Skenes or Bust! Why Schlittler Isn't Untouchable in a Trade!
Update: 2025-11-12
Description
BT & Sal are in complete agreement on one fiery topic: The Yankees (and Mets) must be all-in to acquire Pirates ace Paul Skenes, who is under team control through the 2029 season. Sal argues that Pittsburgh must trade him within the next few years to maximize value, likely with three seasons left. The hosts clash with caller "Frankie from Bay Ridge," who insists that Yankees prospect Cam Schlittler is "more proven" and shouldn't be included in any deal for Skenes.
The hosts vehemently disagree, arguing that Skenes is a "transformational superstar" whose every outing is equivalent to Schlittler's best playoff performance, making any package involving top prospects like Schlittler, Spencer Jones, and Jasson Domínguez a no-brainer. The segment concludes by quickly revisiting the Pete Alonso contract discussion, prompted by a caller confusing Alonso's value with Bo Bichette's.
