the Nationals. The southpaw posted a 6.86 ERA and 22/6 K/BB ratio over 19 2/3 innings this past season. | ||||||

No word yet on how much Ledezma will make on the deal. He was inked to a minor league contract this offseason and threw up some really good numbers at the Triple-A level. The Bucs are hoping that he will continue to make progress and eventually become a reliable middle reliever. | ||||||
