Valverde finalizes deal with Tigers: The Tigers have filled their hole at closer, agreeing to terms with Jose Valverde on a two-year contract with a club option for a third. The club announced the deal Tuesday but didn't disclose Valverde's salary. A person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press last week that Valverde and the Tigers had reached a preliminary agreement on a $14 million, two-year contract with a $9 million option for 2012.

Fantasy Analysis

Valverde saved 25 games in 29 chances for the Astros last year before filing for free agency. The 30-year-old right-hander was 4-2 with a 2.33 ERA. Valverde led the NL in saves with Arizona in 2007 and Houston in 2008. He probably would have had closer to 30-35 saves if he hadn't missed nearly two months with a calf injury. Now that he's back with a contender, he has the potential to perform like a top-10 Fantasy option, but his low tally last year should allow you to draft him outside the top 12.
