Could the Detroit Tigers Be Quietly Poised to Dominate the American League?
Led by 2024 AL Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal, Detroit has one of the best starting staffs in baseball. The Tigers currently rank third in baseball with a 3.09 starter ERA, and it’s not just Skubal shouldering the load. Former No. 1 pick Casey Mize has finally shown the promise that Detroit saw when they made him their first selection in 2018. Mize, now 27, is 4-1 with a 2.12 ERA so far this season.
Skubal, for his part, has a 2.34 ERA and 40 strikeouts in 34 ⅔ innings. Every member of the Tigers’ rotation, which includes Skubal, Mize, Jack Flaherty, Reese Olson and rookie Jackson Jobe, has an ERA under 4.00.
