Detroit Tigers pitcher Tarik Skubal, a two-time Cy Young Award winner, will undergo arthroscopic surgery to remove loose bodies from his left elbow, with a typical recovery time of two to three months. Loose bodies, fragments of bone or cartilage, can cause pain and limit motion, and are common in pitchers. This injury is less severe than previous surgeries Skubal has had but poses a challenge as he approaches the final year of his contract. The situation adds uncertainty to his upcoming free agency amidst a showcase season.
