Paul Skenes gets pulled after throwing a no-hitter through 7. Sitting at 99 pitches. Baseball going to baseball. Such an arbitrary number 100 pitches is and costs a potential special moment for the kid/league.

Better for him to not have a no hitter and not need elbow surgery, imo.
Pitching is a max-effort business now, and that much max effort is bad for your body.
Drives me nuts to see Teoscar doing well with other teams. He was always a good player.
Was he? He could always hit home runs. He was streaky. To me that just screams undisciplined. He was always going for the bombs. When he was working it was happening. When it wasn't he was swinging at everything and missing badly. His fielding was also shaky. DH is a role best suited to him, but when he wasn't doing well he was a pain to watch.
Happy for Teo. You can tell he really wanted to win...camera is expecting to see Teoscar smile when Witt was coming back but he was stone cold and he just said he was happy Witt missed.
Bobby Witt's mom wanted Bobby to win more than he did.

As we've talked about the day to day comfort he (and Gurriell)have and would give Vladdy would have made Vladdy a better hitter these past two years and the team better. That overrules the fielding averageness.
