The Detroit Tigers have signed Pedro Martinez...

Jr.

The 17-year-old son of the Red Sox Hall of Fame pitcher is an infielder from the Dominican Republic, who signed with Detroit, Baseball America reported.

At 6-2, 190 pounds, he's a little bigger than his father and loves to hit more than pitch.

"I don't really like pitching. I've been keeping up with the bat so far. I don't feel any need to change," he told MLB.com last year after playing for the D.R. in the RBI World Series.
