Rick Porcello strikes out six in win
Rick Porcello - S - Detroit Tigers
March 4, 2013 - 5:30 PM ET

With several scouts in attendance, Rick Porcello pitched four scoreless innings and strick out six in the Tigers' 8-5 defeat of the Astros on Monday.

That can't hurt his trade value. Many believe the Tigers will end up dealing Porcello and going with Drew Smyly as their fifth starter. He's allowed three runs and posted a 10/0 K/BB ratio in eight innings this spring.
