Alex Stumpf joins NS9LIVE! to discuss Paul Skenes’ current struggles and his nine-start losing streak. What has happened to the velocity, splinker and breaking pitches that made Skenes nearly unhittable, and is fatigue beginning to become a legitimate concern?
The crew also breaks down the Pirates’ catching situation as Endy Rodriguez continues to hit his way into a larger role. Then, they close the show with Esmerlyn Valdez, who has quickly become one of the most exciting Pirates rookies in years while producing a 191 wRC+ through his first 64 plate appearances.
