Quiet Deadline For Tigers?

Is a deal involving Thames and Oliver Perez the most insane thing this season? The Mets had inquired about Thames during spring training and while they might want more than just him for Perez, they could certainly land him without giving up any prospects which probably isn't the case for the rest of the OF market. He's also one of the cheapest options.

R Weeks for J Rauch. Call up A Escobar to man SS and move JJ Hardy to 2b. Improve defense and bulpen.

Bowden gets another young athletic player.

Ballsy trade, you heard it hear first.

Here.

Oh well.

Great. That's the last thing I want to hear as a Tigers fan.
We badly need starting pitching.

I hear ya rd, the Tigers need ANY pitching help. I still think Miner will be the fifth-starter by the end of the year over Bonine. That's if the Tigers don't sign Garcia. But I'm not too keen on Dombrowski making any trades right now, since the only thing he's been able to do is get people who were at one point marlins.

But none of this matters if we can't beat divisional opponents anyway. I wish the Tigers would take SOME pride in their game. sheesh. You think they'd be embarassed by now...

Given that the Tigers don't have much in their farm system I think a trade for Wolf could work out for them. He'd be okay in that park, behind that offense (if they ever get consistent) and wouldn't cost them too much. I can't see Maddux going there. Burnett isn't likely either, I don't think the Tigers have the prospects that Toronto would probably want and I can't see Detroit adding that much payroll anyway, at least not with the unknowns of his contract. Wolf is a good target.
