Percival To Visit Detroit

Ken Rosenthal, of The Sporting News, reports closer Troy Percival plans to talk with the Detroit Tigers. Clearly, Percival has some negatives, but I think most Tiger fans would feel better with a bullpen featuring both Ugueth Urbina and Percival. Ok, maybe that's just me.

Of course, the possibility of trading Urbina increases should the ex-Anaheim closer arrive in Tigertown. I wouldn't object, if the Tigers truly upgrade by unloading Urbina, but the thought of one as a set-up guy, the other as closer really sounds good. Maybe I just got way too tired of the Tigers bullpen woes this year.
