Tarik Skubal Placed on Paternity List, Expected to Start Saturday
Tarik Skubal has been placed on the paternity list. However, the star left-hander is still scheduled to make his next start on Saturday against the Toronto Blue Jays, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports. For now, right-hander Troy Melton will take his place on the Tigers' roster. Skubal was dominant yet again in his most recent start last Sunday against the Texas Rangers, as he fanned 11 hitters in 6 2/3 innings. Overall, the reigning AL Cy Young winner has gone 10-3 with a 2.19 ERA, a league-best 0.81 WHIP, and 164:16 K:BB across 127 2/3 innings.
