Quick hit: Justin Wilson traded to the Tigers

Looks like the Yankees made another move early this evening, trading reliever Justin Wilson to the Detroit Tigers for two prospects.

Wilson, who came over to the Yankees from the Pirates in a swap involving Francisco Cervelli in November 2014, pitched well for the club in 2015. He had a 3.10 ERA (2.69 FIP) in 61 innings of work with a 5-0 record in 74 games. His HR/9 was 0.44, his K/9 was 9.74, his ground ball rate was 43.8% and he had a WAR of 1.5

We’ll update when we get more info about the return for Wilson.
