In my personal opinion, the Tigers should not trade Skubal.

They have to decide if they actually want to try to win with Skubal. Of course, that would require being aggressive which Scott Harris has been anything but during his tenure.
I said a while ago I'd have Skubal on the block because there's no way they're gonna sign him long term and that's the clearest way to getting a Major League caliber lineup on the field.
Baltimore has bats out the ass they could afford to trade for Skubal and not miss a beat.
I definitely agree that I would do it before this deadline versus later if that's the direction they choose.
