MLB Trade Rumors: Tigers Hot For Aaron Harang?

Harang’s 3.20 ERA with the Padres this season is deceptive, as his peripheral statistics are nothing special and of course he’s blessed by his home ballpark. As a No. 5 starter, though? He would fit nicely, and would at the least allow management to focus on other roster issues.

While they’ve not yet taken charge of the American League Central, the Tigers are rated by Baseball Prospectus as 61-percent favorites to capture the title. Adding Harang would bump that up by another percent or two.
