The Rays are interested in Joe Jimenez, but trading him would be a bad idea

With the Detroit Tigers surely selling at this year’s trade deadline, opposing teams have started to show strong interest in the Tigers’ three biggest trade chips. Matthew Boyd and Shane Greene have drawn looks from multiple clubs so far, but Nicholas Castellanos’ market has been all but silent.

No, the Tigers’ third trade chip is Joe Jimenez, it seems. Jimenez has already drawn interest from the New York Mets, and is also an attractive trade target for the Tampa Bay Rays, according to Mark Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times.
