Paul Skenes and Buster discuss how Skenes transitioned out of hitting at LSU, handling media attention, his freshman year at the Air Force Academy and the first time he hit triple digits on the radar gun. Next, episode two of The Hader Rules. Then, Cubs manger Craig Counsell offers his perspective on Josh Hader’s usage rules and his contract with the Astros. Then, David Cone talks about tarp sliding, the Cubs and Cardinals searching for identity, Aaron Judge’s slug, and Skenes’ polish. Later, Sarah Langs plays The Numbers Game.
