Rays Eye Skubal Before Deadline | Tampa Bay Rays News

The Tampa Bay Rays are in a race to land Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal before the trade deadline, with the two-time Cy Young winner suddenly in play as the Tigers fade from contention. With just six days left, teams including the Yankees, Dodgers, Braves, and Brewers are circling, but the Rays — armed with a strong roster and a need for true ace firepower — are poised to make a bold move. Trading top prospects like Theo Gillen or catchers Caden Bodine and Nathan Flewelling may be tough, but acquiring Skubal could instantly elevate their rotation and give them a championship-caliber weapon to face the league’s elite. The clock is ticking — and the bidding war is heating up. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
