Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes is known to be a man of few words. He didn't mince any on Friday discussing his former manager's firing.

There are otherwise managers who have job security galore. Dave Roberts is tied to the Los Angeles Dodgers through 2029, and Craig Counsell (Chicago Cubs), Alex Cora (Boston Red Sox) and Kevin Cash (Tampa Bay Rays) are locked up as well. Even Aaron Boone, no stranger to the hot seat, got an extension from the New York Yankees in February.

The Pittsburgh Pirates fired manager Derek Shelton on Thursday following a 12-26 start to the season, one of the worst records in baseball. Hours before manager Don Kelly’s debut, pitcher Paul Skenes shared his thoughts on the decision.
