However, despite these impressive moves, they are still just one blockbuster trade away from truly being in the conversation as a <strong data-start=\"480\" data-end=\"497\">top contender<\/strong> in Major League Baseball. A trade that could bring them to the next level has been proposed, with the Cubs looking to make a <strong data-start=\"623\" data-end=\"645\">game-changing move<\/strong> for <strong data-start=\"650\" data-end=\"707\">Detroit Tigers\u2019 two-time Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"710\" data-end=\"992\">This proposal comes from <strong data-start=\"735\" data-end=\"773\">Bleacher Report\u2019s Zachary D. Rymer<\/strong>, who suggests that the Cubs should engage in a high-stakes trade with the Tigers, sending a package centered around <strong data-start=\"890\" data-end=\"903\">Matt Shaw<\/strong>, the Cubs&#8217; highly promising young infielder, to Detroit in exchange for the ace pitcher.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"994\" data-end=\"1015\"><strong data-start=\"994\" data-end=\"1015\">The Deal in Focus<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1017\" data-end=\"1075\">Under the proposed trade scenario, the Cubs would receive:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1077\" data-end=\"1099\">\n<li data-start=\"1077\" data-end=\"1099\">\n<p data-start=\"1079\" data-end=\"1099\"><strong data-start=\"1079\" data-end=\"1099\">LHP Tarik Skubal<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"1101\" data-end=\"1137\">Meanwhile, the Tigers would receive:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1139\" data-end=\"1224\">\n<li data-start=\"1139\" data-end=\"1158\">\n<p data-start=\"1141\" data-end=\"1158\"><strong data-start=\"1141\" data-end=\"1158\">INF Matt Shaw<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1159\" data-end=\"1202\">\n<p data-start=\"1161\" data-end=\"1202\"><strong data-start=\"1161\" data-end=\"1182\">RHP Jaxon Wiggins<\/strong> (Ranked MLB No. 58)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1203\" data-end=\"1224\">\n<p data-start=\"1205\" data-end=\"1224\"><strong data-start=\"1205\" data-end=\"1224\">OF Ethan Conrad<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"1226\" data-end=\"1267\"><strong data-start=\"1226\" data-end=\"1267\">A Game-Changer for the Cubs&#8217; Rotation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1269\" data-end=\"1736\">According to Rymer, the Cubs have already been significant winners this offseason, but <strong data-start=\"1356\" data-end=\"1369\">right now<\/strong> they appear more <strong data-start=\"1387\" data-end=\"1419\">poised to win the NL Central<\/strong> rather than taking down powerhouses like the <strong data-start=\"1465\" data-end=\"1488\">Los Angeles Dodgers<\/strong>. The Cubs have made smart moves, but their rotation still lacks a definitive <strong data-start=\"1566\" data-end=\"1583\">No. 1 starter<\/strong>. Currently, there is no clear leader to take the top spot in the Cubs&#8217; rotation, and that\u2019s where <strong data-start=\"1682\" data-end=\"1692\">Skubal<\/strong> could dramatically change the conversation.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1738\" data-end=\"2326\">If the Cubs can land <strong data-start=\"1759\" data-end=\"1775\">Tarik Skubal<\/strong>, they would immediately elevate their <strong data-start=\"1814\" data-end=\"1832\">pitching staff<\/strong>. The left-hander, who has been nothing short of dominant over the past two seasons, would take the reins as <strong data-start=\"1941\" data-end=\"1958\">Chicago\u2019s ace<\/strong>, instantly transforming the Cubs&#8217; pitching staff into one that could rival the league\u2019s best. As Rymer points out, after the Cubs\u2019 starters struggled with a <strong data-start=\"2116\" data-end=\"2171\">strikeout rate of just 7.5 batters per nine innings<\/strong> in <strong data-start=\"2175\" data-end=\"2183\">2025<\/strong>, bringing in <strong data-start=\"2197\" data-end=\"2207\">Skubal<\/strong> would be a breath of fresh air, adding the strikeout power the Cubs desperately need for a potential deep October run.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1738\" data-end=\"2326\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/library.sportingnews.com\/styles\/crop_style_16_9_desktop_webp\/s3\/2025-12\/USATSI_27263387.jpg.webp?itok=ChVt-hA6\" alt=\"Proposed blockbuster Cubs trade sees Chicago deal Matt Shaw-based package  for $300 million two-time Cy Young | Sporting News\" \/><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2328\" data-end=\"2364\"><strong data-start=\"2328\" data-end=\"2364\">Skubal\u2019s Incredible Track Record<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2366\" data-end=\"3014\">In the <strong data-start=\"2373\" data-end=\"2388\">2025 season<\/strong>, Skubal posted an <strong data-start=\"2407\" data-end=\"2434\">outstanding 13-6 record<\/strong> with a <strong data-start=\"2442\" data-end=\"2454\">2.21 ERA<\/strong>, an astonishing <strong data-start=\"2471\" data-end=\"2489\">241 strikeouts<\/strong>, and a <strong data-start=\"2497\" data-end=\"2514\">WHIP of 0.891<\/strong> in <strong data-start=\"2518\" data-end=\"2533\">195 innings<\/strong> pitched. His dominance on the mound was recognized with <strong data-start=\"2590\" data-end=\"2622\">back-to-back Cy Young awards<\/strong>, making him not only a top-tier pitcher but also a <strong data-start=\"2674\" data-end=\"2703\">franchise-changing player<\/strong> who could anchor the Cubs&#8217; rotation for years to come. His ability to dominate on the mound would immediately make him <strong data-start=\"2823\" data-end=\"2865\">the leader of Chicago\u2019s pitching staff<\/strong>, providing the Cubs with a top-tier starter who can shut down offenses during the regular season and deliver when it matters most in the postseason.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3016\" data-end=\"3048\"><strong data-start=\"3016\" data-end=\"3048\">The Catch: Detroit&#8217;s Demands<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3050\" data-end=\"3437\">The one potential obstacle in this trade lies with the <strong data-start=\"3105\" data-end=\"3131\">Detroit Tigers\u2019 stance<\/strong> on trading <strong data-start=\"3143\" data-end=\"3153\">Skubal<\/strong>. The Tigers have made it clear that if they were to part ways with their ace, they would need a <strong data-start=\"3250\" data-end=\"3278\">proven MLB-ready pitcher<\/strong> to take his place in the rotation. Detroit is in a rebuilding phase, and adding a <strong data-start=\"3361\" data-end=\"3392\">young, controllable starter<\/strong> would be essential for them to move forward.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3439\" data-end=\"3920\">For the Cubs, this means they would likely have to include one of their star pitchers in the deal\u2014preferably one of their younger arms with control, which would give the Tigers a valuable asset for their future. <strong data-start=\"3651\" data-end=\"3668\">Jaxon Wiggins<\/strong>, the Cubs&#8217; <strong data-start=\"3680\" data-end=\"3710\">No. 58-ranked MLB prospect<\/strong>, could play a crucial role in making this deal work. Wiggins has already shown glimpses of his potential, and his inclusion in the deal could provide the Tigers with the type of young arm they are looking for.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3439\" data-end=\"3920\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/uu\/api\/res\/1.2\/7of7_1dxmTuJFp18HgJfUA--~B\/aD0yMDQyO3c9MzA2MzthcHBpZD15dGFjaHlvbg--\/https:\/\/d29szjachogqwa.cloudfront.net\/images\/2026-01\/14842a91-4705-4955-909d-29408c0a9f0e.cf.webp\" alt=\"Proposed blockbuster Cubs trade sees Chicago deal Matt Shaw-based package  for $300 million two-time Cy Young - Yahoo Sports\" \/><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3922\" data-end=\"3964\"><strong data-start=\"3922\" data-end=\"3964\">Why This Deal Makes Sense for the Cubs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3966\" data-end=\"4423\">If the Cubs can strike a deal with the Tigers, it would significantly <strong data-start=\"4036\" data-end=\"4076\">boost their championship aspirations<\/strong>. Skubal\u2019s presence would give the Cubs a <strong data-start=\"4118\" data-end=\"4130\">true ace<\/strong> to lead their staff, something that would make them formidable contenders in the <strong data-start=\"4212\" data-end=\"4231\">National League<\/strong>. The Cubs have already made significant upgrades this offseason, including adding key offensive pieces and improving their bullpen, but adding <strong data-start=\"4375\" data-end=\"4385\">Skubal<\/strong> would make them a more complete team.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4425\" data-end=\"4882\">One of the key areas where the Cubs would benefit from this trade is the <strong data-start=\"4498\" data-end=\"4521\">strikeout potential<\/strong> that Skubal brings. His <strong data-start=\"4546\" data-end=\"4572\">high strikeout numbers<\/strong> over the past two seasons demonstrate his ability to <strong data-start=\"4626\" data-end=\"4646\">dominate hitters<\/strong>, and that\u2019s something that the Cubs\u2019 pitching staff has lacked. In a division where the competition is tough and the stakes are high, having a pitcher who can go toe-to-toe with the best in the league is crucial for any postseason run.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4884\" data-end=\"4932\"><strong data-start=\"4884\" data-end=\"4932\">What\u2019s at Stake: Cubs\u2019 Window of Opportunity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4934\" data-end=\"5375\">The Cubs\u2019 <strong data-start=\"4944\" data-end=\"4969\">window of opportunity<\/strong> is now. With the roster in place and the front office making aggressive moves this offseason, the time is right for the Cubs to go all-in. Their offense, led by key players like <strong data-start=\"5148\" data-end=\"5164\">Seiya Suzuki<\/strong>, <strong data-start=\"5166\" data-end=\"5178\">Ian Happ<\/strong>, and <strong data-start=\"5184\" data-end=\"5202\">Cody Bellinger<\/strong>, has the potential to be among the league&#8217;s best. However, to truly compete with the <strong data-start=\"5288\" data-end=\"5312\">top teams in the MLB<\/strong>, they need a <strong data-start=\"5326\" data-end=\"5342\">top-tier ace<\/strong> to lead the charge on the mound.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5377\" data-end=\"5713\">A <strong data-start=\"5379\" data-end=\"5399\">trade for Skubal<\/strong> would give the Cubs a legitimate chance to compete for a <strong data-start=\"5457\" data-end=\"5479\">World Series title<\/strong> in the coming seasons. His dominance on the mound would complement their already talented lineup, and with the Cubs looking to make a deep postseason run, having a <strong data-start=\"5644\" data-end=\"5663\">Cy Young winner<\/strong> on the roster would give them the edge they need.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5715\" data-end=\"5747\"><strong data-start=\"5715\" data-end=\"5747\">Detroit\u2019s Rebuilding Efforts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"5749\" data-end=\"6155\">For the Tigers, moving Skubal might make sense if they can land a <strong data-start=\"5815\" data-end=\"5835\">promising return<\/strong> that helps accelerate their rebuilding efforts. <strong data-start=\"5884\" data-end=\"5897\">Matt Shaw<\/strong>, the Cubs\u2019 rising star, is a versatile infielder with the potential to be a cornerstone of Detroit\u2019s future. Shaw, alongside Wiggins and Conrad, would give the Tigers a <strong data-start=\"6067\" data-end=\"6085\">strong package<\/strong> of young talent that could help them retool and build for the future.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"6157\" data-end=\"6456\">The Tigers are looking for players who can make an immediate impact and help them in the near term, while also adding long-term assets to their roster. This trade could help them continue their rebuild with players like Shaw, who could eventually become a key contributor to the team in a few years.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"6458\" data-end=\"6477\"><strong data-start=\"6458\" data-end=\"6477\">The Bottom Line<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"6479\" data-end=\"6958\">As the Cubs continue to position themselves as contenders in the National League, <strong data-start=\"6561\" data-end=\"6587\">acquiring Tarik Skubal<\/strong> would be the final piece of the puzzle. With his proven track record as a two-time <strong data-start=\"6671\" data-end=\"6690\">Cy Young winner<\/strong> and his ability to dominate on the mound, Skubal would instantly elevate the Cubs&#8217; pitching staff and make them a more complete team. If the Cubs can get this deal done, they would be <strong data-start=\"6875\" data-end=\"6895\">ready to contend<\/strong> not just for the NL Central but for a <strong data-start=\"6934\" data-end=\"6950\">World Series<\/strong> title.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"6479\" data-end=\"6958\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.newsweek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/2673489-chicago-cubs-infielder-matt-shaw.jpg\" alt=\"Cubs' Short-Term Matt Shaw Replacement Could Already Be In Their Sights -  Newsweek\" \/><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"6960\" data-end=\"7239\">But with the <strong data-start=\"6973\" data-end=\"6992\">Tigers\u2019 demands<\/strong> for a proven MLB-ready pitcher in return, the Cubs must be strategic in their approach.
