Paul Skenes Strikes a Deal: Will He Dominate or Fade Under Pirates’ Watchful Eye?
The team’s misfortunes, however, have not affected Skenes’ mindset or his performance. He can only control what he can control. Things haven’t gone according to plan — not by a long shot — for the Pirates. All the face of the franchise can do is take the ball every handful of days and do his part.
If that means he won’t get to throw until he thinks he’s done some nights, so be it. He’s willing to go along with whatever the plan is, with one notable exception.
“Not skipping a start,” he said. “That’s a no-go. That’s not good. … That’s not ideal. We’ve done a good job to this point, just working within our own parameters.”
