He's 23 and he's a multi time all star with a cy young and he's dominating the best teams in the world. It's not hyperbolic- we could be witnessing the best ever

Skenes needs to give up his AF dream and go work for Border Patrol the way he was shutting those Mexicans down.

So glad he is part of this USA Team. He is going to be one of the most sought out Free Agents ($$$) ever when he hits the market. Not going to lie, the above picture of him walking across the field makes it look like he is in a Braves uniform which would upset me!

Skenes is video game good. It makes no sense how much better he is than everyone else. He makes the best hitters in the world helpless.

He is good, VERY good. I am going to enjoy watching him chase the greatest pitchers ever. N. Ryan, Clemons, Johnson, to name a few. Good Luck & Geaux Tigers.
