Dodgers rotation uncertainty keeps Tarik Skubal trade in play, says insider
The Los Angeles Dodgers are evaluating the health of their rotation, including Shohei Ohtani’s knee discomfort, as the trade deadline approaches. Analyst Ken Rosenthal says the uncertainty makes a potential acquisition of Detroit Tigers pitcher Tarik Skubal a realistic consideration despite the high cost. The Tigers would likely demand a substantial return of prospects, which could deter the Dodgers from pursuing the trade.
- ▪Shohei Ohtani experienced knee discomfort that led to the cancellation of his bullpen session, raising concerns about the Dodgers' rotation health.
- ▪Blake Snell and Tyler Glasnow are also working toward returns, adding to the rotation uncertainty.
- ▪Ken Rosenthal noted that payroll restrictions under the upcoming CBA and the Dodgers' championship window compel them to consider adding a pitcher like Tarik Skubal.
- ▪Detroit would likely require multiple premium prospects and at least one MLB-ready player in exchange for Skubal, making the deal costly.
