"The Dodgers already have four aces in their rotation and an exciting development project in Roki Sasaki. However, teams can never have enough starting pitching, so the Dodgers have no reason not to add another ace to the top of the rotation, especially when they can offer a competitive package and have the resources to keep him long-term, as well,"
"Another idea would be to substitute Tyler Glasnow for Sheehan in the deal. This would give the Tigers a top-of-the-rotation starter to replace Skubal and they would control Glasnow for three more years. Glasnow does not have a no-trade clause with the Dodgers and has $94 million remaining on his contract if the team-half of the 2028 mutual option is exercised."
Tarik Skubal and the Detroit Tigers are far apart on a contract extension, making Skubal potentially available via trade. The Los Angeles Dodgers are a potential suitor despite already possessing multiple elite starting pitchers and a developing prospect in Roki Sasaki. Hypothetical trade packages include Emmet Sheehan, Jackson Ferris, Justin Wrobleski, and Zyhir Hope, or substituting Tyler Glasnow for Sheehan. A Glasnow swap would provide the Tigers a top rotation starter controllable for three more years and leave $94 million remaining on Glasnow's contract under a mutual option. Skubal has one year left on his deal, so long-term assurances would likely be required.
