Any Pirates fans in? 😳
Davy Andrews

If so, I'm very sorry.

More evidence why fielding percentage is a dumb stat

I am now willing to count out the pirates

Fantasy question: Since Skenes ERA is over 40.00, can I drop him for Seth Lugo?

1:50
i'd normally let Skenes wear one this early, might as well get it out of the way, but you can't let him keep throwing this many pitches in one inning

On the bright side, the Pirates fans got about 10 pitches worth of hope this year, an infinite improvement over previous years.

Is this the Team USA curse?

we're 30 minutes into the season and I think we already need to have wellness checks for Pitt fans

Dr. Robby will take care of you.

Kelly certainly lifted Skenes more for pitch count than lack of effectiveness -- brutal defense behind him, as well as poor batted-ball luck -- but even so... wow.

ZiPS now projects Skenes to finish with a 3.08 ERA, up from 2.80 an hour ago
Matt Martell

This is a bonkers stat
Davy Andrews

Goodness.
Well, badness.

If no more runs

He'd have fallen to second, but Logan Webb...

My junior year of HS, our team lost our opener 31-1 (yes true story), and this seems somehow worse

Defense is important, kids. Don't neglect it
AvatarJay Jaffe

Skenes' line 37 pitches, 0.2 innings, 4 hits, 5 runs (all earned), 2 walks, 1 strikeouts. 55% CSW but woof, that defense
Matt

Hey now, Adam Ottavino and Carlos Pena are the pride of Northeastern. Also, I had classes with Toby Fox there(Hopefully Dan gets this)

NO changed rest-of-season projection though

Watching some Skenes before my Nats to remind myself what good baseball could look like
AvatarDavid Laurila

Pirates fans can perhaps blame George for what has transpired.
Davy Andrews
1:55
You mean the best ERA in baseball during spring training Nats? Those Nats?
AvatarDan Szymborski

The Undertale score was terrific
1:56
Bonetrousle was a killer track

How much has Cruz's defensive projection changed Dan?
Davy Andrews
1:56
THAT'S a good question.

Speaking of pronunciations, I am so glad that I heard an announcer say "Andy Pages" before I attempted to utter his name in real life
Bob
1:56
Let’s hope Peralta didn’t cool off too much after that bottom of the first inning
Brian
1:56
Mets will win A LOT of games if LouBob is drawing a 10 pitch walk vs Skenes
Cameron Kear

Jay, this is the billion dollar question but do you ever expect a salary cap in MLB?

Judging by today's early goings, is it reasonable to assume that the NYMs are going to score 1,000 runs this season?
Davy Andrews

This month.
