Including a game Sunday where he allowed one earned run and three hits against the Phillies in a complete game pitched and still lost

Bad part about it is the way MLB is set up he won’t be a free agent until 2029 or 2030 I believe

Pirates bought themselves an extra year with the call-up date last season. If they’d have had him on opening day roster he’d have been able to leave sooner

I'm thinking tommy John surgery in the next 1-3 years. rehab come back for some shitty months and then traded for prospects

Not many good Pitchers in the league. With so many changes done to mess up the game. We rarely see a Pitchers duel anymore.

It’s because the game has become a lot more reliever-oriented. And I mean the good teams go 3-4 deep and start putting them in in the 6th innings in important games or playoff games

The days of Jack Morris dueling John Smoltz into the 10th inning (1991 World Series 7th game) in the postseason are long gone

The other day I enjoyed watching Skubal vs Corbin. Corbin was awful last year with D backs. He's with Texas now.

Pirates GM shuts down Skenes trade talk

They could get such a haul for him though

Could totally change their franchise

Imagine getting to draft a once a decade or more pitcher like Skenes but still being so bad many wonder if you should trade him just a few years afterward

Lucky for him he won't be there long if he keeps it up, ask Gerrit Cole......If I were bro I would be pitching like Livies bleached anus depended on it (no way she not bleaching that duke hole when paul looks like a pep/saus pizza)
