Tigers Wanted Mets' Five Best Prospects for Tarik Skubal?
The New York Post's Joel Sherman writes that the New York Mets got indications that Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal might have cost them their "five best prospects" in a trade. New York's five best prospects were Nolan McLean, Carson Benge, Jett Williams, Jonah Tong, and Brandon Sproat before they traded Williams and Sproat to the Milwaukee Brewers in exchange for right-hander Freddy Peralta this week. The Tigers have a sky-high asking price for Skubal, who won his second straight American League Cy Young award in 2025 after setting career highs in ERA (2.21), WHIP (0.89), strikeouts (241), and innings pitched (195 1/3). The 29-year-old southpaw is the most dominant starting pitcher in the game right now, and although he'll be a free agent after the 2026 season, it appears Detroit will hang onto him for now.
