Ken Rosenthal: Mets Obvious Suitor if Tigers Move Tarik Skubal

“With Scott Boras involved,” Rosenthal said, Skubal “could be… the first $400 million pitcher,” so “the logical outcome” is he hits free agency. The Mets are “the obvious team”: they need an ace and “have young starting pitching” to trade. Other big spenders would join, with the Orioles/Burns model. Detroit’s choice: trade or chase 2026; July return “probably not different.”
