The Detroit Tigers are thought to have interest in Colorado Rockies infielder Marco Scutaro to play second base, reports The New York Post's Joel Sherman. 

  • Scutaro, a free agent at season's end, is making $6 million this season and batting .277/.330/.374, with four home runs and 24 RBI. 
  • The Mets are also interested in Scutaro, and could offer Justin Turner and salary relief, writes Sherman. 
  • Mets sources have denied the team is interested in rockies reliever Matt Reynolds, reported earlier on Sunday. 
  • The Mets are interested in Ramon Hernandez, but won't offer much for him, especially not prospects or projects who can contribute between now and 2014. The Mets view Hernandez as a salary dump, pure and simple. Look for talks to heat up as the deadline approaches.
