Skubal Could Be Mariners' Big Deadline Upgrade

ESPN insider Jeff Passan argues Tarik Skubal, a two-time Cy Young winner, would be a strong trade target for the Seattle Mariners at the MLB deadline to boost a rotation that already features six solid starters and prized pitching prospects; Skubal’s elbow surgery recovery has him nearing a rehab assignment, and Detroit may be open to moving him as he heads to free agency after the season, potentially in a deal that could involve exchanging a current starter, with Passan also noting other fit options like Rico Garcia and Jo Adell.

Seattle Mariners' 2023 Season: Confusing, Critical, and Salvaged.

ESPN MLB insider Jeff Passan expressed confusion as to why the Seattle Mariners are not performing better this season, despite their recent success. The Mariners have struggled to maintain a winning record and are currently four games out of the third and final spot in the American League wild card race. It is unclear whether the team will buy, sell, or do a bit of both at the upcoming trade deadline. Passan suggested that the Mariners may need to trade outfielder Teoscar Hernández, who is a pending free agent, to take advantage of the market and improve the team elsewhere.
