00:00Heading into the season for the Detroit Tigers, I said to myself,
00:02boy, you get these two guys, talking about Frambois Valdez and Tarek Skubal,
00:06to the playoffs as a one-two punch.
00:08Good luck trying to beat them.
00:09Now, the question for the Detroit Tigers is,
00:11will you still have that one-two punch come playoff time?
00:14But if you are looking for this tweet from Jeff Passan,
00:16if there maybe is a lining that says, hey, silver lining through, this will be okay.
00:21Tarek Skubal undergoes surgery to remove loose bodies in his left elbow.
00:25Typically takes two to three months of recovery time.
00:27He should be there for season's end.
00:29But, Craig, we don't know how the elbow's going to respond.
00:31We don't know how this is going to play out here.
00:33But one of the guys looking to win another Cy Young is not going to win it this year, Craig.
00:38No, he's not.
00:39And obviously, I'm rooting for him to come back healthy.
00:42And I want to see him get a mega deal and sign or sign with either the Tigers or somewhere
00:47else.
00:48But we do have to be realistic with this and hope that he just is able to finish well
00:52and maybe get his team into the postseason.
00:54But beyond that, Donnie, you're 100% right.
00:56He's not winning the Cy Young, which brings up the conversation of who is going to be the Cy Young
01:01Award winner this year.
01:03And I do have some thoughts on this, too, that I do want to ask you about this, actually, Donnie,
01:08which is as follows.
01:09Sam, throw up the Cy Young Award odds here for a minute.
01:13Oh, you don't have it.
01:14OK, my bad.
01:16Cam Schlittler, Donnie, is currently the favorite.
01:18So here's my honest question to you.
01:21If Cam Schlittler was on the Royals, would he be favored to win the American League Cy Young?
01:26Just honest question.
01:27Like, to me, I think we're paying a big Yankees tax on this player in particular.
01:31Cam Schlittler.
