MINNEAPOLIS — The Detroit Tigers didn't move left-hander Tarik Skubal to a different team before Tuesday's trade deadline, but on Wednesday, the Tigers moved the 25-year-old to the injured list with left arm fatigue.
But really, Skubal is dealing with inflammation in his left forearm.
"We just have to be very, very conservative with these arm injuries," manager A.J. Hinch said. "This one is alarming because it's Tarik Skubal and what he means to the rotation, to the organization. There's no sense in pushing him until he's completely asymptomatic and not feeling the tightness that he's feeling.
