Orioles Remain In Contact With Tigers About Tarik Skubal
4 months agoThe Baltimore Orioles are still engaged in talks with the Detroit Tigers regarding a potential trade of ace left-hander Tarik Skubal according to Jon Morosi of MLB Network. Nothing is imminent however, Morosi reports. The Orioles are seeking a top-of-the-rotation starter and Skubal would fit the bill although he would likely command a heavy haul coming the other way in a deal. The Orioles have been linked to Skubal through the lead-up to the trade deadline because of their wealth of top prospects like Jackson Holliday, Samuel Basallo, Coby Mayo, and Connor Norby. This will be one of the most interesting developments to monitor as the deadline approaches on Tuesday. Skubal is an AL Cy Young frontrunner with a 12-3 record, 2.35 ERA, and 0.92 WHIP.
