Injury
The Tigers starter returns to a Cy Young race still within reach despite the lost time.
Tarik Skubal has returned to action after missing nearly six weeks with injury. The Tigers' ace comes back to a 3–2, 2.70 ERA line over seven starts and 43.1 innings, putting him within striking distance of the American League Cy Young conversation despite the gap in his availability.
Skubal's durability over the remainder of the season will shape how much ground he can reclaim. The AL field remains open at the midyear mark, and a healthy stretch run could restore him as a factor in the award race.
