Detroit Tigers consider returning Tarik Skubal at discounted price

The Detroit Tigers are monitoring Tarik Skubal's free agency as he enters the market following his trade to the Los Angeles Dodgers. The team is reportedly interested in a reunion but only if the price is right, as they aim to avoid competing financially with frontrunners like the Dodgers and the New York Mets. Skubal, a two-time American League Cy Young Award winner, is projected to receive a contract in the range of eight years and up to $355 million. The Tigers have not initiated formal negotiations for Skubal. His injury history may impact the asking price, adding to the uncertainty around his potential value in the free-agent market.
