re: The odds of Skenes pitching

He meant middle relief or setup.

I’d rather have him closing. He can be more aggressive and you don’t have to worry about pitch count at that point.

Edit: why I wouldn’t start him is you do have to protect his future. He may get on the bump and not want to come off. Hate to see him frick up his arm, however small the possibility, and lose out on the potential of a few hundred million vs thew few he will get when drafted.
