Tarik Skubal News
Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal tossed six innings of shutout ball while striking out six and allowing just one hit in a 13-0 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday. Skubal was efficient in the outing, needing just 74 pitches to cruise through his six innings of work. He didn't allow a baserunner until the fifth inning when he gave up a double to Randal Grichuck. Skubal has been dominant in 2024, posting a 6-0 record, 1.80 ERA, 0.78 WHIP, and 66 strikeouts over 55 innings of work. Skubal has to be considered a must-start in fantasy moving forward. His next start is scheduled to come against the Kansas City Royals on Wednesday.
Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Tarik Skubal dominated the New York Yankees on Sunday, striking out 12 while allowing just two runs over six innings. Skubal allowed just six hits and didn't walk a batter in this one, taking a tough-luck no-decision. The 27-year-old has been brilliant this season, going 4-0 with a 1.90 ERA and 0.77 WHIP along with 53 strikeouts in 42 IP. He is a frontrunner for the A.L. Cy Young and should be considered a fantasy ace.
Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Tarik Skubal allowed one run on four hits across seven innings of work during Sunday's 4-1 win over the Kansas City Royals. He struck out six batters while issuing one walk. It was another masterful day on the mound for Skubal, who improved his season record to 4-0. The 27-year-old now owns a sparkling 1.72 ERA, 0.74 WHIP and 41/6 K/BB through six starts. Skubal is unquestionably one of the top pitchers in baseball and is a must-start whenever he takes the field. He should continue to find success in his next projected outing against the New York Yankees.

In 2021, Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal had good strikeout numbers, but the walks were too high, leading to an uninspiring K-BB% of 18.5%. The former ninth-round pick also allowed the third-most HR (35) that year, resulting in a 4.34 ERA. The 2022 season showed signs of improvement but was cut short in August after needing flexor tendon surgery. The Detroit hurler returned in July of 2023 and was superb in his limited action. The southpaw had a 2.80 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and struck out 102 in 80.1 innings. Skubal increased his K-BB% to a sparkling 28.4% in 2023 and lowered his ERA, WHIP, OBA, HR/9, and BB/9 in the last two seasons. While all that points to a successful 2024 campaign, his NFBC ADP of 54 now sits 10 picks ahead of last year's NL Cy Young winner, Blake Snell, and his RotoBaller rank stands at 68, which puts him into overvalued territory. The young lefty's FGDC projection shows a 3.34 ERA, 1.14 WHIP, 198 K in 171 IP, and a 21.5% K-BB%. For those bullish on his services, he does compete in the AL Central, which produced the least amount of runs in 2023, and he'll presumably face the Minnesota Twins multiple times -; the team that struck out most last season. Skubal has the upside to be an ace and is an excellent No. 2 option for fantasy teams heading into upcoming drafts.
