Guy dominated AAA in limited # of starts. How good will this guy be?

[Easy-Rider 66]

Draft Kings Promo: no hits allowed by Skenes 1st 3 innings. +500.

Picked him up in my fantasy league, interested to see how he fares.

Throws gas and has 4-5 pitches as well as movement on his fastball at 100 mph.

He gets a lot of people chasing so will be interesting to see if big leaguers can see his pitches better. He looks like Roger Clemons out there to me so wouldn’t be surprised to see him win ROY

Sad thing is people probably actually bet that shit. For all the hype that sure was pretty mediocre.

Yeah knew a player that did bet it. small cheese so no big deal. he lost.

[JAKEPEAVY21]

He had great stuff but was very wild...can probably chalk some of that up to the emotions.

He should settle down in the coming starts.

Nice, Jake. I wonder how the scouts view him against (say) a young Strasburg.

[Mr KLC]

17 pitches over 100 mph. TJS is in this guy's immediate future.
