Even though many consider Detroit Tigers All-Star pitcher Tarik Skubal unlikely to get moved ahead of the 2024 MLB trade deadline, his potential to get sent somewhere else can’t still be slept upon. There are some clues pointing to Detroit’s door being open to such a scenario, including one that has been recently shared by Jon Morosi of the MLB Network.

Even though many consider Detroit Tigers All-Star pitcher Tarik Skubal unlikely to get moved ahead of the 2024 MLB trade deadline, his potential to get sent somewhere else can’t still be slept upon. There are some clues pointing to Detroit’s door being open to such a scenario, including one that has been recently shared by Jon Morosi of the MLB Network.

On Tarik Skubal, consider the following: I’m told the Tigers have had a scout watching the Orioles’ Triple-A Norfolk affiliate in recent days. Jackson Holliday, Coby Mayo, Connor Norby, and Kyle Stowers are on the Norfolk roster,” Morosi posted on X (the social media platform formerly known as Twitter) on Monday morning.

The Orioles’ farm talent is among the most tantalizing today in baseball. In fact, they have three players currently on the top 15 list of MLB.com’s prospect rankings. Infielder Jackson Holliday, who had a brief stint in the majors earlier in the 2024 MLB regular season, is ranked No. 1 overall; catcher/first baseman Samuel Basallo is 12th; while infielder Coby Mayo is 15th.
