The Detroit Tigers and the Los Angeles Dodgers had a deal in place that would've sent Eduardo Rodriguez to the West Coast, but the left-handed starter reportedly turned down the deal, according to ESPN's Jeff Passan.
Rodriguez has a unique contract that has a 10-team no-trade clause, which the Dodgers are included in, and Rodriguez decided to exercise his option, meaning the deal is now dead, Passan reports.
The lefty veteran is having arguably the best year of his career, posting a 2.95 ERA and a 6-5 record in 15 starts, only being interrupted by a finger injury in May that sidelined him for multiple weeks.
