re: Start and pitch Skenes like normal tomorrow

Crews is probably at just as much risk if not more of injury playing every single day in the field,batting,and running the bases he could tear and ACL at any moment or any other number of injuries. There is always a risk with everything but team aces pitching on short rest has been a common occurrence for years,even on 3-4 days rest. I think if Skenes is wanting the ball you give him the ball,period. It just be a shame to make it to a winner take all game and not have our best player out there to give us our best chance. But you can’t force him as a coach if he says no but I think you do have to ask how he is feeling, ask him if it’s something he wants to do or interested in,and if he says yes then you send him out there to do his thing.
