Chicago – It’s fluid, of course. Until the Aug. 1 trade deadline passes, anything can happen.
Or, as is most likely the case for the Tigers, nothing can happen.
General manager Al Avila made it clear before the game Saturday that all signs are pointing to the Tigers standing pat at the deadline.
“I'm not going to be real sexy at the trade deadline,” he said. “Obviously you guys want to write something sexy and something really exciting. You're looking for a big trade. But I am not anticipating that this year.”
He’s been consistent on that point all season.
