Does It Really Matters What Tarik Skubal Will Cost at the Trade Deadline? | Atlanta Braves Podcast
from Braves Today · host Bleav
Lindsay Crosby breaks down what it could take for the Braves to acquire Tigers ace Tarik Skubal and other supposedly available pitchers at the trade deadline, using historical trade comps (David Price, Max Scherzer, José Berríos, Jordan Montgomery, Andrew Miller, Drew Pomeranz) to estimate prospect packages from Atlanta’s system. He discusses Atlanta’s urgent need for a true Game 2 playoff starter behind Chris Sale, introduces a Braves prospect composite tool for evaluating trade value, and explains how expanded playoff races may inflate prices. The episode closes with a preview of the Orioles series, noting Baltimore’s recent success driven by pitching, bullpen volatility, and underperforming hitters, plus how Atlanta can push teams toward selling.
