Tigers Major MLB Trade Deadline Acquisition Has Incredible Debut With Team With the team limping a bit going into the trade deadline, the Tigers figured to be a team that was going to make a splash or two.

Three of the past 10 World Series MVPs — Jorge Soler, Steve Pearce, and Ben Zobrist — were midseason acquisitions. In the past 15 years, deals for Justin Verlander, Hunter Pence, Jake Peavy, Aroldis Chapman, and Jordan Montgomery were among those that helped propel teams to a championship.

"First off, across the game, that was crazy," Detroit Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said. "Every minute, it felt like another trade was happening."
