 DETROIT (AP) - Alan Trammell is out and Jim Leyland might be in as manager of the Detroit Tigers. Trammell was fired Monday after three seasons in which he failed to turn around a franchise without a winning record since 1993.
"You will not find a more dedicated, hardworking and respected individual that cares more about the Tigers and his coaching staff," Tigers president Dave Dombrowski said. "However, for the Tigers to reach the next level, I feel it is appropriate to make a change at this time."
Dombrowski said he informed Trammell of his firing Monday morning.
