00:00The NL Cy Young tracker, according to people who think they know,
00:05this is who they say are the top five names for the NL Cy Young right now.
00:10Paul Skeens, of course, in the top slot.
00:14Zach Wheeler, Yamamoto, Logan Webb, and McKenzie, don't call me Tipper Gore.
00:21Your top five Cy Young tracker in the National League.
00:24Yeah, listen, I don't deny that Gore has struck out the most guys in baseball.
00:30But to me, it's about how many runs do you give up?
00:37You know, there's a lot of guys that strike out guys.
00:40And there's a lot of guys that strike out guys and don't have a winning record
00:45because their team doesn't score runs.
00:48Now, the Pirates have every time this guy schemes pitches, they lose.
00:53But I'll tell you this much.
00:55The guy doesn't give up any runs.
00:57He gives up one run a game.
00:58So, he's the most incredible pitcher right now in baseball still.
01:06And that includes, and I'm going to say it,
01:08the only people that can even touch him right now are Max Fried and Skubel, right?
01:15So, guess who's starting the National League All-Star game again for the second year in a row?
01:20It'll be Skeens.
01:21Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me if he's in that slot again in Atlanta coming up.
01:31You know, I know.
01:33Yeah.
01:35You know, there really isn't.
01:36I don't think.
01:37Look, they always put Wheeler up there.
01:40Wheeler's good.
01:41I just, Skeens has been better so far this year.
01:44I don't think there's any denying it.
01:46I mean, I think Yamamoto's been a little bit better than Wheeler, to be quite honest with you.
01:49I'd put Yamamoto probably in the second.
01:51I would agree.
01:52I would agree with that.
01:53Skeens has already beaten Wheeler and the Phillies.
01:56And they've, you know, swept the Phillies.
02:00And, like, he's the best pitcher in the National League, Skeens.
02:03Yep.
02:04He is.
02:05He's been that, that's for sure.
02:06Start the best.
02:07That's what will happen.
02:08Start the best.
02:09Did they not start him last year because he was the best?
02:12He was.
02:13The phenom coming in and starting that game.
