Skenes earns lofty rating for Tuesday turn at St. Louis

Today's Overview/Schedule/Weather: Tuesday's slate is a full one with 15 games. Mostly dry weather is expected across the map of cities in play. Bryan Woo, Paul Skenes, and Max Fried stand out as the top mound options on a day skewed toward a lot of choices in the mid-range of Match-up scores.

Notable Starts:
Paul Skenes is lined up for Major League start No. 6. The Pirates rookie right-hander has been remarkably consistent thus far. His 99-velo stuff is accompanied by a 50% GB, 29% K-BB, and hard contact has been in check. On Tuesday, Skenes faces the worst offense he has seen thus far, that of the St. Louis Cardinals. The Cardinals' .678 OPS ranks 24th in MLB. STL owns a .656 OPS over its last 10 games.
