The Tigers have a ton of young talent filling up MLB spots so they needed some roster flexibility and are positioning themselves to move some of their young talent for some proven players to mix in with the likes of Rutschman, France, Franco and Carlson to name a few.
Garcia definitely could have stayed on board with the young crew I have coming up however with all the prospects I have accumulated since taking over the Dodgers last season not all of them will pan out, so the objective here was increasing my numbers of near MLB-ready prospects to improve my chances of hitting on more stars!

Everybody knows all the players involved.  I ship AG for 3 prospects.  Tigers free me from Blackburn and I add on a 19 year old prospect to push the deal over the line. 

Always good talks with the Tigers!
