The early favorites for a Tarik Skubal trade deadline landing spot
New York Post • • general
Key Points:
- The likelihood of a deadline trade involving pitching star Tarik Skubal is increasing as the Tigers continue to underperform in MLB.
- Skubal is showing promising progress following elbow surgery, making him an attractive trade asset before he becomes a free agent.
- Despite a late-season rally in 2024 after selling at the deadline, the Tigers have struggled this season with six starters on the injured list.
- The team has been notably unproductive, posting a 4-18 record since Skubal was sidelined.
