Paul Skenes was selected to the National League's pitching staff for the upcoming MLB All-Star Game, helping the Pittsburgh Pirates rookie carve out a spot in the history books.
Paul Skenes hasn't even been a professional baseball player for a full year yet, and he has already been named an All-Star.
While this marks Reynolds' second time going to the All-Star Game, this is obviously a first for Skenes. After all, the Pirates didn't even draft Skenes until July 9, 2023, or sign him until a week later. The 22-year-old righty is 5-0 with a 2.12 ERA, 1.011 WHIP, 11.8 strikeouts per nine innings and a 2.7 WAR through 10 career MLB starts. Despite not making his big league debut until May 11, Skenes already ranks No. 9 among NL pitchers in WAR.
