2026 Trade Deadline - Skubal to dodgers

Dodgers have a series at Detroit at the end of the month. Hopefully Skubal gets a start and it would be just flat out awesome if the Tigers knocked him around.
 
Scott Harris f'n sucks, one guy is already 27 and coming off Tommy John surgery.
No Sirota or Wrobleski in this trade

Tigers faced facts on Skubal -- and from the Dodgers got a proper package of youth and talent.
The hated (by many) team with a loaded farm unloaded a trio of prospects, two of them hard-throwing pitchers, and one a potentially splendid outfielder, as the Tigers said goodbye to their superstar.

Not sure what you guys were expecting for a 2 month rental. Getting an elite prospect and 2 potential back end relievers is pretty solid to me. To get a massive haul he needed to be traded last year like some of us were calling for.
 
The outfielder is 27 and has hamstring issues.
One of the pitchers had Tommy John surgery and is not pitching like he was before the surgery close to 2 years.
Harris went for the offer and should have demanded one of Sirota or Wrobleski.
Oh well, we all have an opinion.
 
At least Zyhir Hope is only 21 years old. He did hit two homers Friday night and has 23 homers and 87 RBIs. Im just worried he bats left and we needed a right handed batter. Hopefully he cuts down on his strikeouts

 
The outfielder is 21 and never has had injury issues. River Ryan is the pitcher that had tommy john and is currently out with a hammy strain. The guy throws 100 and was great for the Dodgers before getting tommy john. The other pitcher has a high k rate as well. Worst case is both end up back end relievers.

Don't need right handed hitters if your lefties can hit lhp. Hope can

I hope you are right for sure
. I just wanted Mike Sirota. I'm just glad Harris traded him. I'm not fighting you G.I just thought we could get a tad more. He does have amazing power. 45bb 106k's is my worry.
 
Skubal and Boros killed some of Skubals value when he said he wanted to go to the Dodgers.

If I’m Harris I don’t care where he wanted to go, he doesn’t have a no trade clause. Boras has been jerking around teams his whole career, I probably trade him anywhere else because of that. I have said for a while they should have traded him before the season. If I’m a GM I wouldn’t deal with Boras, especially after the Bregman fiasco.
