Paul Skenes MLB Preview & Props
Paul Skenes has still looked like one of the most dominant young arms in baseball for the Pittsburgh Pirates this MLB season. His elite velocity and overpowering strikeout stuff continue creating problems for hitters, but recent outings have shown that even elite pitchers can run into trouble when command slips and opposing lineups capitalize on mistakes.
