Tigers as Sellers

[Mike A. S.]

Even being a Tigers fan, I want them to be sellers this year to rebuild their farm system and get younger, while hopefully shedding payroll as well. That being said, who are the realistic candidates to be dealt, should they become sellers? JD Martinez is obvious and maybe Justin Wilson, but who else?

They are going to have to eat a lot of money to be able to move Miggy or Mr. Kate Upton. And probably would need it some of Victor's 2018 salary too.

Detroit just waited to long to pull the trigger. I am not sure how they correct the ship any time soon.

Avila & JD seem likely the easiest to move. There are always teams in the race who need help behind the plate.

I'll take JD and Justin Wilson

Thank you

 

[molsaniceman]

ill take casty but doubt they trade him

 

[redseat]

I voted for all of them... Now do I think teams will actually try to get them? Probably not

 

[Fountain City Blues]

The awkward truth is the Tigers are simultaneously 2 games behind in the WC, and 4 behind a team with a -24 RD and a whole lot of nothing in their rotation as far as the division goes. They are in purgatory like most of the AL right now.

 

[tducey]

Verlander and Jd.

Where do you put JD? The Yankees have a tight outfield ...

I would sell as much as you can. Quite a few guys who could get you a nice haul.

Honestly I'd almost rather see JD move to DH or 1B, but maybe that's just me.

Literally every team in the AL is still in the hunt for at least a WC spot.

Even the A's, who have the worst record in the AL are only like 4.5 games out of the second WC spot.

Meanwhile, in the NL it appears that the only playoff spot in question is the NL Central champ.

Lots of things can change, but it looks like the Nats have the NL East tied up and the NL West will get 3 playoff teams.

You can have him.

 

[WahooSam]

Jordan Zimmerman is available as well if anybody wants him.

I'd love it if they did.

He has to be the worst everyday infielder in baseball.

He never had any range, but he used to reliably field the balls hit right to him, now he can't even do that.

He'll be a liability wherever he ends up.

Hard time believing he can play first. And we know he's not an outfielder.

Remind BroncoDave how well Sanchez pitched the other night while you're at it.

Even if he could handle 1st defensively, his bat doesn't play there.
