Baseball’s trade deadline has dramatically reshaped the playoff picture, with the Dodgers making the loudest move by prying two-time reigning AL Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal from Detroit, a statement addition to a rotation under strain and a fresh reminder of Los Angeles’s October ambitions. The Tigers, conceding their ace, collect a prospect package headlined by Zyhir Hope, River Ryan and Brady Smith. Chicago also moved aggressively, landing Luis Castillo from Seattle to reinforce a White Sox club suddenly in the AL Central race just a year after 102 losses. Away from baseball, concern overshadowed the ring in Dublin, where Irish boxer Lee Reeves was hospitalized in critical but stable condition after a 10th-round knockout loss to Gary Cully. In MLS, Lionel Messi returned from his post-World Cup break as Inter Miami’s six-match winning streak ended in a 2-2 draw with Columbus.
