It sure doesn’t seem like it, but we are nearing the halfway point of the MLB regular season. The Detroit Tigers will play their 80th game of the year on Tuesday, and we are less than a week away from the month of July. The halfway point of the season (or thereabouts) brings the MLB All-Star Game, and a timely point to assess how a team is doing. It also brings a deluge of trade rumors prior to the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline.
Teams typically don’t get too deep into trade talks until after the All-Star break, but there have been a few rumors cropping up already.
