Damon 'Leaning Toward' Staying In Detroit


Johnny Damon told reporters after Monday night's game that he's leaning toward staying with the Tigers.

"My gut and everything else tells me Detroit's the place for me," Damon told reporters (via MLB.com's Jason Beck's Twitter ).

Now, Damon has said recently he likes the Tigers and would prefer to stay with the team. However, he said he could return to Detroit as a free agent even if he were traded.

"I could still come back here next season," Damon told the Detroit News on Friday.
