The Detroit Tigers did not conduct a trade deadline fire sale in 2026, but they traded their two best pitchers. Tarik Skubal is a Los Angeles Dodger, and Casey Mize will join him in the NL playoff race down the stretch. At the trade deadline buzzer, Scott Harris traded Mize to the San Diego Padres for top prospect Kash Mayfield. The full trade also included infielder Gage Workman going to San Diego and minor league arm Jackson Wolf headed to Detroit. Meanwhile, the Tigers are looking toward the future as Max Clark's promotion has lit a fire under the offense and Harris' prospect acquisitions have replenished the farm nicely.
