Dave Dombrowski's season-end press conference highlights

On Tuesday afternoon, Tigers' GM Dave Dombrowski met with the press to talk about the end of the 2014 season and what the future might look like in 2015. We'll have more in-depth coverage here later, but for now, these are some of the highlights:

DD on Ausmus: "He's our manager. He's back. I think it's a situation he did a fine job with us."

DD on Fister trade: "No. I don't regret the deal. ... Our starting pitching was not our downfall this year, particularly early in the year."

DD expects Nathan to start season as closer but then he has to prove he can be the closer to remain as closer

Dombrowski said he's not in a position to declare whether #Tigers will pick up Joakim Soria's club option or Alex Avila's club option.

#Tigers GM Dave Dombrowski, as expected, said he'd "love" to re-sign Victor Martinez. But, again, no decisions have been made.
