WASHINGTON, D.C. — Left-hander Tarik Skubal traveled with the Detroit Tigers for a road trip for the first time since the season-opening series against the Tampa Bay Rays coming out of spring training.
Joining the Tigers for the road trip means Skubal appears almost ready to face hitters for the first time since Aug. 1, 2022, when he exited his most recent MLB start with an arm injury that led to flexor tendon surgery.
"I think it does mean that," Skubal said. "I'm progressing the right way."
"We'll see," said Tigers manager A.
