Mets’ Tarik Skubal Pursuit Could Come Down to One Factor Money Can’t Solve

The Mets’ season is over, and the Dodgers might be following soon, with them trailing Milwaukee 2-0 in the NLCS. That means Tarik Skubal is going to hit free agency for 2027, and according to MLB insider Chelsea Janes, the Mets might be going in on him. “Scott Boras will make sure they’re (Mets) in the conversation… I think Scott Boris is going to make the argument straight to Steve Cohen,” said Janes. The New York Mets finished the 2026 season with a 74-88 record, and their pitching remains a major concern.
