I think he could talent wise but I don’t think he will.

With the amount of innings he’s throwing this season, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Nats (assuming he goes 1.2) limit his appearances until next year.

No, only because the innings/pitches he has thrown this season will have him on a managed program this season.

I could see him start 2024 in AA with a call up to MLB prior to the AS break.

He’d have to fall to 4 in the draft

Crews will make an MLB roster before Skenes. Skenes will need a break after Omaha.

The only way that would happen is if the MLB team that drafts him makes it to the playoffs. Using an arm like that as an extra weapon would definitely come into play.

If the Pirates are in the playoffs yes.

He could pitch in MLB right now.


With that said, the Nats aren't going to risk that nor should they considering they are trash.
