I was excoriated for saying he would have trouble in AA/AAA ball.

Guys thinking Crews and Skenes would cruise on through the minors like nothing and be in the show by September were out of their mind.

Yes, Skenes got squeezed a little bit, but what also happened is the professional hitters didn't swing at those pitches. It's just growing pains, nothing to be alarmed about. His fastball and slider were grading out on the level of Gerrit Cole while he was at LSU
