Tigers: OF Thames, C Treanor to become free agents
DETROIT (AP) The Detroit Tigers have removed outfielder Marcus Thames and catcher Matt Treanor from the roster, clearing the way for both players to become free agents.
Thames, a Tiger since 2004, hit .252 last season with 13 homers and 36 RBIs in 87 games. Treanor played in four games before undergoing surgery on his right hip April 30.
The Tigers also said Friday that infielder Michael Hollimon's contract has been outrighted to Triple-A Toledo. The club purchased the contract of right-handed pitcher Jay Sborz from the Mud Hens and reinstated right-hander Joel Zumaya and infielder Jeff Larish from the 60-day disabled list.
