The New York Yankees' $218 million ace could join his Pittsburgh Pirates counterpart after a shocking announcement.

Paul Skenes pitched like the ace he is against the New York Mets' star-studded lineup on Monday, allowing just one run on six hits with six strikeouts in six innings. However, the Pittsburgh Pirates' bullpen and offense came up short in the 4-3 loss.

The stars were out on Monday night as Dunne was joined by Camille Kostek, Ellie Thumann and Xandra, who each threw out a ceremonial first pitch.

The Pirates are among MLB’s worst teams, but with their great equalizer on the mound for six innings Monday night they stood a chance against the Mets.

Paul Skenes did not mince words when speaking about the Pittsburgh Pirates firing manager Derek Shelton after a miserable start to the season.
