From what I've read, the Brewers have a plethora of great young talent coming up soon. Would they realistically part with some of them for Skubal? 

Obviously not Made. Hopefully not Fischer. They should call Fischer up if they get Skubal. They aren't going to win a series against the Dodgers if they aren't scoring more than 4 runs in it, and they won't with this lineup. Fischer mashes everywhere he plays.

They should've left Pratt down and let everyone think he was something other than Joey Ortiz 2.0 and included him in a Skubal package.

Hmmm....okay.  I'll take your word here.

There's a reason Fischer was slower to get to AA. He has the splits of Joey Gallo. His power is tantalizing, but he won't be show ready for a bit

Marlins starter Eury Perez had a perfect game through 7 innings yesterday, and his team led the A's 8-0. But it was only his third start back from the IL (leg strain), and team officials had decided beforehand that he would throw only about 90 pitches. So even though he was still firing it 98 mph and was in total command, Perez was pulled after 92 pitches by manager Clayton McCullough.

The Marlins have been one of MLB's surprise teams - they're tied with St. Louis for the last NL wild-card spot - and McCullough said he was thinking about both the team's postseason aspirations and Perez's long-term health.

FWIW, the Marlins almost blew the lead after Perez was pulled, winning 9-8.
