Paul Skenes headlines NL AllStars Phillies lead with seven players

A little more than one year ago Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Paul Skenes was playing college baseball. Now he is a National League All-Star after just 10 big league starts. Skenes was named to his first All-Star team on Sunday afternoon despite the fact he has only been in the Major Leagues for less than two months and started just 10 games.Best porn XXX. Those 10 games, however, have been so dominant that the league could not ignore his results. If he had enough innings to qualify his 2.12 ERA would be the best in all of baseball, while he has also dazzled fans and baffled opposing hitters with his arsenal of pitches that includes a 100-plus mph fastball and a devastating splitter/sinker combo known as a “splinker.”  It is also a historic honor for him as he is the first player to go No. 1 overall and then be selected for the game the next year.
