Paul Skenes Discusses Pitch Grips and Pitching Strategy

[@AlphaBullys]

Paul Skeens and Pitching Ninja are the 🐐

[@PitchingNinjaVideos]

Ha-thanks!

[@Odd1006]

Its so nice as a pirates fan to have a good prospect come up and actually meet/beat expectations.

[@chrisosmonson854]

Keep up the great work as always guys! So fun to see you travel to the All-Star game.

[@PitchingNinjaVideos]

Thanks Chris!

😂😂😂 "Call me Big P." 💀🤣

[@mmclaurin8035]

Look at that specimen of a man. Look at that magnificent facial hair. Oh, and Paul Skenes is there too.

[@PitchingNinjaVideos]

Hahahaha....well done!

[@SpectrEdits]

It’s so scary that Paul hasn’t hit his ceiling because it feels like he still has so much potential to realize. I wish I could pick his brain for hours

[@PitchingNinjaVideos]

Agree 100%. Dude is the most talented young pitcher both physically and mentally that I've spoken with. He's extremely impressive.

[@SpectrEdits]

@@PitchingNinjaVideosI’m calling it down, dude will have a better prime than Kershaw. Also I’m not sure if you asked this but do you know why he doesn’t try to induce more rise out of his fastball? It seems like his drops a lot but i could be wrong.

[@troylee4196]

As a Pirates fan, it's scary he hasn't pitched a game yet where he's gotten wrecked and has to face serious adversity Makes me very glad how this team is working when he pitches

[@Ben-w8l]

@@SpectrEditsskenes throws from a low 3/4 arm slot, so he just can’t get as much backspin on his fastball.

[@SpectrEdits]

@@Ben-w8l ah makes sense, can a change in grip or even how tight he’s holding it affect that?

[@jimc.goodfellas]

As I predicted, Skenes is THAT guy

[@enricopallazzo3244]

Great questions.

[@zsutton6687]

Cool to see how much of a student to the game Skenes is. Perfect example for young pitchers to learn their craft and absorb knowledge. Ninja is probably the only human who has ever asked Livy about her pitch grip lol

[@ChristopherTrower]

Pitching is way more interesting than hitting. IMO

[@haydenanderson2121]

Oh certainly, but you can’t have one without the other.

[@NTG9601]

MLB The Show brought me here 😅 ... Pitched a No No Online Ranked and had to find out who Skenes was after that 😂 ... "Cheddar Baby"

[@ibperson7765]

Loved his Tshirt saying “Jesus Won” earlier

[@garnetmiller1482]

“Using your misses”, kids! Pay attention!
