He took time off without pay either earlier this year or last year for some kind of family problem. He may figure that he has generational wealth and doesn't want to move his family to California.

I was very surprised, however, that Detroit didn't have a second trade lined up, given that Rodriquez can't be offered a QO (similar to Stroman) but had a 10 team no trade clause. Hell, the Cubs should have offered Wisdom for him.
