Tigers reach deal with Dodgers, but Detroit RHP Eduardo Rodriguez exercises no-trade clause
Tigers ace Eduardo Rodriguez used his no-trade clause to block a deal to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday. “To have a chance to come to a team with guys that he’s familiar with, on a team that’s playing for a championship, it’s surprising," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said after Tuesday's trade deadline. Los Angeles and Detroit agreed to a trade, but the struggling Tigers were unable to move Rodriguez because of terms in his contract.
