Langley’s Jordan Lennerton is sticking with the Detroit Tigers organization.
The free agent baseball player announced via Twitter that he has re-signed with the Tigers, the team which drafted him in the 33rd round of the 2008 Major League Baseball draft.
Lennerton, a first baseman, has spent the past two seasons with the Triple-A Toledo Mud Hens, Detroit’s top affiliate. He hit .249 with 10 home runs and 53 RBIs last season for Toledo in the International League. He has also won a Gold Glove the past two seasons for his defensive prowess.
A product of the Langley Blaze Premier program and graduate with Brookswood Secondary, Lennerton, who turns 29 next month, is currently playing winter ball in Puerto Rico.
