Detroit Tigers face a franchise-defining crossroads: should they trade ace Tarik Skubal amid relentless Dodgers rumors, or make a blockbuster extension offer before spring training? Is Detroit ready to let go of their top pitcher, or will Scott Harris hold out for a Juan Soto-sized return?

Scott Bentley breaks down the Tigers’ trade buzz, including updates on Tyler Glasnow’s status with Los Angeles and Ketel Marte’s no-trade list, which leaves Detroit in play for a major infield upgrade. The episode explores Munetaka Murakami’s shrinking window to sign with MLB teams, Josh Bell’s move within the division, and the urgency to add a power bat to the Tigers’ lineup. Will Detroit front office shake up its prospect strategy, or continue playing it safe?
Don’t miss this passionate assessment of the Tigers’ offseason moves, roster challenges, and their chance to reshape the AL Central race for 2026.
