-Jack starts with the Pirates and their 8-3 loss to the Cubs, where Paul Skenes had maybe the shakiest start of his career. Jack encourages fans to not overreact to his bad start, but does emphasize that because the team is pretty bad, they essentially need him to pitch like Superman to have a chance to win in his starts.

-Callers chime in on the Buccos, with one caller saying Paul Skenes is the most-overhyped second-year Pittsburgh athlete ever. Jack vehemently disagrees, saying Skenes is one-of-one. An alarming thing, though, was that Henry Davis was the only player from their starting nine today who was drafted by Ben Cherington.

-More callers chime in on the Pirates, as well as the Steelers.
