Tigers join the battle for top free agent starting pitchers

Despite having Tarik Skubal as their ace, the Detroit Tigers could use another dominant arm for the 2026 season. They are expected to be major players for one of the top starting pitchers on the open market over the winter.

As it sits, Detroit could roll out Skubal, Jack Flaherty, Casey Mize, and Reese Olson, but has a clear need for a fifth starter. They could also use another pitcher they can depend on, as Flaherty and Mize had their fits of inconsistency in 2025.

Another consistent starter would bring the club that much closer to their World Series aspirations. And they have already been seen testing out the market during the GM Meetings.
