The Los Angeles Dodgers have reportedly acquired star pitcher Tarik Skubal from the Detroit Tigers in a trade that has shaken up Major League Baseball. The move removes one of the sport's top starting pitchers from the market.
Detroit fans were caught off guard by the deal, as the Tigers are currently just 2.5 games out of an American League Wild Card spot. Trading away their ace while still in playoff contention has stunned the team's supporters.
With Skubal now off the board, several other starting pitchers are reportedly still available for teams looking to bolster their rotations before the trade deadline.
