add the tigers to a list that include every team that are buyers at the deadline.

I thought Bruce Chen was a starter. He almost had a perfect game against the Angels a few days ago. Aardsma, League, and Soria would all be great fits in the Tigers bullpen. The Tigers should want no part of Farnsworth for how bad he was for them a year ago.

I was at the game. The Tigers should be wary. Chen was hit hard at least half a dozen times. The Royal defense was top notch and made a bunch of diving plays.

There is no way that the Royals trade Soria to within the division where they have to see him a ton every year.
Onewildman
Go figure the Tigers are in the market for power arms?
NewtofKC
For the Royals being as big a Losers everyone makes them out to be they sure like our players. So Back-off, we are starting to like this winning stuff!
tomr
The Royals are definitely better than they get credit for. I was at 2 of the 3 games over the weekend (I’m an Angel fan) and they were superb defensively. David DeJesus is a star in the making.
rzepczynski
A star in the making? you must be confusing him with a prospect as opposed to the 7and change OPS light hitting corner outfielder that he is
Yankees420
But he saw him play in 2 whole games….

What about Milwaukee? Todd Coffey or Carlos Villanueva? Recently heard they may be available…
tersaw1
Unfortunately, Detroit teams have now banned getting any players named Villanueva from the city of Milwaukee…sorry
Sniderlover
Downs, Frasor, Gregg?
verlander
Oh for the love of Paws, not Kyle Farnsworth. We’ve ridden that amusement park ride twice already. No need to get on it a third time.
League, Aardsma and Soria, however, are intriguing.
tigers22
They better not be interested in Farnsworth. I think that was purely speculation… they’ve learned their lesson with that guy. I personally think Soria would take too much to acquire in a deal, but I think League and Aardsma are very intriguing
verlander
I hope you’re right (and I think you are). I just can’t imagine they’d seriously consider Farnsworth after the disaster he was in ’08.
Tacho Bill
How about Octavio Dotel?
Ross Smith
What about any of the Blue Jays Relievers? Scott Downs has been good this year
TheBunk
Scott Downs is good every year
wes W
as a m’s fan, i would love to give up both Aardsma and League for some lower-level prospects. yesterday, our bullpen gave up 4 runs in 3ip while felix went 7ip and gave up just 2. our bullpen is a mess and we need to get a REAL closer. (probably happen in offseason)
dorisdanglehoff
i’ve been a die hard tigers fan for a long time. i’ve stuck with them through stupid decision after stupid decision. but if they bring farnsworth back i might just throw in the towel. (if dombrowski brings renteria back, i’ll really lose it. the fact that omar infante is an all-star, even a fake one, makes that trade look even worse than it did before. if that’s possible.)
Baseballislife21
How about this trade?
Tigers get
Dan Haren
Stephen Drew
D backs reliever
D backs get
Jacob Turner
Rick Porcello
Heard Tigers were interested in Drew and also need starting pitching and obivously a reliever. D backs need pitching prospects.
What do you guuys think?
Civilization
No. MAYBE we deal someone like a Crosby or a Turner… But the return would have to be solid and no way does both players get thrown in a deal. Our farm system is a depleted as it is…
LongGone6
never ever would they give up porcello AND turner. most likely they’d give up something like Oliver/Sborz and Larish for Drew.
haren has too many injuries and hasnt yet proven he’s back to anywhere near his form. Tigers went through trading for mediocre pitcher in 2nd half last year. no need to repeat
tigers22
WHAT
verlander
If the Tigers deal with Arizona, I can’t imagine both Turner AND Porcello going to the D’backs. Maybe Porcello or Turner/Oliver + other pieces, but not both.
tersaw1
Turner and Porcello…never happen, I dont think either of them are up for tradebait, maybe Oliver and some lesser pieces like Ramirez or Sborz
Ronald H
What we need more is a shortstop and catcher who can hit!
crashcameron
Alan Trammell and Lance Parrish available?
verlander
I think they’ll stick with Avila as the main guy and look at upgrading SS.
stltiger69
What about Brendan Lyon or a low trade cost options like Joel Hanrahan from Pittsburgh?
John
There out of there minds to even consider Farnsworth(less)!
