We're only a few days away from baseball's waiver trade deadline of August 31, and though there hasn't been nearly as much wheeling and dealing in August as there was in July, there are still a few moves we may see before the deadline passes.

In Detroit the Tigers have placed veteran left-hander and hater of cameramen everywhere Kenny Rogers on waivers, and he may be traded any day now.

Rogers said Monday that he was not aware of any trade discussions involving him. And he did not appear concerned with the prospect of being dealt.

"Dealing in hypotheticals is very difficult -- I'm not one to do that," Rogers said. "I haven't thought about a deadline. I'm not worried about one, that's for sure."

The article in the Detroit Free Press also says that Rogers isn't the only player the team placed on waivers, just that he's one of "several" players. Who those players are, it doesn't say. As for where Rogers will end up, the Red Sox have shown interest in him lately, and I'm guessing if he goes anywhere, Boston will be it.

Though I'm not sure why the Red Sox would want him. He's 9-11 with a 5.09 ERA on the season, and hitters are succeeding at a .312 clip against him since the All Star break. Maybe they're hoping that a move to a contending team will rejuvenate the veteran down the stretch.
