A.J. Hinch Takes Blame for Tigers’ Trade Deadline Fate

A.J. Hinch is not blaming the Detroit Tigers' trade deadline direction on one bad break, one injury or one player.

He is putting himself on the list.

After Detroit traded Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize while remaining within reach of the American League postseason race, Hinch acknowledged that the Tigers created the circumstances that made selling the most defensible option.
