He didn't have that splitter at LSU. He was unreal without it scary to think how dominant he will be with that new pitch.

Striking out 11 batters in only your 2nd start is insane

Man, looks like the Yankees will be paying this dude $400 million to be the ACE of there rotation in 7 years.

This kid is either going to be out of the league after a few years due to injuries like Mark Prior and Stephen Strasburg or be the next Randy Johnson and Nolan Ryan.

His fastball moves A LOT, let's hope he stays healthy.

Everybody who’s saying he’ll be injured hasn’t followed the guys career. Your witnessing the real deal

He's legit a combination of clemens and Verlander. The dude has special stuff. Guys like him only come around, maybe once every two or three DECADES.

If i could turn into a supporting ligament just to support his elbow, I gladly would. This man can TOSS. Lol

Fantastic- the precision of his fastball- unreal

This guy looks effortless throwing the ball out there.

Cubs looking like a little league team right now😭

I can't believe how many people slept on him in Fantasy baseball. I have him on all 3 of my teams. 😂😂

Electric like Mason Miller but he’s a starter…just filthy stuff

I'd be interested to hear Pedro Martinez on his pitching mechanic.

Wow... just wow... So excited about this kid

He’s a leg pitcher. Less risk of arm injuries.

Thank you for putting this together

I watched Skenes pitch in person at LSU,ive never seen stuff like this before

I never thought I'd see a pitcher for the Pirates this good. I hope they don't trade him. The Pirates tend to trade their best players and they sometimes end up in a world series for another team. The fans could use a break from that.

I see a lot of ppl talking about him blowing out his arm because of throwing such high heat. But hes not a pure heat pitcher. He HAS that heat and uses it, but most of his pitches he throws are offspeed. He does that because with such a fast fastball, they have to either sit and wait on the fastball or hope its the right offspeed pitch you think hes going to throw. If he throws the opposite, goodluck adjusting to it because you wont.

Great control with speed. Impressive.

Appreciate his greatness! Geaux Tigers!

Que movimiento tan espectacular tiene la recta de este muchacho miren como rompe esa recta a 100 millas

What's really impressive about this kid is not only is his stuff nasty, but he mixes his pitches well and keeps hitters guessing, very impressive. Only thing im worried about is just like DeGrom, Strider and lots of these other hard throwers injuries might unfortunately catch up to him, I hope not.

I watched this game and the cubs who have a decent hitting team were just fanning on his fast balls … dominating stuff…he’s going to be fun to watch 👍

Imma Rangers fan from Tx. but I am gonna keep my eye on him and try and catch some games with him on the mound. Very exciting to watch. Hope he does really well in the MLB.

He seems to effortlessly throw serious gas and that splitter is just sick. Love it!

His pitching motion seems nice & easy, doesn’t look like he is straining to throw hard. A lot of movement on all his pitches, very very impressive. Hope a talent like this has a long and healthy career!

⛈️⚡🌩️⚡ he remind me a young mighty Roger - the rocket - Clemens 👀👀👀 the sound of the baseball when hit the catcher mitts is his awesome 🔥🔥 .

Bro, i watched him while he was at LSU. Bro is f'n daaaangerous. His pitch speed/ball placement is ridiculous. He's built different. I'm surprised he didn't start as soon as he was drafted.

Paul Skene reminds me of Matt Harvey came into the league throwing extremely hard lots of hype

That’s a lot of movement on that fastball. Wow.

Seems like only yesterday I was watching this guy in the college world series

This is strike out machine 🔥

A very fluid motion... looks pretty hitch-free... arm angle also looks to maximize lateral torso torque, especially with that near side-arm slot. That movement is SICK... I wonder what his spin rate is on his pitches...

The movement on his 100mph pitches is crazy.

7 strike outs here in Los Angeles is a free jumbo jack everyday the Dodgers get 7 Ks. We get lots a free jumbo jacks lol! Congrats to Mr. Skenes. I wouldnt be surprised if he isnt a Dodger in the future

Nolan Ryan is back

The splitter or splinker at 94-96 is a pure weapon. Wow does it move late. Hitters won’t be ready if he has fastball command

If it weren't for that battle with Busch and some...questionable umpiring, he could have easily gone 7 innings today instead of 6. Fantastic stuff!

Never seen anything like this in a long time.

Skenes and Sasaki, 2 of the best young pitchers in the world. Can't wait for Sasaki to get in to the big leagues.

He has a smooth delivery. Non-violent. He has pitched like this his whole life. He is very durable. He will be around a long time

This dude is a STUD!

That Splinker is a nasty pitch. Dang.

what pitch is thrown at 10:19 for a ball? that thing is all over the place. would be neat if he could throw it far out to the right then just clip the inside corner for a K

On the 6th ķ missed a perfect opportunity to say 'Better call Paul' that's all

This pitcher will be "thee pitcher" to watch for a long time coming.

That splinker pitch is absolute filth. 95-96 mph with a short quick drop. Looks damn near unhittable.

Just wowie!!!!!!!

The only thing more beautiful than Paul's pitching today is that he was in my FBB starting rotation.

he's the real deal

Him striking people out and laughing at them is great. Skenes is great for baseball. Tossing a 100 plus and knowing it isn't fair and laughing at your struggling opposition is next level!

Crazy. Gotta wait at least until his second time through the league though. Those big league hitters are pretty good.

good gods above how does he throw pitches that fast with that much movement?!

This guy definitely has the stuff to be one of the best in the game. Needs to mix in more off speed to complement the velo and he better figure out how to keep it down in the zone. It’s going to be interesting to see how he adapts once hitters start to figure him out.

Every pitch he has is absolutely filthy

He is pitching great. Also the more the seethe better they will get at hitting him.

Paul skenes is so exciting. I don’t wanna be weird but damn.

I'd be absolutely crushing it too if I were coming home to that....

I’m telling you man, Skenes

Pittsburgh always getting high caliber pitchers good job

It's crazy he is to think that giant man is 21....what?!?

Skenes vs Ohtani would be awesome matchup

ty mlb

Coach O says git it baw! Ya think ya kno spicy wi commin

There was absolutely no need for this video to be 14 minutes

I saw a young "Strasburg" again as I thought. Keep healthy for a long career.

He looks like he short arms his pitch. Doesn't extend his arm. Hope he stays healthy

The Gland Man has got the juice! 💯

Cant believe they pulled him and the reliever immediately threw a hit. Idc if its 45 to 0 with 120 pitches in the 7th, you dont pull a pitcher on a no hitter.

he has a splinker, curve ball, slider and 100mph 4-seamer 😲

5th battery foul tip was the first contact

There are forces at work in this video lol

He's maybe the best pitcher i've ever seen. Velocity, good break ,control and mental toughness.

That was definitely a swing from Happ.

Nasty!!

Bro this man will be unfair

I think the velo is just natural for him

Real Nuke Laloosh vibes from this dude.

Its a splitter not a splinker. Young roger clemens. Hopefully he stays healthy

He almost had a perfect 6 innings 😩 so close

If this guy can develop a solid changeup, my God he would be devastating.

You can see how he wasn’t celebrating. Old guys knows he throws gas and will be good, they’re waiting for him to show some cockiness

Through four batters they haven't even made contact

I really wish MLB managers would let pitchers pitch complete games. It’s taken one of the most exciting parts of the game away. If Nolan Ryan could handle 300 innings a season, and pitch into his 40’s, these pitchers can handle at least 8. Especially with the training and diet they get these days.

It hurts my arm just watching him throw so fast constantly on this pitch clock.

Yooo playing I'm a survivor by Destiny's Child @ 13:10 because he keeps fouling the ball off is hilarious 😂 😂 😂 😂

Spencer Strider look-alike!

I’ve only done this on MLB the show…on rookie difficulty…

Winning on and off the field

たまにではなく常に100マイルはエグい😱

Skeens is awesome really hope pirates can keep him smh

He better keep the consistency up throughout his career and worry less about the speeds he throws but he’s the real deal, I like the confidence he’s got coming into the league and he’ll get humbled a ton but he’ll definitely be a head turner every time he plays. That splitter is wack, good luck hitting that any day of the week. 😮 no thanks

The teams don’t have a lot of data on him yet. He will be good but eventually film study will allow hitters to learn his patterns and giveaways

He will quickly make a great player on another team.

Im sorry Splinker is just too funny a name for a pitch 😂

Future Hall of Famer ....... you heard it here first ... with that delivery I predict no shoulder or elbow problems ...

えっぐいてー！！！

We’re going to need a better catcher if we’re gonna be able to utilize his movement
