Tarik Skubal is making it really obvious that he loves Detroit. He told everyone exactly where his loyalties lie at the GM Meetings, in the days leading up to his second Cy Young win. He posted a video of Comerica Park captioned "missing home" on Instagram. And, this past weekend, he ran the gauntlet of Michigan sports.
The guy was everywhere. On Saturday, he showed up to do the t-shirt toss at a Michigan State basketball game, then went down to see the Pistons on the same day. On Sunday it was a Red Wings game and then a Lions game, and he was greeted with thunderous applause everywhere he went.
