The L.A. Dodgers are interested in trading for Tigers second baseman Ian Kinsler, according to reporter Jon Morosi.
Morosi cited unnamed sources, reporting that both teams have been in contact regarding a trade.
Kinsler is owed $11 million in the final year of his contract with the Tigers (with a $10M option for 2018), and has a partial no-trade clause with 10 teams. It's unknown whether or not the Dodgers are one of those teams.

#Tigers have interest in #Dodgers prospect Cody Bellinger, sources say. Has 1.012 OPS in AFL and is what they want: young LHH with power.
