Tigers listen to trade offers for Tarik Skubal as deadline approaches

The Detroit Tigers, currently 27-39 this season, are evaluating trade options amid a slight playoff contention with a 23.7% chance. While the team has won five of its last six games, MLB insider Jon Morosi indicates they are not rushing trades, particularly regarding pending free agents. Tarik Skubal, expected to be a free agent after the season, has surfaced in trade conversation, though the Tigers may delay any move depending on performance leading up to the August 3 deadline. Skubal should remain with the team through June to potentially bolster their postseason run or enhance his trade value.
