The trade chatter surrounding Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal, the two-time Cy Young winner, is right back in the headlines after a viral run-in with a Yankees fan sparked fresh speculation. The incident came when a Yankees fan approached Skubal for an autograph on a navy blue Yankees cap. Instead of smiling for the camera and playing along, Skubal delivered the kind of blunt rejection that spreads across Instagram in seconds: "That's not my hat," he said, pushing the cap away before adding, "Get out of here."

1+ day, 1+ hour ago (358+ words) The Pittsburgh Pirates have maintained that they want to spend money this offseason, a stark change for a franchise that rarely opens its wallet. As of right now, the largest free-agent contract the Pirates have ever signed was the three-year, $39 million deal it handed pitcher Francisco Liriano a decade ago. But with Pittsburgh facing pressure to increase its payroll due to revenue sharing, not to mention Paul Skenes making it clear he wants to see some improvement, the Pirates may ultimately end up shattering their previous record this winter.
