You might like to check out some of the more recent substantial commentaries that argue for Pauline authorship, such as Philip H. Towner (2006), Ben Witherington (2006), William Mounce (WBC: 2007), George W. Knight (1992) and especially Luke Timothy Johnson (The First and Second Letters to Timothy, Doubleday 2001) who has an outstanding section on re-assessing authorship leading to a challenge that “the grounds for declaring [the PE] inauthentic are so flawed as to seriously diminish the validity of the scholarly ‘majority opinion’ [that they are pseudepigraphal].”
