Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes is hoping to build off of his stellar rookie season in 2025.
Skenes dominated last season, earning Rookie of the Year honors in the National League after going 11-3 with a sub-2.00 ERA for the Buccos.
MLB.com writer Sarah Langs thinks that was just the tip of the iceberg for Skenes, believing he could come for more history in his second season.
Skenes’ stellar rookie season was just an appetizer. With a 2.80 ERA and 242 strikeouts, he’s projected to lead the Majors in both categories.
