""I never really bought into that possibility," Verducci said to Dodgers Nation's Doug McKain. "...I think Tarik Skubal likely is not going to re-sign to the Tigers. If he does, it's going to be beyond anywhere the Tigers have gone, even with Miguel Cabrera. They're a team that can win the American League pennant, and that's with Tarik Skubal.""
""It's not a 0% chance," Verducci said of the Tigers falling out of contention, the Dodgers losing some rotation pieces and LA shipping prospects to Detroit. "All those things that you mentioned, I think beginning with the Tigers falling out of it, and the Dodgers just paying a little more than market value to be honest with you. "It would have to be a trade that hurts the Dodgers in terms of prospect capital because, lets face it, other teams"
The Los Angeles Dodgers expressed offseason interest in Tarik Skubal, initiating talks during the Winter Meetings. Tarik Skubal is viewed as a top starting pitcher who may not re-sign with Detroit, but would command a contract beyond Detroit's typical pay structure. The Tigers are projected as American League pennant contenders, making it unlikely they would sell a frontline starter while in contention. A trade could occur only if Detroit falls from contention, the Dodgers lose rotation pieces, and Los Angeles is willing to overpay and part with significant prospect capital to acquire Skubal.
