That means the future of Tarik Skubal will become a big subject of conversation around the team, as they consider their options for 2027. The two-time Cy Young Award winner was acquired at the trade deadline from the Detroit Tigers and is now an unrestricted free agent. Skubal went 5-2 with a 2.61 ERA in his time with LA, with a 70:13 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 62 innings. But he will be looking for a contract...
