Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal, the two-time defending American League Cy Young Award winner, filed for a record $32 million in salary arbitration for the 2026 season, while the Tigers countered with $19 million. This $13 million gap marks the largest in arbitration history. The filing came after the two sides failed to agree before Thursday's deadline, setting up a potential hearing.
Wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk and the San Francisco 49ers appear headed for a divorce just 15 months after signing a four-year, $120 million extension. The team has voided his 2026 contract guarantees amid frustrations over his absences and lack of communication. Aiyuk, sidelined by a knee injury, has not played this season and is likely to be released at the end of the year.
