Tarik Skubal’s time with the Detroit Tigers may be limited as trade speculation grows ahead of the Aug. 3 deadline. Following an elbow injury and innovative NanoNeedle surgery, Skubal could return soon, but the Tigers have struggled, going 4-21 in his absence and holding one of the worst records in MLB. Retaining Skubal could be risky if the team remains out of playoff contention, especially with his impending free agency and potential high salary demands. With a strong 2.70 ERA this season, the Tigers may wait to maximize trade interest and demonstrate his health before making a decision.
