The Cubs have made no secret of their desire to add starting pitching and are at least checking in on the top of the market. Patrick Mooney of The Athletic reports that the Cubs have considered making a push for Tarik Skubal among their various rotation possibilities. Skubal made what might be his final start in a Tigers uniform on Wednesday. Skubal zipped through six scoreless innings but ran into trouble in the seventh. All three of those teams are winning their respective divisions and currently in position to secure a first-round bye.
