Tigers trade deadline tracker: Full list of Detroit's completed deals at the 2025 deadline

The MLB trade deadline is expected to be crucial for the Detroit Tigers this season. The Tigers are looking to make several aggressive moves at the deadline to put them in a prime position to compete for the American League pennant and their first World Series Championship since 1984. 

With the trade deadline two days away, the Tigers have already made one move to improve their roster, but many expect more to follow. 

On Monday, Detroit acquired Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Chris Paddack and Randy Dobnak. In return, the Twins received Tigers catching prospect Enrique Jimenez.

When is the MLB trade deadline?

The MLB trade deadline is set for 6 p.m. Eastern Time on Thursday, July 31st. After the deadline, no MLB trades can go through. All trades must be submitted to the MLB by the 6 p.m. deadline 

What can the Tigers do at the deadline?

The Tigers need relievers and a right-handed hitter for their lineup. Tigers fans know all too well from their previous postseason runs in 2013 and 2014 that their bullpen was their biggest weakness, which led to the team’s downfall in the playoffs. The addition of a couple of key pieces to their bullpen will go a long way in helping the Tigers to compete for a World Series title.

While the Tigers have several young, talented hitters in their lineup, another player in their lineup could help Detroit in the postseason. Here’s a trade tracker for the Tigers.
