Dodgers Acquire Two-Time Cy Young Winner Tarik Skubal From Tigers

The Dodgers acquired left-hander Tarik Skubal from the Tigers on August 1, 2026, per The Guardian. Skubal, 29, won the AL Cy Young — each league's best pitcher — in 2024 and 2025. Detroit received right-handers River Ryan and Brady Smith and outfielder Zyhir Hope. Skubal was set to become a free agent after the World Series. CBS Sports notes no Cy Young winner had been traded this soon since R.A. Dickey in 2012.
