When did this Skubal guy become the best pitcher in the league? I thought he was just another often injured throwaway Detroit pitcher. I watched some of the game yesterday and he looked damn near unhittable
Just looked up his season stats. holy fuck.
110 IP, 132 K, 2.37 ERA, 0.90 WHIP.

The 12-for-12 club: Here are the other three players to do what Jose Miranda did
The last time a major leaguer had 12 hits in 12 consecutive at-bats, the Twins hadn't even moved to Minnesota yet.

Pulled him after 7.
"It was a near-mirror image of Skenes' second career start, in which he delivered six no-hit innings and struck out 11 against a different NL Central foe in the Cubs. He joined Hall of Famer Nolan Ryan as the only pitchers with multiple outings of six or more innings pitched, no hits and 11 or more strikeouts.
Skenes also became the first pitcher since at least 1901 with seven or more strikeouts in at least 10 of his first 11 appearances. It was also his eighth consecutive outing with seven-plus strikeouts, the third most by a rookie behind only Dwight Gooden in 1984 and Brandon Beachy in 2011, who both had nine such outings."

Skenes goes 7 no-hit frames with 11 K's to join Nolan Ryan in history books
In his first start since being named an All-Star, Paul Skenes proved exactly why he deserved the honor with yet another dominant effort against the Brewers on Thursday afternoon. The flamethrowing rookie right-hander matched a career high with 11 strikeouts and did not allow a hit through seven...

Paul Skenes becomes the first pitcher in the modern era to have 2 road starts of 10+ strikeouts, 1 or fewer walks, and 0 hits in his entire career.
He's made 5 career road starts.
I don't even have the words for how absurd he is

If Sal weren't such a beta male who knows nothing about sports, he could have made a bit out of new A's first round draft pick Nick Kurtz
When I saw that name in expected high draft picks I thought of Sal.
I have Rusty Kuntz cards proudly displayed prominently in my home office.

The friggin sound his contact makes is insane:

This horse is absolutely ripped - what a beast

Mets sweep both 2 game subway series from the Yankees for the 1st time in forever.
But I'm not sure it was the Mets playing so well, or if its just that the Yankees have been a deflated balloon for weeks now. I guess a combination. Its like if you can get Judge out, the rest of the lineup can't do a thing till you get back to Soto's next AB.
