Tarik Skubal (SP, DET) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 275

CURRENT ADP: ~295 overall

ANALYSIS: Tarik Skubal was not even the most highly touted young pitcher on his own team last year, as he was often overlooked for Casey Mize. However, Skubal outperformed Mize and posted a really strong 27.6% strikeout rate with an 8.2% walk rate. The ERA was bloated because of a huge home run issue (2.53 HR/9). Call me crazy, but I don't think a guy with as much talent as Skubal will post anything close to a home run rate that high over a full season.

Be sure to check all of our fantasy baseball draft tools and resources:

The Tigers' plan was probably not to have Skubal in the Majors so early, but the canceled minor league season forced their hand. One possible consequence of that early arrival was Skubal really being overly reliant on his fastball, throwing it 59% of the time. While it is a great pitch (touches 98 on the gun), you just cannot throw that many fastballs and have success in the Majors. The good news is that Skubal has four other pitches in his arsenal. They all need some refinement, but just the presence of them really raises the ceiling here. With a full offseason of work, Skubal should be ready to really take the next step forward and crush his draft price.

10 League-Winning Starting Pitchers: Fantasy Baseball Later-Round Draft Targets (2025)

The term "league-winning" is better served in fantasy football, where one player can single-handedly win your matchup for you. Think stud rookie wideouts who had a huge second half like Brian Thomas Jr. or running backs who took over as starters like Bucky Irving. Whereas in fantasy baseball, you need several pieces of the puzzle […]
