    I actually like what the Pirates are doing with Skenes. He is building up his pitch count slowly. I think he was around 60 the other week. They realize he's special, and don't want to ruin his arm. Maybe he will come up towards the later half of the season once he's at 85-95 pitches.

      @treysonmcgrady4750 Місяць тому +15

      Ok please correct me if I’m wrong: isn’t there absolutely zero evidence this method works? Haven’t teams tried this before and it just doesn’t matter?
      Throwing 100+ on any arm anytime is a ticking time bomb. The time is always unknown, could be the next pitch, could be 1,000 down the line.
      So, if that line of thinking is correct, they should bring him up immediately. No amount of load management is going to save his arm, it’s likely getting damaged much more than a standard pitcher’s arm on every pitch.
      They can build him up in the pros anyway, why does it have to be the minors? He can have a 60 pitch count in the bigs too he’s ready.

      Yeah, I tried going to a Buccos game when the Phils were in town last summer and standing room tickets were $60+ in the 5th inning. We ended up at Mike’s and had a great experience. And it’s literally right across the street.
      For other recommendations, it would depend on where you’re staying? Have you had a Primanti’s? Maybe worth the experience, but I’d consider Peppi’s if convenient and were craving a sandwich.

      I disagree. Skenes is 6'6". Not exactly like Randy Johnson, but I believe Skenes is using his length to create the velocity. Strider is short. I would have said he was creating the velocity from his tree trunk legs, but obviously he was putting to much stress on the elbow to create the velocity.

    He throws too hard all the time. The clock is ticking on his UCL. These guys are 95-100% effort on all their pitches. John Smoltz said that's the arm issue. If you throw 80-90% you are still at 94-96.. probably with more accuracy. Smoltz said he could throw 98+ but didn't he thinks pitchers are just using near max effort out there and that's why there are so many injuries. Orthopedic studies show the same thing.
