If he keeps up this pace, imagine what kind of money Paul Skenes will get when he becomes a free agent. The Pirates better keep him locked up as soon as they can.

@Zaximillian 27 күн бұрын

It's not hate. The Pittsburgh Pirates will NEVER retain a star of any kind for any major MLB amount of money. It's the cheapo, revenue sharing, laugh to the bank Pirates' owner Bob "Nothing" that makes the Pirates a forever placeholder as nothing more than a rich man's toy. Right now, Skenes puts butts in seats, and Bobby Boy loves that. It's a bonus for him. It's not baseball. If I'm Skenes' agent, I am absolutely telling him this so he can be paid accordingly by a franchise that actually gives a damn.

@johnvillella1087 27 күн бұрын

To all those who hated on him saying “he’ll blow his arm out”, we’re gladly waiting on it. Ps if you watching his Form, he builds so much torque in his legs, waist and back that his arms just add to the pitch, they aren’t the main force behind his velocity. 13:01 So if he ever needs TJ, it’ll never end him for good.

@Chariercha 27 күн бұрын

The arm is never the main force, power always comes from the legs. The problem is that the power generated puts an enormous amount of stress on the elbow.

@nicholasgiampetro782 27 күн бұрын

The energy generated by the body still travels through the arm to the ball though so the UCL feels it regardless of which muscles are providing the energy.

Very impressive, very. I’m just cautiously optimistic because we’ve seen so many power pitchers break down by their early 30s. I just don’t have confidence that the human arm can withstand the torque and stress from throwing that hard for 15-20 years without it breaking down. There’s limitations the human body can handle.
