Tarik Skubal's early success on the mound makes him top pitching option for Detroit Tigers

CLEVELAND — Left-hander Tarik Skubal, the only healthy starter remaining from the Detroit Tigers' Opening Day roster, has been one of the best pitchers in the American League this month.

In four starts, the 25-year-old has a 0.75 ERA with five walks and 30 strikeouts over 24 innings, facing the Houston Astros, Oakland Athletics, Baltimore Orioles and Cleveland Guardians. Skubal will make one more start in May: Thursday against the Guardians at Comerica Park.
