Scott Boras Went All-Out in Tarik Skubal Arbitration Hearing With the Tigers

Boras had Skubal bring both of his Cy Young plaques to the hearing, a tactic Tim Lincecum successfully used in 2009 with the Giants. However, Skubal won his case before he ever had to present his awards. The two-time All-Star will make $32M this year, a record salary for an arbitration-eligible player. The Tigers had initially offered the pitcher $19M.
