The Detroit Tigers are in a strong position in the AL Central, leading by eight games and focused on postseason preparation rather than just playoff qualification. With their trade deadline approaching, their priority is to strengthen the roster for October by potentially adding depth in pitching and versatile hitters. President of baseball operations Scott Harris emphasizes the need for continuous improvement to remain competitive for the World Series. Among potential targets are Reid Detmers from the Angels, a promising reliever with several years of control left, utility player Willi Castro from the Twins, and Zack Littell from the Rays, who offers reliable innings. The Tigers have the prospects needed to make impactful trades without sacrificing their top talent.
