I’m a Pirates season ticket holder and he’s great!! Quite accessible to fans, at least at the moment. Last year the day he signed his contract, sth got in early before the game and he was practicing. Signed for all the fans that were there. A lot of other good things to say about him.
It’s frustrating. Trust me. We have a great starting rotation and Reynolds, Cruz, rowdy suddenly….but we can’t consistently score. It’s a shame. A GM who is inept and sitting on his hands.
Yeah, we could use a couple more solid bats, but it has been pretty great watching not only Skenes but also Mitch Keller and the other lesser known high velo rookie Jared Jones. The Bucs have a ton of potential, but the front office does need to get off their asses and do something.
@@DavidKfilmmaker Rome wasn't built in a day! I'm confident they'll make a few moves to shore up the batting order.. to be frank, you don't need to score much when you have 3 guys that put up a lot of zeros in your rotation. Hoping it all works out but so much to like about the future for y'all.
@@G.0. Three starters that go out and toss Zeros.. great stuff. I think a trade for taylor ward would do wonders, hes a great dude and reliable bat. Not sure if my Angels are smart enough to make a decent trade happen though.. 2+ years of control for ward at a cost effective rate as well.
As a Razorbacks fan I could not stand Skenes when he was at LSU, and as a Cardinals fan I could not stand him when he was drafted by the Pirates. But after watching him play, for some reason, I couldn't help but like him. But after this interview I will be a fan of his for every one of his starts except when he is facing the St Louis Cardinals.
I can honestly understand that as a LSU fan.. He was so dominant.And we treated him like he was already in the Big Leagues.. He is just different..Humble and a beast..
To recieve that call, on a live interview, with DP at that. What a moment! I may be a red sox fan, but I couldn't be happier for this young man. What a career already.
It is exciting to see a player that will only make baseball better and he is mature enough to know that his manager made the decision and he respects that. He is not stirring the pot he is a leader he is the future leader of a franchise and whoever he decides to pitch for long term will be lucky. You dont need it but goodluck Skenes!!
Some LSU fan said that in 2023 Skenes had the best year any human ever had. Acquire spectacular girlfriend -- check. Win national championship -- check. Become first pick in the draft -- check. Looks like 2024 isn't bucking the trend.
Good interview and a surprise ending. I'm curious as to why DP had not said anything about another rookie pitcher who has been the star for his team and who was selected to the all-star game before Skenes. Shota Imanago of the Chicago Cubs has been their ace all year, exceeding all expectations, yet DP has not mentioned him once.
You could drop Spencer Strider in here and it would be the same interview. Given how hard these two throw, it will be interesting to see if Skenes can keep off the injury list.
Humble young man, nice breath of fresh air and gained a fan here. Nice compared to the other athletes trying to make us feel sorry for them with those disrespectful 30 million dollar offers they have been receiving.
@@jordanhaworth105 just as I thought. Those dang greedy Blacks!! Blacks will be forever the most favored and blessed! Don’t get too comfortable this whole country is about to give a lot more to Blacks!!
If Nutting is ever going to step into modern baseball financially, this is the kid to do it for. Obviously barring any injury issues, I hate even brining that up, but it is so relevant with ppwer arms now a days. But Paul has insane potential, I mean the dude is one of(if not THE) best pitchers in baseball, and he is only 10-11 starts into his career. I couldn't be happier to have him here in Pittsburgh. And don't worry, I know Nutting won't spend the money unless he was buying another ski resort or something. Nutting legitimately trying to win? 😂😂😂 Unfortunately at the detriment of the entire Pirates fanbase.
As a Pennsylvania native and Pittsburgh sports fan who has lived through all the years of drafting great players only to see them traded I will be PISSED if we don't try and build around this guy.
Uhh...that was an extremely creepy, low-class, trashy thing to say. You literally went out of your way to talk about a young woman's - and a complete stranger's - "inner thigh sweat." Your parents sure raised you right!

This is an “Emmy award winning” interview. All the superlatives to all involved. 🎉
Came here from the podcast to actually watch it and say the same
Let’s go! Suck it MLB Tonight!
He's 22 yet he looks like someone in their 40's trying to sell me a 1995 Taurus.

That's a $400M arm. I hope he has a long ass decorated HOF career. He's fun to watch.
That was VERY COOL!! The TODDfather of calls delivers!! 📞 OUTSTANDING
This was one of the best interviews I've seen in a long time!
Guy is 22 but has a 40 year demeanor 😂
It’s called maturity.
Or “having his shit together.”
i agree.
I AINT EVA GONNA STOP WATCHING SKENES!!!!
WM and PS FTW!
lol
The Pittsburgh Pirate!
SKENES
I will always remember Paul Skenes carrying an injured teammate on his back out to the dogpile after LSU won the national championship.
Dude was a cadet at the AFA.
They don’t take me-first types.
That was the one of the best moments in LSU baseball..💜💛⚜️
Wow, such a great move for Baseball! Good Luck kid!!! Been so much fun watching you pitch.
Great interview, as always
What an awesome interview!
He has that swagger. I throw 102 with a 95 mph splinter and you ain’t gonna touch it.
Zounds - that’s great! Other major leaguers are chiming in here. At least tell us who you pitch for, “mystery guy”.
@@skaz777 huh? I’m talking about Paul dummy. Not myself 🤣
Love that he stayed on zoom 😂
what a cool moment! rooting for you Paul
Best interview ever, Dan. Great young ,
Man.
Great interview, guys!
This is why you have a an unwavering Army behind you DP!! Classy, Classy, Classy!!
Fantastic interview! Paul is a an all time great at LSU baseball. National Champs!
We 100% lucked into getting PS, but damn are we excited, hopeful and ecstatic. Can't wait to watch him start the ASG.

this kid is chill asf mature and an amazing phenomenal player love him honestly
Great interview
This was great
The right questions. The right answers. This was brilliant.
Great Book Todd
IM a Yankees fan 100%. I been watching him pitch at Airforce, LSU and now Pirates...You go get em sir!!!
Hopefully he’ll be in pinstripes in a couple years. Seems to be Pittsburgh’s MO.
Nahh yinz keep Cole wel keep Skenes 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
@@GorbombZombay
Nutting won’t pay……..
Skenes will be a Yankee or Dodger in 3 years…….
Haha...Someone beat me to it. He will be a Yankee or a Dodger in a few years.
This was so funny and spontaneous
Some LSU fan said that in 2023 Skenes had the best year any human ever had. Acquire spectacular girlfriend -- check. Win national championship -- check. Become first pick in the draft -- check. Looks like 2024 isn't bucking the trend.
Hell yeah!!!
Really hard not to root for this kid. I look forward to hopefully seeing him stay healthy and pitch for years to come
Unbelievable honor !!
I’d have a silly smirk on my face if I was bangin’ OD, too.
4:28 Haha classic Danny question. “When did you know you were great?” 😂
Might as well call him Bob Ross the way he paints corners.
Reminds me of my Favorite Maddoxs
Paul looks like my accountant 😂😂 but he’s a beast

Shota Imanago of the Chicago Cubs has been their ace all year, exceeding all expectations, yet DP has not mentioned him once.
leave it to Dan asking Paul about greatness making Skenes uncomfortable,and challenging his humility . Special kid
Class Act Good Luck Paul
Yes, I love to hear him saying he's gonna throw a no no if he gets a chance
Very Fun!
Hell yeah
You could drop Spencer Strider in here and it would be the same interview. Given how hard these two throw, it will be interesting to see if Skenes can keep off the injury list.
Challenge: Braves fans try not to make every single thing about the Braves. Difficulty level: Impossible.
Yeah strider without the +3.50 ERA
The great ones don't leave

Which athletes are those?? Just curious.
@sgtmurray2052 Paul George said he was disrespected by that amount and Ayuik said that about 26 mill a season

Glad he's a Pirate!
Skenes is the man
Paul Skenes is a LSU legend
Paul Skenes is the most 40 year old 22 year old ever. Love this guy. Great pitcher. . . Great person.
👌🏽👌🏽
😂Great job TODD
Skenes fan even after he goes to the Dodgers or Yankees in a few years 😢
Paul is good for Baseball 😊
I think with a couple tweaks, we have a new Andrew Luck.
@allinink8077 Quite possibly he could be...hopefully he plays longer than Andrew did...
As a Pennsylvania native and Pittsburgh sports fan who has lived through all the years of drafting great players only to see them traded I will be PISSED if we don't try and build around this guy.
Now I will actually watch the All Star game....Buccos should sign him long term NOW!.....They freaking won't tho so gotta enjoy him while we got him
SKENES
5:24 Stop that Dan!! Let the damn kid be humble he just started my goodness.
this was the anti "I'm here to talk about qualcomm" interview.... guy wants to stick around longer than expected. 😂
Paul Skenes knew LSU is the best college
Starters
So why isn’t Mitch Keller an All Star?
He will make a great Yankkee when we buy him in five years!
Given that you almost completely ignore baseball every season, it’s rather inappropriate that you even mention the All-Star game or Paul Slenes.
12:12 someone that represents this game that I love great to see. Not like the cheating az Astros
Shave that mustache your going to look great in New York Yankees Pinstripes #30 Awesome !
This Cubs fan is jealous as hell, but slightly happy fr the Bucs. Enjoy him while you have him. The Dodgers or Yanks will try to get him.
I think the All-Star announcement was contrived.... It didn't seem organic I think Dan Patrick knew
Staged, we already knew he was gonna start. I love Dan's show but don't hurt yourself patting yourself on the back.
Outlier
What a cool kid, very humble.
Can't wait when he becomes a Dodger!
Proud that baseball buys championships..how many have dodgers won since 2000?
@@shadowlazers Baseball is a business. Players go where the money is, not for championships. Pirates can't afford him. It's that simple.
Frontrunner.
7 innings is not a no hitter
No shit.
talk about a boring dude
god forbid a guy focus on playing ball without all the extra shit lmfao grow up dawg
And grounded too. Thank god.
I love my athletes boring. They make great teammates.
Dude has the personality and charisma of a wet blanket
He doesn’t need either.
He has TALENT.
