## Resource

Tarik Skubal’s All-Star break is all business—he’s not taking a vacation or heading to the game, just grinding through his routine for Saturday’s start. Frustrated after being pulled in the sixth inning despite a reasonable pitch count, he’s laser-focused on pitching deep and taking pride in his craft. The manager’s decision, made for strategic reasons against tough hitters and with bullpen options ready, didn’t sit well—but Skubal respects the call. With the Tigers losing back-to-back games to elite starters, the trade deadline looms as a potential career-defining moment. While others rest, Skubal’s back to work, locked in for the second half.
