Hinch reacted after Skubal won arbitration, landing $32 million instead of Detroit’s $19 million offer. The coach said he wants “players to get their due” and teams “trying to win the World Series.” Hinch praised Skubal as “handling it like a true pro,” working “at six o’clock” in Arizona, keeping “dead straight communication,” and flipping “the off-season page” to 2026.
