Williams: Paul Skenes Has the Ever-Important Major League Attitude

I had to do a double-take after the 2023 MLB draft.

Over at MLB.com, Jessica Camerato had a great article during the All-Star break. She asked MLB All-Stars if they thought first overall pick Paul Skenes could get MLB players out today. Featured in the article, you’ll find Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman, Orioles outfielder Austin Hays, and Dodgers catcher Will Smith, amongst others, giving praise to the stuff from the LSU right-hander.

I have seen a few of these types of post-draft articles over the years.
