Ex-Detroit Tigers left-handed pitcher Andrew Chafin is on the move just ahead of the MLB trade deadline. The 35-year-old was dealt from the Washington Nationals alongside fellow reliever Luis García to the Los Angeles Angels for lefty Jake Eder and minor-league first baseman Sam Brown.

In the most recent pick-up, the Tigers acquired Washington Nationals closer Kyle Finnegan, a Detroit native. According to published reports Detroit sent pitching prospects Josh Randall and RJ Sales Thursday. Finnegan has 20 saves in 26 chances, is 1-4 with a 4.38 ERA, as the latest boost to the bullpen.

The Tigers, in an effort to bolster their weakest link for a World Series run, have acquired closer Kyle Finnegan from the Nationals for two minor leaguers.
