Top Tarik Skubal News

  • Tigers' Tarik Skubal: Confirmed for start next week

    Skubal (hand) will start Wednesday's game in Kansas City, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

    All the tests checked out on Skubal's bruised non-throwing hand, but he will end up getting an extra day of rest in between his starts. Evan Woodbery of MLive.com notes that the Tigers could squeeze three more starts total out of Skubal, with him staying on normal rest to start Sept. 24 at home against Tampa Bay and then working the final day of the regular season against the White Sox. Detroit is 2.5 games out of the final wild-card spot in the AL however, and if the team has nothing to play for by that point, Skubal could be shut down or have a restricted pitch count for his final outing.

  • Tigers' Tarik Skubal: X-rays on hand are negative

    X-rays on Skubal's right hand came back negative after he exited Thursday's start against the Rockies, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

    Skubal was hit on the non-throwing hand by a comebacker in the sixth inning Thursday, though he stayed in the finish the frame. It sounds as through he'll be fine, but he will undergo additional testing to be safe. Skubal yielded just one run on four hits and no walks while limiting the Rockies to one run over six innings in a no-decision. He had thrown just 84 pitches over his six frames, so the lefty might have gone back out for the seventh if not for the hand issue. Skubal is lined up to face the Royals on the road the next time out, as long as his hand continues to check out fine.

  • Tigers' Tarik Skubal: Falls just short of quality start

    Skubal allowed two runs on nine hits and struck out seven without walking a batter over 5.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Athletics on Friday.

    Skubal pitched well, but he came up an out short of a quality start after the Athletics were able to create traffic on the basepaths in the sixth inning. On the bright side, Skubal recorded at least seven strikeouts for the 10th time in his last 12 starts, and this was the fourth outing in a row in which he didn't issue a free pass. The Tigers' ace is at a 2.53 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 208:33 K:BB through 174 innings over 28 starts this year. Skubal is lined up to make his next start at home versus the Rockies.

  • Tigers' Tarik Skubal: First to 200 Ks

    Skubal (16-4) allowed one run on four hits over eight innings to pick up the win Saturday against the Red Sox. He struck out eight without walking a batter.

    Skubal was masterful once again, with his only blemish a solo home run by Tyler O'Neill in the first inning. The lefty was on cruise control from there, and he wrapped up his career-high eight innings on 98 pitches, lowering his season ERA to a sparkling 2.51. This was the seventh time this year that Skubal didn't walk anyone in a start, allowing him to trim his BB/9 to an outstanding 1.8. Detroit's ace became the first pitcher in the majors this season to reach 200 strikeouts with 201 in 168.1 innings, making him the favorite for the AL Cy Young Award heading into September. Skubal is penciled in to make his next outing Friday against the Athletics on the road, and he will look to keep building on his success in the favorable matchup.

  • Tigers' Tarik Skubal: Picks up 15th win

    Skubal (15-4) got the win against the White Sox on Saturday, allowing three runs on eight hits over five innings. He struck out eight and did not issue a walk.

    Skubal managed to get through five innings on Saturday to become the first pitcher this season to 15 wins. Skubal is expected to get extra rest in between starts the rest of the way, but he doesn't seem to be slowing down much with three wins in his last four trips to the mound. The 27-year-old racked up another eight strikeouts, and he now has eight or more in five of his last six outings.

  • Tigers' Tarik Skubal: Will get extra rest down stretch

    Skubal will get extra rest in between starts for the final six weeks of the regular season, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.

    Skubal turned in another strong start Sunday against the Yankees, allowing only one earned run with five strikeouts and four walks across six innings. He has now completed a career-high 155.1 frames for the campaign, topping the 149.1 innings he compiled in 2021. The Tigers will limit his workload down the stretch as a result, though manager A.J. Hinch did not bring up any consideration of shutting Skubal down.
