Olivia Dunne jokes about "teaching" Paul Skenes his newest variation - a nasty cutter

Pirates ace Paul Skenes had an exceptional rookie season in 2024, finishing with a 11-3 win/loss record, a 1.96 ERA and 170 strikeouts. His consistent performances earned him his very first All-Star selection, and the prestigious NL Rookie of the Year award.

Looking at his spring training performances in 2025, it appears the 22-year-old has been hard at work perfecting his craft in the offseason, which spells trouble for hitters.

In his Spring Training training debut on Saturday against the Baltimore Orioles, Skenes pitched three innings, striking out four batters. He also showed off his cutter for the very first time, when facing lefty Ryan O'Hearn.

"Just what Paul Skenes needed was a NEW weapon. 😳" the Instagram post was captioned

With the new baseball season inching ever closer, Pirates fans will be hoping Skenes continues on the upward trajectory he has been on ever since he made his major league debut in May 2024.
