On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey reaction to Arizona Diamondbacks and National League manager Torey Lovullo's comments about Pirates star Paul Skenes. Is Lovullo hinting that Skenes is the obvious choice to start for the NL in the MLB All-Star game? Who are the other possible candidates? And how much should the hype around Skenes league-wide influence the decision?
Jason tackles those topics, plus the question of whether it's already time for owner Bob Nutting and GM Ben Cherington to consider giving Skenes and extension. Then he analyzes the potential for Penguins defensemen Erik Karlsson and Ryan Graves to bounce back after difficult first years wit the club.
