There's no way you don't think he had a legendary first year as a pitcher. One of the best rookie seasons for a pitcher of all time. Merrill is a baller and would have won any other year, but anybody thinking rationally knows this was Skenes.
As long as AJ is in the front office SD won’t be taken seriously around the league. It’s the sad truth and reality. Short of winning a championship there is nothing he can do to change this. It is what it is. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The Trout and Merrill comparison was WILD.
Jackson played basically every day and hit near 300 and paul pitched 4 innings every 5-6 says no debate Jackson should have won , also Paul chicken out to pitch VS Padres not once but twice.Paul wasn’t impressive at all he pitched VS bad teams
Paul skenes set rookie pitching records and was a cy young candidate and he won’t win Cy young because sale won triple crown if not for the triple crown skenes would probably give a run for the money to whomever won CY young but that alone says that skenes was more deserving of ROY not just that but Merrill’s rookie year was comparable to Bryan Reynolds rookie year skenes was a monster and so was merril but skenes was better
@@JonandJim760 The difference is that Merrill had a good rookie season for a hitter, but not one of the greatest rookie hitting seasons ever. Skenes had one of the greatest and most dominant pitching seasons for a rookie.
Guys like these who are still salty over their team choking are unable to think rationally. I like Merrill a lot, but this was Skenes without a doubt and a legendary rookie year. @@alecamp5369
Paul Skenes only won because of his famous GF, he wasn't the best rookie player in the National league at all, he had no impact on the Pirates season at all
Having the #28 pick wouldve helped the Padres a lot with the farm

Padres will forever be 2ND BEST😂
To the Pirates lol
The fact that the media was pushing Skenes so much told me that Jackson should've won.
100%

Merrill is nowhere near Trout.
Why you guys shitting on Ken Rosenthal? He’s knowledgeable, fair, very humble and a very good reporter.
Cuz he’s the worst

Wow! Your entire statement is a loser lie. Paul Skenes won because he had one of the best seasons ever by a pitcher. You dumb clown.
If Merrill would put on the swag chain ⛓️💥! Or done the Soto shuffle , or any other idiotic thing madres do to celebrate mediocrity he would of won
I like Merrell. And I'm a Dodgers fan.
