Ben Verlander and Torii Hunter Jr have both signed on to the Tigers development program.

I knew Torii Hunter had one son attending Notre Dame University (I think on a football scholarship?). Is Torii Hunter Jr the same son, or another one? Still can't believe Torii has a college-age son!

"Tigers development program"... what specifically is that? Does that mean we won't be seeing Ben Verlander on the Connecticut Tigers next season?

Although I'm a Red Sox fan, I really will miss seeing Jim Leyland in that Detroit dugout. Just won't be the same...

Torii Hunter Jr does have a football scholarship but recently broke his leg. Torii Hunter Sr is 38 years old so an 18 or 19 year old son isn’t out of the question.

He and Ben Verlander have both signed on to play double and triple A ball in the Tigers organization after college.
