Skenes received a standing ovation last week on the road in St Louis after they pulled him in the 6th inning.

Hope somehow he doesn’t follow so many others …… Syndergaard, Strasburg, DeGrom, Harvey, Wood. Seems hard to believe he won’t succumb to some major issue.

Skenes superfractor owner is prob laughing all the way to the bank.
He can mostly likely get $250-300k right now for that card. He should definitely sell.

I'd do it fast before his elbow explodes and he doesn't step onto a major league field for a year.

Hopefully that doesn’t happen. Hope you would agree. He’s great for baseball.

Of course I hope it doesn’t happen. But how long can you throw 100mph for as a starter before it does? It feels inevitable to me.

Yep, his elbow explodes and then Olivia Dunne dumps him for somebody else. That'll be like shooting him twice and he might not recover from it.

Lots of haters in here. Skenes will be one of the most dominant pitchers to ever play by the end of his career. I've watched him pitch many times (LSU baseball season tickets) and he makes it look completely effortless.

Plus, he's a good guy. Wore #20 at LSU to honor one of his former AF teammates who was killed in a training accident. He also is involved in veterans charities like Folds of Honor. I look forward to watching him dominate MLB for the next several years.
