Part 6/8:
The pattern echoes that of Garrett Cole, the star pitcher who was drafted by the Pirates only to leave for the Yankees after showcasing his talent. Skins, touted as a top draft pick, appears destined for a similar fate, whether this season or in the near future. The idea that he might stay long-term is optimistic at best; the likelihood is that he's eyeing a departure, whether willingly or through franchise trades.
Even though Skins is currently a pirate, the whispers of his discontent and aspirations to move on are growing louder. It’s unlikely that any player would openly admit a desire to leave, but subtle hints—like conversations with friends or teammates—paint a different picture.
