Dodgers Drop 7 Straight After Skubal Trade
Los Angeles has not won since acquiring ace Tarik Skubal, raising questions about the team's current form heading into upcoming games.
The Dodgers acquired Tarik Skubal approximately one week ago in a move widely seen as cementing their status as World Series favorites. Since that acquisition, the team has lost seven consecutive games. The losing streak represents a notable slump for a club that entered the deal with championship expectations. The skid is a meaningful team-form signal for any near-term game predictions involving Los Angeles.
