Tarik Skubal's pitching led Tigers to playoff success
In 2024, the Detroit Tigers surprised many by making the playoffs, largely due to Tarik Skubal's exceptional pitching. He finished the season with 18 wins, a 2.39 ERA, and won the American League Cy Young Award. Jack Flaherty also contributed significantly after returning to the Tigers. He signed a one-year contract and posted a 2.95 ERA, showcasing a strong comeback after previous struggles. Looking ahead to 2025, the Tigers aim to build on their success with Skubal and Flaherty leading the pitching staff. Young talent Jackson Jobe may soon join the rotation, potentially strengthening the team further.
