MLB pitcher Anibal Sanchez is parting with his Birmingham, MI, home for almost $2 million. The Venezuelan-born player is saying adios to the Detroit Tigers after six seasons in the Motor City.

The Tigers confirmed that they are declining Sanchez’s $16 million contract option for 2018. But don’t weep for the veteran hurler. The deal included a $5 million buyout, and he’ll likely be scooped up by another MLB team this winter.

The right-hander’s departure from Detroit isn’t a huge surprise, as he’s struggled for the past three seasons and bottomed out with a subpar season in 2017.

But despite his struggles on the mound, his Michigan spread is a home run.

The 5,253-square-foot home has five bedrooms, six bathrooms, and two half-baths. Located in a “highly sought-after” neighborhood, it’s close to downtown Birmingham’s shops and restaurants, and a short commute to Comerica Park.

Built in 2005, the Tudor features a two-story foyer, chef’s kitchen, family room, and master suite with two fireplaces, master bath, and round dressing room in a turret.

The first floor includes a den with wet bar and media room filled with Sanchez memorabilia.

“The crown jewel of the lower level is the incredible wine cellar,” says listing agent Maureen Francis of Coldwell Banker Weir Manuel. “It’s the perfect place for a serious wine aficionado to store and enjoy their collection.”

The lower level also features a full bath and potential guest room, workout space, and lounge.

The yard is landscaped, and the home is equipped with a “state-of-the-art” security system.

“The quality could not be replicated at this price, and the original owners spent more than our current list price to build this home,” Francis notes.

Sanchez has 90 wins, 1,414 strikeouts, and a career ERA of 4.09.
