trade

Sources say tongues have been waggin' for a while, but the Lions say no they haven't.

Forget about all the words people say about the deal it simply comes down to the Chinese government agreeing to:

As expected, the Detroit Tigers have traded left fielder Yoenis Cespedes.  The soon-to-be-free-agent, acquired last December in a trade that sent starting pitcher Rick Porcello to Boston, was traded to the Mets just before the 4 p.m. trade deadline.

Tigers GM Dave Dombrowski said the team will look to “reboot” for next season by  trading their soon-to-be free agents, and that’s what he did Thursday.

For the first time since 2005, the Tigers will be sellers heading into the trade deadline.
