Miguel Cabrera joins Tigers' trade talksThe Detroit news is reporting Opening bids for Curtis Granderson and Edwin Jackson have plainly been underwhelming, or Dave Dombrowski, the Tigers president and general manager known for a fast trigger-finger, would by now have dealt at least one of two star players on the block during what could be a volatile offseason for the Tigers. Tigers could still add hittermlb.com is reporting The fact that the Tigers didn't have to give up a lot for Jarrod Washburn, and didn't have to give up highly-rated prospects, means they're still talking with teams about beefing up their offense before today's nonwaiver trade deadline. Tigers trying to land M's WashburnFox Sports is reporting The Tigers have a wide range of needs and have spoken with the Mariners about left-hander Jarrod Washburn. As of Thursday night, though, they weren't optimistic about their chances of making a big trade, according to one major-league source familiar with their conversations. Tigers looking for a Catcher and RelieverMlb.com is reporting that the Tigers have shown interest in adding a backup catcher and another reliever for the stretch run, adding to the shopping list for Detroit heading towards Friday's nonwaiver trade deadlines.

Will injuries force the Tigers to go after a "power bat"Rob Neyer of ESPN.com is reporting thatYesterday I ran across this discussion of players who will most help their teams when they come back from injuries. Well, Carlos Guillen is sort of the opposite; he sort of falls under the heading, "Players who their clubs will least miss if they don't come back" (Eric Chavez is among the others in that group). Tigers concerned about young gunsThe chicagotribune.com is reporting that the Detroit Tigers have concerns about putting too much responsibility on the young pitchers. Rick Porcello and Ryan Perry are struggling with big league hitting. The Detroit Tigers might need to add a Veteran to take some of the pressure off Porcello and Perry.
