News
	Paul Skenes allowed just two runs on four hits, walked one, and struck out 10 in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Marlins. David Leisering Sun, Jun 14th	The Mets are optioning Jonah Tong to Triple-A Syracuse. Ari Koslow Wed, Jun 3rd
	Paul Skenes allowed two runs on six hits, walked two, and struck out seven over six innings on Tuesday as the Pirates dropped a 12-3 decision to the Dodgers. David Leisering Wed, Jun 10th	Senga (back) could return from the injured list as soon as next week, leaving Tong without a guaranteed major-league spot. The Mets could shift him to the bullpen for a longer look against big-league hitters. Across three bulk-relief assignments this season, Tong has a 3.60 ERA, 1.50 WHIP, and 7:7 K:BB over 10 innings, with walks limiting his ability to work deep into games. Bruno Mulé Wed, Jun 3rd
	Paul Skenes allowed three earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out seven over 4.2 innings in Wednesday's loss to the Astros. Jesse Garcia Thu, Jun 4th	Senga (back) is expected to return to the Mets' rotation soon, which could push Tong back to Triple-A, where he struggled earlier this season. Tong entered Wednesday as a bulk reliever behind opener Huascar Brazoban, who threw one inning, in his second such appearance of the year. Bruno Mulé Thu, May 28th
	Paul Skenes allowed three runs (one earned) on four hits in 5.1 innings, while walking three and striking out 10, as the Pirates lost to the Cubs, 7-2, on Thursday. David Leisering Fri, May 29th	Jonah Tong will make a bulk relief appearance on Wednesday against the Reds. Ari Koslow Tue, May 26th
	Paul Skenes allowed four runs on nine hits, walked one, and struck out only two in five innings of work against the Blue Jays on Saturday. The Pirates lost, 5-2, in Toronto. David Leisering Sun, May 24th	Jonah Tong is expected to pitch again on Wednesday against the Reds. Ari Koslow Sat, May 23rd
Notes
	Paul Skenes lived up to the hype in 2025, overpowering hitters with elite velocity and swing-and-miss stuff while maintaining strong run prevention in his first extended MLB action. Sure, his record was 10-10, and he probably could have been a 20-game winner on almost any other team. His 2026 projections remain aggressive on strikeouts and ratios, and he is expected to pitch almost 200 innings after throwing 187 in 2025. The year-over-year takeaway is how quickly his command stabilized, limiting walks more than expected for a power arm. Skenes profiles as a high-impact fantasy SP1 whose value is driven by dominance rather than volume alone. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros
