🚨 Breaking Mariners Rumor: ESPN’s Buster Olney reports that the Mariners are one of the top teams interested in acquiring Tigers ace Tarik Skubal this winter. Ty Dane Gonzalez and Colby Patnode break down what it would take to land one of the best pitchers in baseball, possible trade scenarios, and why the Tigers might actually move their star despite their postseason window. 

🏟️ AL West Trade Preview: Are there trade fits on the Oakland A’s (or should we say Sacramento Athletics)? Brent Rooker, JJ Bleday, and some intriguing bullpen arms are discussed. 

Could the Mariners and Astros possibly match up? Not likely—but what about a surprise move with a player like Isaac Paredes?
