Wilson could get traded soon

Shortstop Jack Wilson might be traded very soon, perhaps before the Winter Meetings begin.

The Newark Star-Ledger is reporting that Wilson has been traded to the Detroit Tigers. However, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, no such deal has been made. Wilson has a restricted no-trade clause and the Tigers are on that list, meaning Wilson would have to approve a trade to Detroit.

Multiple published reports have the Pirates in heavy talks with the Dodgers about dealing Wilson to his hometown team in Los Angeles, but the Dodgers have balked at all of the Pirates requests.
