Kyle Harrison & Paul Skenes Face Off in Pivotal Game

Uh, pretty good pitchers battle set up here tonight, Craig. And it involves a guy that you mentioned yesterday. I completely forgot. And that's Kyle Harrison. The lefty from Milwaukee is actually back here tonight at home, taking on Paul skeins of all folks here. So now Paul skeins, uh, listen, every time we try to bet unders with, uh, with skeins or a hundred green for that matter, it doesn't seem to go all that well. Uh, that total is hovering around seven here tonight, but it'll be interesting. I mean, Harrison's been on the shelf for a little while he's back, uh, in Milwaukee and, uh, you know, we didn't get a whole lot of runs last night. I don't know that we're going to get a whole lot of runs in this one here tonight, but I can tell you this, the pirates bullpen looks a lot better than it was 72 hours ago, that much. I can say it looks better on paper. They've added several names. As we talked about yesterday, specifically Luke Weaver and Camilo Doval, those were two and Duval was earlier in the week. And then they ended up getting Weaver to Lake Barker. So, uh, look, it's put up or shut up time for the pirates. They're certainly not playing their best baseball of the season. It comes at a bad time, but there still is time Joe, for them to get things turned around. Milwaukee, uh, very, very tough to beat as, as we've talked about, a very good team at home. And the other part about this matchup tonight, and yes, you're right. Harrison's back and he was great earlier in the season, but what's up with Paul skeins? Does anybody really know? Like there's a lot of speculation. No one seems to have answers. He's the most perplexing question I would think as far as a pitcher is concerned over the last couple of months, it seems like every time he goes out there, he can't get out of the fifth inning and this is going on now for a while. So I don't know if that's going to change tonight. Of course, there's always going to be speculation about a guy being hurt or a guy tipping pitches. We don't know of anything of that to be true. Still think he's still one of the best pitchers in the game. Maybe it's just Joe. He's not going to have a great season. That's possible too, but tough, tough series for Pittsburgh to have to stay in the race by playing the brewers. The good news for them is that the series will be over eventually, and then they won't have to play them for a, for a bit again, but a tough, tough team to be in Milwaukee. Yeah. Very tough. Again, I think he's, I don't know if he's working on some things. We get, we watched them pitch last time against Cincinnati just seems to be missing a lot of his pitches, leaving them over the center of the plate and, and guys are making him pay. It's just one of those seasons here so far, but Pittsburgh very much alive, still battling here for a wild card spot. Uh, I think that's a game. I'm going to be very interested to see how that turns out here.
