Skubal Arbitration Showdown could redefine pitcher value in MLB

Tarik Skubal’s upcoming arbitration hearing, pitting his $32 million ask against the Tigers’ $19 million filing, is framed as a test of MLB’s norms. His team argues the two rare CBA provisions for five-plus years of service and special accomplishments allow comparisons beyond his immediate class, potentially aligning pitcher salaries with top earners who negotiated larger free-agent deals. The case highlights tensions between precedent and star-power bargaining and could influence future arbitration outcomes and Skubal’s future value in free agency if he remains healthy.
