Latest on Tarik Skubal from GM meetings; Detroit Tigers pitcher Dugan Darnell talks MLB journey
Description
On "Days of Roar," Evan Petzold and Chris Brown recap a busy week of offseason news for the Detroit Tigers and look ahead to some big decisions, including Tarik Skubal winning the 2025 American League Cy Young Award (becoming the first AL back-to-back winner in the 21st century) and Gleyber Torres preparing to decide whether to accept or decline the one-year, $22.025 million qualifying offer. We focus on the latest information about Skubal's future, plus we unpack everything we learned from general manager Jeff Greenberg about the Tigers' plan for free agency and trades. New Tigers reliever Dugan Darnell — a Michigan native — joins the show to discuss being claimed off waivers, his journey from Adrian College, his memorable MLB debut with the Colorado Rockies and his recovery timeline after hip surgery. We also analyze top prospect Kevin McGonigle after he won the Arizona Fall League MVP. The No. 1 question: Will McGonigle make the 2026 Opening Day roster?
