Tigers Expected to Trade Skubal Before Deadline

Rosenthal indicated on MLB on FOX that Skubal's chances of being moved are 'trending that way' amid Detroit's bleak outlook. The Tigers, who sit at 22-37 and tied for the worst record in the American League, have gone 4-20 since Skubal's elbow surgery on May 4.

Skubal, a two-time AL Cy Young winner, is one of 15 Tigers on the injured list. With a 2.70 ERA this season, he's viewed as the top trade candidate as he approaches free agency. The lefty is expected to resume throwing soon and may return by late June, but his health remains a key factor in potential trade discussions. afsport.lat
