RHP – Dereck Rodriguez

Another option who doesn’t really move the needle. We wrote about Rodriguez last week, and sure, it might be kind of fun to see the son of Pudge back in Comerica, but that’s not the sort of thing fans would pay to see. It might actually make some sense from a baseball standpoint, though, as the Tigers have six games in the next five days, and they always need pitching.
