Jonathan Schoop - Plans to return to Detroit in '23 Schoop doesn't intend to exercise the opt-out clause in his contract ahead of next week's deadline and plans to remain with the Tigers in 2023, Evan Petzold of The Detroit Free Pre...
Impact Schoop inked a two-year, $15 million contract extension with the Tigers last August, so he would be forgoing a $7.5 million salary for 2023 if he chose to opt out of his contract. After submitting a career-worst .561 OPS over 510 plate appearances in 2022, the 31-year-old was unlikely to approach that $7.5 million salary figure if he chose to become a free agent, so his decision to stick around in Detroit comes as little surprise. Coming off a wretched season, Schoop will likely have to compete for a regular role during spring training. Even if he emerges from camp as the victor in a job battle, Schoop probably won't have a long leash on an everyday gig.

Dillon Dingler - Recovering from knee injury Dingler will miss the remainder of the Arizona Fall League after tests on his sore knee returned negative Sunday, Emily Waldon of Baseball America reports.

The 24-year-old reported to Arizona for more work after slashing .238/.333/.419 with 39 extra-base hits across 447 plate appearances for Double-A Erie.

Miguel Del Pozo - Inks minor-league deal Del Pozo signed a minor-league deal with the Tigers on Thursday.
Impact Del Pozo spent the entirety of 2022 with the Tigers organization in Triple-A Toledo, where he put up a 3.88 ERA and 11.2 K/9 over 53.1 innings out of the bullpen. His last major-league appearance came in 2021 but considering his impressive Triple-A resume over the last two seasons (3.44 ERA, 1.07 WHIP), there's a case for Del Pozo to appear in the big leagues at some point in 2023.
