I wonder who will pick him up

Tigers To Designate Dontrelle Willis For Assignment
By Mike Axisa [May 29 at 9:05pm CST]
The Tigers will designate Dontrelle Willis for assignment tomorrow, according to the team's official Twitter feed. The move will free up a roster spot for Max Scherzer, who is being called up to start tomorrow's game.
Willis, still just 28, has been a disappointment since coming over from the Marlins prior to the 2008 season. Overall he posted a 6.86 ERA in 101 innings with the team, including a 4.98 ERA in 43.1 innings this year. He won just two gamess in a Tigers' uniform, missing time with everything from knee hyper-extension to forearm tightness to anxiety disorder.
The Tigers have ten days to trade, release, or waive the former Rookie of the Year, but are still on the hook for his $12MM salary this season.
After being designated for assignment, Dontrelle Willis would like to play for a West Coast team, according to FOX Sports' Jon Paul Morosi (via Twitter). Morosi says the Diamondbacks are Willis' first choice.
Should the Reds try to make a trade for Dontrelle Willis?
Unless Brian Price goes to Walt and says he KNOWS he can fix him, then no way. Its a waste of time and resources to go after this dude.

Would he more useful coming out of the Bullpen for awhile?
Cards might take a flyer on him. Try and have Duncan do some magic with him.
If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.
All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
Supposedly he wants to play on the West Coast. D'backs are reportedly his first choice.
Crazy to see how the famed FLA-DET trade turned out. One of the biggest blockbuster trades of all time, and every player involved has been a pretty big disappointment.
Go BLUE!!!
