How the Pirates should handle Paul Skenes and Henry Davis

All eyes on No. 1. Why wouldn’t they be?

The Pittsburgh Pirates selected first overall in two of the last three MLB Drafts. General Manager Ben Cherington picked two of the most accomplished college players of the past 10 years. We’re starting to see why.

Paul Skenes and Henry Davis are the two most talked about players in MLB Spring Training. We know Skenes will begin the season in the Minor Leagues. Davis’ status remains unclear.

What should be done rivals what will actually be done, but both players may simultaneously force the Buccos’ hands.
