Skaggs has been scratched from his scheduled start Wednesday due to forearm tightness, Pedro Moura of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

He threw six scoreless innings while allowing just two hits, walking four and striking out eight in his last start, so this was quite unexpected. Jhoulys Chacin will get the start in his stead. Skaggs will undergo an MRI Wednesday, and considering he had Tommy John surgery in August of 2014, this is awfully concerning. The Angels are out of contention and Skaggs is one of the organization's few prized assets, so even though they are really hurting for rotation depth, it would not be surprising if they shut Skaggs down, regardless of the results of the MRI.
