Skubal Starts Throwing Progression After Nanoscope Elbow Surgery
Detroit left-hander Tarik Skubal has begun a throwing progression after a nanoscope procedure to remove loose bodies from his left elbow, starting with daily catch and plans to ramp to bullpen sessions under supervision. Timetable is unclear as he progresses, but the early move is encouraging given his past elbow surgeries. The recovery pace could influence his 2026 outlook and free-agent value, as Detroit weighs when to ramp him back and whether the team remains in playoff contention.
