Could Joel Zumaya come back to haunt the Detroit Tigers? That day could be coming as Zumaya signed a one year deal with the Minnesota Twins. The Boston Red Sox and San Diego Padres were also teams named on his short list.According to MLB.com's Jason Beck the deal is for one year that could pay him anywhere from $800,000 to $1.7 million if he reaches incentives.Zumaya is coming off elbow surgery that cost him the 2011 season. This is a typical low risk Twins signing that always seems to pay off for them. I'm glad to see Zumaya come back and get another shot, but as a Tigers fan I hate to see him signing with a division rival. ----Written by Chris Edwards, Reporter (Archive/RSS)I love to talk sports.Just a fan that blogs about what goes on in the world of sports.
