Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey joins host Adam Bittner to talk about Paul Skenes' future in Pittsburgh. Is a contract extension with the National League Cy Young candidate a legit possibility? Or does he have little incentive to sign unless GM Ben Cherington can prove an ability to put a winning roster around him? And would owner Bob Nutting even approve such an expenditure if Skenes was interested?
Our duo tackles those topics and more including Ke'Bryan Hayes' return to Pittsburgh with the Cincinnati Reds; they delayed callups of top pitching prospects Bubba Chandler and Hunter Barco amid the continued presence of Andrew Heaney on the roster; and Dennis Santana's early struggles in the closer role after inheriting it from the departed David Bednar.
