Summary
The Cubs are eyeing Detroit’s ace Tarik Skubal before the August 3 deadline, but the price tag could be steep—especially with teams like the Dodgers, Brewers, and Rays also in the mix, armed with top prospects. Skubal’s one-year contract after 2025 adds urgency, making him a high-value target. While the Cubs’ interest signals ambition, their prospect depth may not stack up against rivals, turning this pursuit into a long shot—but one worth watching.
