Drew Anderson's return to the major leagues is making it increasingly difficult for the Detroit Tigers to let him go.

Anderson, who starred as a foreign pitcher in the KBO League before returning to MLB, has raised the possibility that he will remain in the big leagues next season. The Detroit-focused outlet Motor City Bengals recently highlighted his strong performances.

The report said Detroit is highly likely to exercise the $10 million club option in Anderson's contract for next year. His previous KBO stint, where he recorded 403 strikeouts, remains part of the case for keeping the pitcher who has successfully rebuilt his MLB career.
