Carl Pavano coming to Detroit?

The Detroit Tigers are currently trying to get another big name player to sign with them. This time it is pitcher Carl Pavano from the Florida Marlins. Pavano went 18-8 with a 3.00 ERA last season. Pavano turned down a three-year, $21-million deal to remain in Florida and he didn't take it. It has been rumored that Pavano is going to sign with the Red Sox or the Yankees. It would be huge if the Tigers could sign him. He would instantly become the Tigers' number one pitcher. If the Tigers signed him then it would also possibley draw other big name free agents to come to Detroit. We can't get too excited about something that probably won't happen, but it is still nice too hear the Tigers being talked about as one of the teams going after players during this offseason.
