Heyman: Skubal trade looking increasingly likely as Tigers eye full sell-off
Beat reporter Jon Heyman calls it the clearest sign yet that Detroit will move Skubal, with Mize, Gleyber Torres, and Kyle Finnegan also available.
Jon Heyman reports that the Tigers are very likely to trade ace Tarik Skubal ahead of the trade deadline. Detroit's available assets reportedly include Casey Mize, Gleyber Torres, and Kyle Finnegan. Mize was scratched from a scheduled start, which Heyman interprets as a sign his trade candidacy is heating up alongside Skubal's. A full Tigers sell-off appears to be a real possibility.
