The Pirates rallied to beat the Tigers, but the big issue is still Paul Skenes. After the team gave him a few extra days of rest, he struggled again – failing to finish 5 innings. We looked back to last night and watching Braxton Ashcraft mow down the Tigers over 8 innings in very quick manner. How should the Pirates handle Skenes for his next turn in the rotation? What options do the Pirates have here? They could skip his next turn in the rotation or give him a phantom IL stint (for a pitcher, 15 days in the minimum).
