The Detroit Tigers are still not done though with trades, there are many rumors that they are still looking for more big names. There is a lot of talk of getting Shin-Soo Choo who is a out fielder for the Cincinnati Reds. Some say he is the best outfielder on the open market, but with being the best comes a big contract as well. Luis Ayala is also on the Tigers radar to help the bullpen out with another great reliever from the Atlanta Braves. With a low era it would be another great player to add to the list, and would for sure help the bull pen out. With all that is going on I'm really excited to see what Detroit is going to do next season with all of there big roster moves

Big Moves in Detroit
It is hard not to be excited if your a Detroit Tigers fan lately with all of the moves that they are making with the roster. Starting off with going out, and getting a new manager to fill the spot that Jim Leyland left when he stepped down. Having Brad Ausmus as the manager for the Tigers now well bring a young new face to the team, and also a modern day look at the game with game decisions. Also then just seventeen days later they traded Prince Fielder to the Texan Rangers for Ian Kinsler, the all star second basemen, which the trade seemed crazy at first, but the Tigers needed a second basemen. Also on top of getting a great second basemen, the Tigers free up a lot of money to re sign Max Scherzer the Cy Young winner of the 2013 season. Keeping with the pitching core they also came to a agreement with the closer Phil Coke on a one year deal. As a Tigers fan i feel that every year in the post season with have great pitching, batting, fielding, but we also come up short with our pitching closers. So on December third they signed the left handed closer Joe Nathan from the Texans. With forty three saves in his last season for the Rangers it's going to be good to see him in a Tigers uniform because not only is he on our team, but we do not have to face him now. Along with his save he also just didn't win, but sat down many batters with seventy three strikeouts.
