As long as Paul Skenes is a member of the Pittsburgh Pirates, there will always be teams calling to inquire about acquiring his services. When a player of his caliber is making pennies on the dollar compared to what he is worth and playing for a team that is failing to build a competitive roster around him, it would be irresponsible of other teams not to inquire about him.
"The question gets asked, and it's always respectful," Pirates GM Ben Cherington said at the MLB general managers meetings (via Jorge Castillo of ESPN).
