Tarik Skubal, the reigning two-time American League Cy Young winner, is on the move. According to a source cited by MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand, the Detroit Tigers have agreed to send Skubal to the Los Angeles Dodgers in exchange for three prospects The move makes Skubal just the sixth reigning Cy Young winner to be traded during his award-winning season, joining names like Justin Verlander and Cliff Lee. He and Shohei Ohtani also will become the first teammates to simultaneously be wearing the Gold Logoman Patches on the back of their Jerseys.

Skubal set an MLB arbitration record earlier this year with a $32 million ruling and is expected to test free agency after the season. Detroit moved him now, even as he’s continued to pitch like an ace, racking up double-digit strikeout outings since returning from a minor elbow procedure in June. For collectors who have followed his autographs and patch cards since his 2020 Bowman Chrome debut, a trade of this size is a good moment to check where his card values currently stand.
