Shelington still treats games like Grapefruit League games. Why even bother to bring Skenes up? He'll probably be limited to 3 innings per game.

Ortiz channels his inner Jones and gets three outs on 11 pitches. To the 7th, Bucs 1 Mets 0.

Good stuff, 3P. Jones has been nothing short of incredible. Hard to image Skenes being better.

Cruz strikes out again. Has he been taking a bat to the plate?

It's getting to be newsworthy whenever Cruz doesn't strike out.

Bucs can’t score with runners at second and third with two outs. Still 1-0 Bucs midway through seven.

A walk, single, and double tie the game and put runners on second and third.

Ortiz gets a short fly ball to left. Runners hold. Two down.
