It is news that the Los Angeles Dodgers, the defending champion for the second consecutive year, are aiming for the best starting pitcher in the world, Detroit Tigers Tarik Scubal.
Columnist Jim Borden, a former general manager of the local media The Athletic, said on the 6th (Korea time) that the Tigers are expected to give up the Scubal to the Dodgers and trade for starters Tyler Glasnow and Emmett Sianne and outfielder Zahier Hope in an article titled `10 big trades I want to see.'
Of course, it's just a prediction. However, given that the Major League Winter Meeting in Orlando, Florida, from the 8th to the 11th is a stage where a trade can be made or at least full-fledged with a large FA contract, it is unlikely that Skubal, which has been widely rumored to be traded, will be transferred in a surprise move.

Glasnow signed a five-year, $135.65 million extension contract when it moved to the Dodgers through a trade in December 2023, leaving three years to go. He did not complete the full season due to injuries in two years with the Dodgers, but he posted a 3.37 ERA in 40 games-224 ⅓ innings, and this year's postseason showed an ace-class presence by pitching an ERA of 1.69 in six games. It means he can take the first and second starters in Detroit.

Local media 'Detroit Prepress' reported on Oct. 21 that there are a few scenarios for Tiger or Skubal to choose from. The Tigers trade Scoobull this winter, make him the most expensive pitcher in history, or just sign a one-year contract, saying that Scoobull agent Scott Boras is famous for waiting for his client to become an FA. It was expected to be the first scooped trade released by a leading local media outlet.
Then, two days later, MLB.com reported that the 'Scoobal trade' will shake the Major League Baseball. The trade basis was specifically stated in an article titled 'Introducing the terms of the settlement. The media presented two things as a basis for the trade.
In the sense that Scooge will become an FA in a year, this off-season is tradeable, and Detroit does not have the financial capacity to pay for Scooge's ransom, which will soar to hundreds of millions of dollars, so it will eventually be put on the market. At that time, MLB.com also presented a scenario that the Dodgers would be active enough to allow the Dodgers to give up Loki Sasaki.

The estimated ransom of Scubal, who will turn 30 at the end of next year, is more than $300 million. In terms of total value, it is never behind New York Yankees Gerrit Cole ($324 million for nine years) and Dodgers Yoshinobu Yamamoto ($325 million for 12 years). Detroit offered Skubal a four-year, $100 million extension late last year, but was rejected.
The Detroit Free Press reports that `Scoobal's agent believes his value is more than $400 million in the FA market, and Detroit will be able to offer about $300 million.' The $400 million is realistic for Scoobal. When asked in a podcast in June how about $425 million (about 610 billion won) for 10 years, Scubal laughed and replied that it was a pleasant condition' he said.
Detroit, which has never exceeded $200 million in payrolls, has no choice but to give up the scoop.
Scubal is a candidate to be evaluated as the biggest fish in the FA market after next season, and won the AL Cy Young Award this year following last year. In 31 games, he pitched 195 ⅓ innings, marking 13-6, 2.21 ERA, 241 strikeouts, WHIP 0.89, and a batting average of 0.200, all of which were better than last year.
