All of that trade talk is just noise for right now, but the talk of Tigers starter Justin Verlander being dealt is getting deafening as Detroit prepares to close out its three-game interleague series with the San Francisco Giants on Thursday afternoon. After throwing a bullpen in which he concentrated on remastering his changeup Wednesday, Verlander sat in front of his locker and chatted about the thing a lot of folks in Detroit are talking about right now -- whether the Tigers' longtime ace could get traded this month. "It's one of those things you don't think about until it's right in front of my face," Verlander said.
