Yes, but you can’t tell that to the conspiracy theorists. He also just pitched on 4 days rest for the first time in his career

And he'll be on a pitch restriction being as he's never pitched more than 75 pitches in a game in the minors, and mostly less than that, they won't let him pitch much more than that if any more. His first start may go 5 innings.

Good news is for Skenes fans is the Cubs are struggling at the plate now and none of their hitters have ever seen a pitch from Skenes before, so that's to his advantage.
