Report: Tigers' Jarrod Washburn would like to return to Mariners

The Detroit News

Free-agent left-hander Jarrod Washburn, not likely to re-sign with the Tigers, says a return to the Seattle Mariners would be among his top choices.

"Seattle definitely is toward the top of my list," Washburn told MLB.com. "I'll just have to see what happens when the free-agent season begins."

Washburn made eight starts for the Tigers in 2009 after being acquired from Seattle for Luke French and Mauricio Robles. Plagued by left knee trouble, Washburn was 1-3 for Detroit with a 7.33 ERA over 43 innings.
