Justin Wilson and Alex Avila traded to the Cubs last night... for prospects, Jeimer Candelario, Isaac Paredes.
I'm not sure what to think... JD Martinez has done nothing but hit home runs since they moved him to Arizona... then they come out and say their not moving JV, so if that's the case, why move JWill? I don't understand Al Avila... I don't understand what he's trying to do. I think they just worry about the money and gave up. When they started all this stuff, they were only 5.5 games out... that's not the time to throw in the towel, in my opinion.

Typically I wouldn't like the move. However being the best RP on the Tigers staff does not mean as much as it once did.

https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/...edly-place-justin-verlander-on-trade-waivers/ MLB trade rumors: Tigers reportedly place Justin Verlander on trade waivers That does not mean a trade will happen, however The 2017 trade deadline has passed, though that does not mean teams can no longer make trades. They can! They just have to go through the hassle of the trade waiver process first. A quick primer on trade waivers: A player claimed on trade waivers can only be traded to the team that claimed him. A player who goes unclaimed on trade waivers can be traded anywhere. Trade waivers are completely revocable, so if a player gets claimed and his team wants to keep him, they can pull him back. They could also let him (and his contract) go to the claiming team for nothing, just like a straight waiver claim. Because trade waivers are no risk -- they're a way to gauge the market, basically -- just about every player in baseball will wind up on trade waivers at some point after the deadline. Even megastars like Mike Trout and Bryce Harper. On Wednesday, the Tigers reportedly placed Justin Verlander on waivers: Verlander has $56 million left on his contract after this season, so no team is going to claim him on trade waivers. Most players go unclaimed, especially the guys with big contracts. Also, Verlander has a full no-trade clause, so he's in complete control of his future. Even if the Tigers find a deal that works, they still need his stamp of approval. Prior to the trade deadline Verlander's name popped up in plenty of rumors, most involving the Brewers or Cubs. It stands to reason that once he clears trade waivers, the Tigers will again make Verlander available and see whether a contender is willing to meet their asking price. Major August trades are rare, so in all likelihood the Tigers will keep Verlander through the end of the season, then try to move him over the winter.
