The Detroit Tigers have traded prospect Nick Quintana to the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for veteran catcher Tucker Barnhart.

The MLB trade deadline is just hours away, and it’s already been an incredibly active week around the league.

DETROIT The Detroit Tigers are squarely back in the postseason picture after winning three straight series against playoff-bound teams. As of Monday, the Tigers sit just two games behind the Toronto Blue Jays for the No. Here are five starting pitchers and five outfielders the Tigers could consider targeting in a last-minute deal. Danny DuffyThere isnt much talk about Duffy right now, but hes having a really strong season. It would be a shock to see the Tigers target a player of Martes caliber, but it would actually make sense.

Right now, its a three-team race between the Tigers, Blue Jays and Baltimore Orioles, who are 1.5 games out of the No. The Blue Jays have the most talented lineup with the likes of Cavan Biggio, Vlad Guerrero Jr., Teoscar Hernandez and a red-hot Randal Grichuk. The Blue Jays have the best roster and the easiest schedule, and theyve already improved their team through a trade. The Blue Jays got Daniel Vogelbach, the Padres got Yonder Alonso and the Giants got Daniel Robertson, all for cash considerations. Norris, on the other hand, is coming off his best season as a pro and is showing increased velocity.
