The Tigers announced that left-hander Robbie Ross, right-hander Andrew Moore, first baseman Aderlin Rodriguez and infielder Yariel Gonzalez have all been signed to minor league deals.
Ross is the most familiar name of the group, posting a 3.83 ERA over 321 2/3 innings as a workhorse member of the Rangers and Red Sox bullpens from 2012-16 (also starting 12 games with Texas in 2014). After an injury-riddled 2017, however, Ross hasn?t returned to the majors, pitching in the White Sox farm system and then independent ball.
Moore is the only other member of the quartet with MLB experience, as he tossed 63 2/3 innings for the Mariners (posting a 5.51 ERA) over parts of the 2017 and 2019 seasons.

Former Nationals farmhand Drew Ward has signed a minor league deal with the Tigers. The 26-year-old was a third round pick by the Nats back in 2013.
He posted a 105 wRC+ in Triple-A and 139 wRC+ in Double-A during the 2019 season for the Nats.
He consistently posted solid offensive numbers on his march through the Nats? system, though his walk rate fell below average in 2019 as his strikeout rate shot up close to an unsightly 40 percent.
The lefty bat can play both infield corners and serve as depth in that regard for the Tigers.
It should be noted that while Ward?s walk rate and strikeout rate worsened in 2019, Ward?s isolated power numbers proved the best of his young career.
If an approach shift resulted in selling out for power more often than not, Ward at least registered a .232 ISO across 205 plate appearances in Double-A and .270 ISO in 117 Triple-A plate appearances.
