Striking out 11 batters in only your 2nd start is insane
I mean there hasn’t been a rookie like him besides degrom
@@Easymoneysniper123 strasburg
@@jordan-kz3rx im a mets fan. strasburg's debut was absolutely worrisome.
@@Easymoneysniper123 I've been saying that he reminds me SO MUCH of DeGrom... with even MORE velocity.
the no hitter through all 6 is even more impressive.
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.
Splinker*
I disagree
His fastball moves A LOT, let's hope he stays healthy.
More like : enjoy the years before the Tommy Jones, we ALLLL know it is coming
@@vranthis Johns
@@vranthisbringing up injuries before they even happen is loser behavior 😂
I am amazed it is a 4-seam...it looks like a freakin sinker with that amount of run.
@@vranthis johns
Man, looks like the Yankees will be paying this dude $400 million to be the ACE of there rotation in 7 years.
And I believe you are right. It also could be the Dodgers.
The Pirates will lock him right after this season ends, 300M
@@doncoder13 unfortunately the pirates wont be paying anyone that kind of money
@@doncoder13there will probably be opt outs let’s be real
Yessirrrr
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.
Everybody who’s saying he’ll be injured hasn’t followed the guys career. Your witnessing the real deal
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.
Real.
Why would you bring up injuries? Hope he stays healthy
not to be negative, and wish him the best, but more likely he will blow out his elbow. and MLB is not doing anything to help pitchers but help viewership instead.
He will start off just like Strider, throwing crazy heat and then have to dial it back considerably or risk being injured constantly or burning out.
Longevity isn't a current era thing. Little league dad's run there kids arms out before age 12
Fantastic- the precision of his fastball- unreal
If i could turn into a supporting ligament just to support his elbow, I gladly would. This man can TOSS. Lol
This guy looks effortless throwing the ball out there.
Cubs looking like a little league team right now😭
Love it Let's Go Skenes and Let's Go Bucs
Skenes aint scared. Lets go Bucs
Thank you for putting this together
It's the first 7 hitters man you could have done it
Electric like Mason Miller but he’s a starter…just filthy stuff
His pitching stance almost reminds me of Justin Verlander's
I can't believe how many people slept on him in Fantasy baseball. I have him on all 3 of my teams. 😂😂
I'd be interested to hear Pedro Martinez on his pitching mechanic.
Wow... just wow...
So excited about this kid
Great control with speed. Impressive.
He’s a leg pitcher. Less risk of arm injuries.
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.
They do it because the organization knows they won’t get the pitcher to the series no sense in letting them be that good and not have anything to show for it
Appreciate his greatness! Geaux Tigers!
I watched Skenes pitch in person at LSU,ive never seen stuff like this before
Development. He's only going to get better
It was crazy last year watching him make good, experienced SEC hitters look like high school kids. Skenes is unreal.
Que movimiento tan espectacular tiene la recta de este muchacho miren como rompe esa recta a 100 millas
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 👍
He seems to effortlessly throw serious gas and that splitter is just sick. Love it!
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.
Nolan Ryan is back
Let’s hope he has the health of the great Ryan
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!
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...
⛈️⚡🌩️⚡ he remind me a young mighty Roger - the rocket - Clemens 👀👀👀 the sound of the baseball when hit the catcher mitts is his awesome 🔥🔥 .
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.
injuries are just about velocity, spin is also important. he throws his slider fast and with a lot of movement, that's just as bad
Another point they miss is that he’s massive! 92mph to him is having a catch. When he throws 100+ he’s not throwing everything he has. He throws 100 consistently with ease and they think he’s just running on fumes and determination. Hes the outlier, not the norm.
@@brandonlm0125 💯 He's not putting all his strength into every single pitch like a closer would do. It's just natural. Look how long Randy Johnson lasted... it's because he was 9ft tall.
@@rags15061 that’s what I meant. 97-101 is easy for him and everyone acts like his arm is gonna fall off.
@@brandonlm0125 yes I agree 💯
This is strike out machine 🔥
That’s a lot of movement on that fastball. Wow.
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
The movement on his 100mph pitches is crazy.
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!
Paul Skene reminds me of Matt Harvey came into the league throwing extremely hard lots of hype
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.
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
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’s incredible
This dude is a STUD!
Never seen anything like this in a long time.
Seems like only yesterday I was watching this guy in the college world series
I'd be absolutely crushing it too if I were coming home to that....
Just wowie!!!!!!!
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.
This pitcher will be "thee pitcher" to watch for a long time coming.
On the 6th ķ missed a perfect opportunity to say 'Better call Paul' that's all
ty mlb
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
He wasn’t even a pitcher his whole life… he started as a catcher
The only thing more beautiful than Paul's pitching today is that he was in my FBB starting rotation.
Same here! And I got Fried and Ragans still to pitch tonight. Should be a juicy day
Crazy. Gotta wait at least until his second time through the league though. Those big league hitters are pretty good.
Yeah, they level up everyone, eventually...hitters gonna hit!
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.
he's the real deal
That splinker pitch is absolute filth. 95-96 mph with a short quick drop. Looks damn near unhittable.
good gods above how does he throw pitches that fast with that much movement?!
The Gland Man has got the juice! 💯
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!
Not cool to laugh at people though, appreciate your skill and respect the game, always. No need to mock players, not professional at all...this ain't college. He'll get touched up plenty over the years, just hope he doesn't turn into "that guy" when he does.
Coach O says git it baw! Ya think ya kno spicy wi commin
Nasty!!
That Splinker is a nasty pitch. Dang.
I’m telling you man, Skenes
Pittsburgh always getting high caliber pitchers good job
dont worry they will find a way to fumble the bag still
Yeah they have a good eye just a cheap owner
Gone in 5
When you constantly have top 5 picks it’s safe to assume that every now and then they will draft a Cole, Glasnow or Skenes, but saying that they always get high caliber pitchers is far from the truth.
Cause we always stink so end up with top draft picks and even manage to mess that up alot like Daniel Moskos cause we didn't want to pay so drafted down in the top of the first round. Hopefully Bob will roll out the red carpet for Paul but my mind tells me otherwise
He looks like he short arms his pitch. Doesn't extend his arm. Hope he stays healthy
And he goes home to Livvy Dunne
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
curveball. Watch his first start he did exactly as you said for a strike.
I saw a young "Strasburg" again as I thought. Keep healthy for a long career.
There was absolutely no need for this video to be 14 minutes
Then don’t watch it
Skenes vs Ohtani would be awesome matchup
Bro this man will be unfair
He already is haha
That was definitely a swing from Happ.
Paul skenes is so exciting. I don’t wanna be weird but damn.
he has a splinker, curve ball, slider and 100mph 4-seamer 😲
He almost had a perfect 6 innings 😩 so close
Its a splitter not a splinker. Young roger clemens. Hopefully he stays healthy
Skenes is the one that made up the name for that pitch. So technically it is a splinker.
I think the velo is just natural for him
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.
It’s his second start and the Pirates are gonna need him if they hope to make this a season. It is a bit odd, but they are definitely keeping on a pretty strict pitch count. They are thinking long term and this kid will have more than his fair share of opportunities for history if he keeps pitching like this.
It's hard because I agree but also you don't want to stress his arm too much and risk blowing out his arm on his like 2nd or 3rd start haha
The Pirates also pulled Max Kranick when he was throwing a no hitter through 5 innings against St Louis a few years back if I recall correctly. Probably trying to be mindful of the pitch count. They let Keller throw a complete game last week because it was under his max pitch count.
Historically they've kept Skenes under 60 pitches or so per appearance. Not surprised they pulled him
@@morange492When their pitch count is high and they throw heat all the time they don’t want to risk Skenes blowing his arm out so quickly
@morange492 normally I would say don't stress his arm but this was only this kids 2nd start in the MLB and he had a no hitter going and 11 strikeouts. Let him play that out. He seriously could've done it and now we will never know. Could've had his name sealed in mlb history
Spencer Strider look-alike!
He's maybe the best pitcher i've ever seen. Velocity, good break ,control and mental toughness.
😂😂😂 must of been born yesterday then.
Pedro Martinez, Randy Johnson, deGrom must not exist in your universe
the man has 2 career starts
@@Nahfr430 Johnson got so much control he killed a bird, yeah that 101 mph Martinez fast ball we all remember and yeah deGrom...

Winning on and off the field
If this guy can develop a solid changeup, my God he would be devastating.
えっぐいてー！！！
He will quickly make a great player on another team.
I’ve only done this on MLB the show…on rookie difficulty…
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
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.
There are forces at work in this video lol
Im sorry Splinker is just too funny a name for a pitch 😂
5th battery foul tip was the first contact
Man this kid reminds me of Roge4r Clemens, but he is so unique in the way his arm doesn't give away his pitches at all. It almost looks like a slider sometime when he throws that sinker, but he holds in a way ive never seen.. Kids Special. When he is in that zone, he is unhittable at only 22 thats crazy
It hurts my arm just watching him throw so fast constantly on this pitch clock.
We’re going to need a better catcher if we’re gonna be able to utilize his movement
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
Real Nuke Laloosh vibes from this dude.
Monster😈
He's great, but I'm concerned that his pitching style is putting strain on his elbow.💪
He could pull a Satchel Paige stunt and tell the fielders to go sit in the dugout. He just needs the catcher.
