Episode 313 of Bucco Bantr is here!

We break down the Pirates series vs the New York Mets as Pittsburgh drops 2 of 3, but there are still plenty of positives to take away. The new additions are already making an impact — Brandon Lowe is off to a scorching start with 3 home runs in the first 3 games, and Ryan O’Hearn is producing exactly as advertised at the plate.

On the pitching side, it was a mixed bag. Paul Skenes had the toughest outing of his young career, while Mitch Keller and Carmen Mlodzinski delivered strong performances in Games 1 and 2 to keep the Pirates competitive.

We also preview the upcoming road series against the Cincinnati Reds, diving into key pitching matchups and what the Pirates need to do to bounce back.
