With the MLB pitching market exploding, could Tarek Skubal command a record-breaking deal to stay with the Detroit Tigers?

Key topics include the Tigers’ offseason priorities, the implications of big spending on Skubal’s future, and what recent reliever signings mean for Detroit’s bullpen strategy. Scott Bentley breaks down the Tigers’ minor-league signings, hands out praise for young players earning pre-arbitration bonuses, and examines Matt Manning’s shift to the KBO. With winter meetings and the Rule 5 draft on the horizon, find out what’s next for the Tigers as they look to build a contender in a rapidly changing baseball landscape.
