Grading Paul Skenes and his Latest Outing  

1 run in 6 innings is great. Only 3 strikeouts, but if your starter can hold the opposing team to just one run 2/3s of the way through the game, you really ought to come away with a W.

Haha well done!

Thanks Shawn!

Oh dude---that SUCKS

and suddenly Suarez is one of the best closers in the league

As a fellow Braves fan, I keep him. With the way he looked last season, and hopefully with some more development this year, I think he is top of the rotation guy-next year. I would potentially trade Elder. But at this point, I don't know who would take him, or what you could get in return.

@@markharbaugh4445 I love that response!! Before he started yesterday I was thinking maybe trade him for a Sonny Gray or someone of that caliber, but after watching him pitch yesterday I see the development, and potentially. I totally agree with everything you said. It is unfortunate that Bryce hasn't been in the same form he was in the first half of last year, but even then I didn't think he was the answer. You have to be so precise with location, and pitch selection if you don't have elite velo. I believe that pitcher from the cubs Shota Imanaga is a perfect example that you can still be one of the best without the electric fastball. Maybe with more time and development Elder can be successful somewhere.

Yep--I agree. We actually had a longer discussion that we trimmed down re that...and that's my conclusion as well.

It use anything from Adobe After Effects to Wondershare Filmora. Takes a good bit of time to line everything up perfectly (sometimes you just can't due to camera shake).

@@PitchingNinjaVideos Thanks. iMovie green screen/blue screen is kind of the budget way, but it kind of works. Appreciate your content. Keep it up!

Agreed. Not sure what was going on but it seemed all of Clevinger's breaking pitches were being called cutters.

that kid was great lol
