As we gear up for the 2025 fantasy baseball season, the spotlight is on Paul Skenes and his potential impact on the Pirates' rotation. With projections suggesting a solid but not spectacular year ahead, it raises some intriguing questions for us fantasy enthusiasts.
First off, how do you feel about Skenes as a potential early-round pick? Many are touting him as a future ace, but with his four-seamer lacking the swing-and-miss potential we often associate with top-tier pitchers, is he really worth the hype? Could we see a dip in strikeouts as he adjusts to major league hitters, or do you think he’ll find a way to elevate his game?
Moreover, let’s talk about the Pirates' overall pitching strategy. With Skenes and Mitch Keller both in the mix, how do you see their roles evolving? Keller's projections suggest a slight improvement, but can he truly be relied upon as a consistent option in your rotation?
And what about the rest of the league? Are there any other pitchers you think could surprise us this season, either positively or negatively?
Let’s dive into the nitty-gritty of pitching strategies, player development, and how these factors could shape our fantasy rosters. What are your bold predictions for Skenes and the Pirates in 2025?
