The Los Angeles Dodgers have been rumored to be making attempts to try to trade for the Detroit Tigers ace, Tarik Skubal. A trade like this would completely drain their farm system, likely requiring their top two prospects, Josue De Paula and Dalton Rushing among other prospects too. They would be adding the best pitcher in baseball right now, but these rumors are still a longshot.
If these ideas fall through and the Dodgers can’t land Skubal, they could always fall back on another Tigers pitcher, this one much cheaper, being Jack Flaherty.
Flaherty, though not on the same level as Skubal, is on an expiring deal and would be much cheaper to trade for. The Dodgers could likely pull him away for a few middle of the road prospects.
Flaherty, 28, has a 2.95 ERA on the season following a magnificent six inning performance against the first place Cleveland Guardians on Wednesday night. On a lot of teams this season, Flaherty would be an ace. He just happens to pitch for the same team as the most dominant pitcher in the game.
