Recent minor league moves from around the game, as chronicled by Baseball America’s Matt Eddy.
The Tigers signed righties Jake Brigham and outfielder Jim Adduci to minor league deals.
Detroit has been active in signing players from international leagues as minor league depth, including these two former big leaguers.
Brigham spent 2016 with Japan’s Rakuten Golden Eagles after nine pro seasons in North America, receiving his first taste of the majors in the form of 16 2/3 innings with the Braves in 2015.
Adduci, 31, played 11 seasons in the minors and parts of two seasons (148 PA with the Rangers in 2013-14) in the majors before spending the last two years with the Korean Baseball Organization’s Lotte Giants.

Detroit Tigers Reportedly Sign Michael Almanzar to Minor League Deal.

Zack Cox, who was a first-round pick of the Cardinals in 2010 and formerly rated as one of the game?s top third base prospects, signed with the organization.
Only 27, Cox hit .290 with 45 extra-base hits and an .800 OPS at Triple-A last season.
He could eventually transition into a role as Nick Castellanos? long-term backup.

Detroit also inked free agent infielder Gabriel Quintana to a minors deal.
The fellow third baseman, who can also man first base and left field, swatted 28 doubles and 20 home runs for San Diego?s Double-A affiliate in 2016.
Quintana, who is only 24, could eventually bring his power to Comerica Park as a potential bench bat.
