Pittsburgh Pirates phenom pitcher Paul Skenes was named NL Rookie of the Year after an incredible start to his MLB career, posting a 1.96 ERA over 23 starts.
There was never a doubt, but MLB made it official on Monday night as Pittsburgh Pirates phenom Paul Skenes was named NL Rookie of the Year after starting off his career in dominant fashion. Fellow rookie pitcher Luis Gil of the New York Yankees won the AL Rookie of the Year award as well, just beating out Baltimore Orioles outfielder Colton Cowser in voting. His Yankees teammate, Austin Wells, was also among the finalists for the award.
He went on to pitch four innings, giving up three earned runs and striking out seven over four innings. Though not the most impressive outing, his second didn’t disappoint as he struck out 11 Cubs and didn’t allow a hit over six innings of work this time. As he continued to dominate MLB hitters, Skenes was brought into the Cy Young Award conversation.
