The Seattle Mariners have traded left-handed pitcher Jarrod Washburn to the Detroit Tigers for rookie left-hander Luke French and pitching prospect Mauricio Robles, sources tell ESPN.
The Yankees, who have considering an upgrade to their rotation, and Mariners also had spoken briefly about a proposal involving Washburn on Thursday afternoon, a source told ESPN The Magazine's Buster Olney.
Washburn has a 2.64 ERA this season and an 8-6 record.

Good move for the Tigers. I have a feeling they are going to be a thorn in someone's side come the playoffs in the AL.

Smart move by the M's, they save money and get younger. I hope Washburn does well in Detroit, but his ERA is a fluke.
