Brewers trade prediction with Mets is backup plan if they don't land Tarik Skubal

The Milwaukee Brewers could use an addition to their starting rotation before the postseason. Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal is the top name that could be moved at the trade deadline, and the Brewers could be one of several clubs involved in the sweepstakes. If Skubal ends up elsewhere, Milwaukee's front office will have to pivot to a backup plan, which we're assuming it has one. That could lead to a trade with the New York Mets for one of their impending free agents. The right-hander is very familiar with the NL Central organization.
