Skenes' Mechanics Are the Issue | Pittsburgh Pirates News
from Pittsburgh Pirates News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Former MLB All-Star Dan Plesac dives into the mechanical issues plaguing Pirates phenom Paul Skenes, revealing how early body rotation is throwing off his arm’s timing—leading to lost velocity and wild pitches. Plesac shows exactly how Skenes’ delivery gets out of sync, making it hard to command his fastball. The fix? Stay “closed” longer in the windup to keep the arm aligned with momentum. While a full-season turnaround may be ambitious, this tweak could help Skenes regain control—and prove that even elite talent needs refined fundamentals to shine.
