Summary
The Detroit Tigers stand at a pivotal moment as the All-Star break ends, trailing the AL Central by six and a half games and three and a half behind a Wild Card spot. With the trade deadline fast approaching, the biggest question is whether they’ll trade ace Tarik Skubal — a two-time Cy Young contender still under contract through 2026. Holding onto him could mean going all-in for a championship this year, while trading him might secure future assets. But without a contract extension in sight, the front office faces a brutal choice: chase glory now or rebuild later — and either way, the stakes couldn’t be higher.
