Jack Flaherty Says He Didn't Want to Be Traded to Dodgers at Trade Deadline
Briefly

Jack Flaherty, who was traded by the Detroit Tigers to the Los Angeles Dodgers, expressed his desire to remain with Detroit during an interview. Despite enjoying his time with the Tigers and believing in their potential postseason success, he found himself traded at the deadline. The Tigers made a surprising postseason run, advancing to the Division Series without Flaherty. Looking forward, Flaherty indicated interest in returning to Detroit next season as a free agent, contemplating his options as the best remaining starting pitcher available on the market.
I wanted to stay in Detroit. We had conversations. I loved it there. I thought the combo of me and Skub (Tarik Skubal) was incredible.
They get to Game 5 with Cleveland, they've got Skub on the mound, and Lane Thomas puts one swinging - that's how the playoffs go.
It was fun to watch what they did. We've been talking to them, talking to other teams. It would be fun to go back there.
Flaherty is the best free agent starting pitcher remaining on the market. He said... teams have reached out to him but have yet to propose any concrete deals.
