Detroit Tigers ace lefty Tarik Skubal may have delivered his signature start under the spotlight on Sunday. However, in continuing a trend seen around the majors this year, Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said after the game that it may be Skubal's final start on regular rest this season.
“He’s the best pitcher in the game right now ... It’s not fun facing a guy like that, but it’s fun competing against the best,” said Judge, the AL MVP favourite, after the loss against Skubal.
"We’re controlling the things we can control. He continues to go out and dominate, continues to put in good effort between starts. We’re giving him extra rest ... But he’s done the work." Crochet, meanwhile, is already playing with a heavy innings limit for Chicago since the beginning of July. Skenes holds an ERA of 2.30 with 121 strikeouts in 98.0 innings this season, and is currently the favourite on FanDuel to take home the NL Rookie of the Year award.The 22-year-old phenom who routinely touches 100mph with his fastball has thrown 125.1 innings between Triple-A and the majors this year, and Pittsburgh could opt to play it safe with their prized pitcher.
