Ep.162: Phils Should Thank Acuna, Skenes Debut, Start/Bench/Cut

On this week’s episode of Long Gone, the boys debate whether the Phillies are legit or not. They’re currently in first in the NL East, two games above the Braves. Is Ronald Acuna Jr.’s lackluster play so far this season the reason the Phils sit atop the division? Pittsburgh’s top prospect Paul Skenes recently made his debut. While the LSU phenom has a lot to work on, there is no doubt he can throw absolute gas– regularly hitting above 100 MPH. Is Skenes for real, or is he a flash in the pan? The boys bring back Start, Bench or Cut again, working their way through the Past, Present and Future of the game. They then round out the show with Fantasy Factory and Collection Corner.
