Detroit Tigers general manager Al Avila couldn't get the trade package he desired for closer Gregory Soto at Tuesday's deadline.
Those opposing teams may feel a little better now about not relinquishing key pieces for Soto, an All-Star the past two seasons.
Soto entered a scoreless game Sunday in the ninth inning, faced seven batters and retired two, with three consecutive walks bringing in the first two runs of the game, as the Tigers melted down in the ninth inning of a 7-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays at Comerica Park.
