Tarik Skubal Set to Pursue Record Contract in Free Agency

Consecutive Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal is set to meet with suitors, including the Los Angeles Dodgers, as he aims for a record-breaking contract exceeding $325 million. Acquired by Los Angeles at the August trade deadline, the left-hander remains the market's premier arm despite a history featuring Tommy John surgery, flexor tendon repair, and a May 2026 elbow procedure that required just 32 days of recovery before his return.
