Tarik Skubal is still in Triple Crown territory (leading one's league in wins, ERA and strikeouts) and the Tigers are back in the win column after the lefty dominated the Rangers in a 2-1 victory Sunday at Globe Life Field.

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — It was naturally a superb start by Tarik Skubal that resulted in a 2-1 Detroit Tigers win over the Texas Rangers on Sunday night that ended a season-worst six-game losing streak for the team with the best record in the major leagues. However, Skubal didn’t get credit for the victory.

According to ESPN’s Buster Olney, Skubal is on track to command a deal worth as much as $400 million once he hits the open market. Olney pointed to three franchises with the financial muscle and competitive appeal to land him: the New York Yankees, Los Angeles Dodgers, and New York Mets.
