Tigers' Francisco Rodriguez: Wants to keep playing past 2017

Rodriguez intends on signing a new contract after his current deal ends at the end of the season, The Detroit News reports.

Analysis:

Rodriguez, who turned 35 last month, is the active saves leader with 430, and he led Detroit with 44 last season. He's still pitching well, and it appears he wants to continue beyond this season, whether with the Tigers or another team.
