MINNEAPOLIS — As the winds of change blow through major league baseball before the upcoming trade deadline, the Detroit Tigers and Minnesota Twins are becoming very active participants.
The two teams who start a weekend series in Minnesota on Friday might look different before the end of the weekend.
Detroit and Minnesota are very familiar with each other, but the Tigers made themselves known as sellers this week when they traded slugging outfielder J.D. Martinez to the Arizona Diamondbacks.
“We’re still in conversation with other clubs on several players,” Detroit general manager Al Avila told MLB.
