With the non-waiver trade deadline just eight days away, rumors are starting to fly faster than ever. The Tigers have been shopping several players, most aggressively starters Mike Fiers and Francisco Liriano. The former has acquitted himself well lately, posting a 3.00 ERA since May 8. His latest audition went perfectly; he tossed 6 1⁄3 scoreless innings against the Boston Red Sox, one of the teams reportedly interested in his services. Dave Dombrowski was in attendance, chatting with Tigers general manager Al Avila throughout the game.
Liriano, on the other hand, might be tougher to move.
