Tigers sign Robertson to three-year deal
Tom Gage / The Detroit News
The Tigers' nucleus of players signed to multi-year contacts got larger Wednesday when starting pitcher Nate Robertson agreed to a three-year deal.
Financial terms of the contract were not disclosed. Robertson is coming off a 9-13 season in which he posted a 4.76 earned-run average.
"We are excited to sign Nate to a long-term contract and we look forward to him being part of our rotation for years to come," Tigers general manager David Dombrowski said.
The Tigers have four starting pitchers under contract through the 2010 season -- Jeremy Bonderman, Justin Verlander, Dontrelle Willis and Robertson.
