We’re going live to break down another rough series for the Pirates—this time against the Mets. The offense continues to look lifeless, with the usually-reliable Bryan Reynolds being the main culprit. We’ll talk through what’s going wrong, what changes (if any) should be made, and whether it’s time to bring up some help from Indianapolis with Horwitz, Gonzales, and Endy all nearing a return.

We’ll also touch on another update to the Bucco Bricks fiasco, Paul Skenes being named to Team USA for the 2026 World Baseball Classic, and the latest MLB Pipeline Top 100 update. Then we’ll close things out with a look ahead to a tough Phillies series and who needs to show something to stay on this roster.

Jump in the chat and join the conversation—let’s talk Pirates baseball, live and unfiltered.
