Jon Heyman Rivals wary of Dodgers’ true interest in Tarik Skubal at trade deadline By Jon Heyman Published July 12, 2026, 10:13 p.m. ET Rivals worry that the Dodgers might be underselling their interest in Tarik Skubal.
Dodgers people have suggested they have limited interest in Skubal since Blake Snell and Tyler Glasnow are working their way back to join their three All-Star starters: Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Justin Wrobleski.
However, the Dodgers are not only the best team in the majors, they also boast the top prospect group and spare no expense. Of course, there’s no guarantee with Snell or Glasnow, either.
