Pathway Opens For Mets To Land Tarik Skubal

One of baseball’s major storylines this season was solved when the Detroit Tigers traded ace pitcher Tarik Skubal, who had won consecutive American League Cy Young Awards, to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Skubal is in the midst of a playoff run with the Dodgers, trying to help them become the first team in over a quarter century to win three straight World Series championships. He’s also slated to become an unrestricted free agent at this season’s send, and could potentially command a new contract worth upwards of $400 million.
