How long will it take the Tigers to trade him?

Wow. Good for him.

honestly not surprised. if there are pitchers worth that kind of money, he's one of em

Detroit must have known yesterday when they signed Valdez. When Jobe is back they would have 6 top of the rotation arms. None should not be in the rotation.

Telephone rings. Hello Mr. Skubal, I have the General Manager of the Dodgers here on hold for you.

Good for him, but bad for fans of small market teams.

20 teams have a 30% chance to make the playoffs, all but seven have a 20% chance to make the playoffs. The competitive balance issue is overblown.

They only offered him $19 mil. That was unwise. They're lucky he didn't write down $40 mil.

Wonder what uniform numbers Skubal and Skenes will wear for the Dodgers?

The Mets should be a player in this along with the Dodgers. Mets have good young pitching while the Dodgers have the position prospects

Yes he will be a dodger before the end of spring training and the will probably sign him to a 450 million dollar extension before the season starts

Scott Boras knows better. Didn’t I hear he got $31M for Juan Soto previously. Like him or not Scott Boras is top notch agent.
No wonder his agency gets so many of the top players .
He gets the $$$$$

And the Tigers can really set their team up by doing this

Can dominant pitching win with a below average offense? This will be a good test to see if the Cardinals plan is viable. I don’t see it. I am a firm beleive Mr in it will take a top 10 offense and pitching to win.

Skubal
Valdez
Flarhety
Jobe
Mize
Olson

All better than any Cardinals SP

Well price of all pitching just went up again
