**Podcast Summary:**The Yankees and Tigers are reportedly in talks for a potential trade involving left-hander Tarik Skubal, as the Tigers struggle to reach a long-term contract with him. If the Tigers can't sign Skubal, trading him to the Yankees could be their best option. For the Yankees, acquiring Skubal would significantly boost their rotation, potentially creating a dominant pitching staff reminiscent of the 1971 Orioles. However, the trade would likely require surrendering top prospects and could strain the Yankees' payroll. The Yankees are also considering other options, like pursuing players like Cody Bellinger or Kyle Tucker. Despite the risks and costs, a trade for Skubal remains a possibility, as the Yankees are known for making bold moves.
