The Los Angeles Dodgers made one of the biggest trade deadline moves in baseball by acquiring ace Tarik Skubal from the Detroit Tigers, and the left-hander makes his Dodgers debut on Tuesday when Los Angeles visits the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. Skubal arrives with a 7-5 record, a 2.79 ERA, a 0.91 WHIP, and 116 strikeouts across 96.2 innings. The Dodgers (69-43) are the best team in baseball and have gone 36-20 on the road this season. The Cubs (63-49) counter with Javier Assad (6-1, 3.75 ERA).
First pitch from Wrigley Field is set for 8:05 p.m. ET. Los Angeles is -192 on the money line (risk $192 to win $100) in the latest Dodgers vs. Cubs odds, with Chicago at +171.
