SI.com’s John Heyman is reporting that the Tigers have traded catcher Ivan “Pudge” Rodriguez to the Yankees for pitcher Kyle Farnsworth. This was updated about 15 minutes ago and we didn’t see the trade being reported anywhere else immediately (ESPN just put it up right before we posted), but there you have it. Whaddya think? Definitely helps the Tigers’ struggling bullpen, and they don’t necessarily need Pudge’s bat.
