Excellent baseball sources have confirmed for me tonight that the Cubs are down the road in discussions with the Detroit Tigers to send Matt Garza to the Motor City in exchange for a package of prospects. The Cubs are currently in the middle of a complete overhaul of their major league roster and several teams have expressed serious interest in Garza including the Tigers, the Yankees, the Red Sox, and the Blue Jays. He would be projected as the Tigers No. 2 starter behind Cy Young award winner Justin Verlander.
Quote:
The Tigers also have a handful of minor league standouts including pitcher Jacob Turner and third baseman Nick Castellanos. An interesting third name in the Tigers system could be left hander Casey Crosby, who played his high school baseball in the Chicago area at Maple Park.
