The Detroit Tigers can give up on the idea of going anywhere in 2021, and these three players should be traded to accelerate the rebuild.

Spencer Turnbull, who threw the high fastball that the Yankees outfielder chased for strike three, was just as angry, yelling at himself on his way off the mound. It was the rare strikeout where neither pitcher
