Beschrijving

The Pittsburgh Pirates fell below .500 after an embarrassing 11-2 loss to the Athletics. DiNardo and Neil discuss a complete failure from the players, coaching staff and front office as poor defense, a lifeless offense and another rough Jared Jones start buried the Pirates early. They also examine the continued mishandling of Carmen Mlodzinski, Marcell Ozuna’s place on the roster and whether this team can survive the injuries to Oneil Cruz and Konnor Griffin.

Pirates’ Bubba Chandler Has Found His Delivery Again

Bubba Chandler’s final line did not reflect how well he pitched in the Pittsburgh Pirates’ 8-0 loss to the Phillies. Chandler reached the seventh inning for the first time in his career, issued only two walks and showed signs that an important mechanical adjustment is starting to pay off. Alex Stumpf breaks down Chandler’s improved arm slot, his renewed fastball command and why his recent progress feels different from the control problems that defined Tyler Glasnow’s time in Pittsburgh. With several questions surrounding the Pirates’ rotation, Chandler could become one of their most important pitchers during the second half.

Pirates Offense Vanishes in 8-0 Loss to Phillies

The Pittsburgh Pirates were completely overmatched by Cristopher Sánchez in an 8-0 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies. The offense finished with only four hits, Bryan Reynolds’ 34-game on-base streak ended and Marcell Ozuna struck out three times. Jim and Tyler discuss why Bubba Chandler pitched much better than his final line, Don Kelly’s decision to leave him in during the seventh inning and another disastrous performance from the Pirates bullpen. They also discuss Esmerlyn Valdez reaching base three times, the lineup’s continued struggles against left-handed pitching and Wednesday’s Paul Skenes versus Zack Wheeler matchup. 0:00 Pirates lose 8-0 3:17 Bubba Chandler’s misleading final line 6:32 Did Don Kelly leave Bubba in too long? 10:13 Another bullpen disaster 16:51 Cristopher Sánchez shuts down the offense 17:48 Esmerlyn Valdez stays hot 19:46 Marcell Ozuna continues to struggle 24:40 Why is Billy Cook still playing? 27:18 Paul Skenes versus Zack Wheeler Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Pirates Offense Is Reaching Lumber Company Levels

The Pirates entered 2026 hoping an average offense would be enough to support their pitching. Instead, the offense has become the strength of the team. After finishing 2025 with an 82 wRC+, the Pirates are up to 110 this season, ranking second in baseball and producing at a level comparable to the 1971 Lumber Company. Alex Stumpf breaks down the historic improvement, the depth throughout the lineup and why falling behind no longer feels like an automatic loss. Alex also examines Endy Rodriguez’s simplified swing, the early impact of Esmerlyn Valdez and Konnor Griffin, and why unexpected production from the rookies has raised the ceiling of the entire offense.

HUGE WIN! Pirates Come Back & Hold on in Wild 11-7 Victory Over Phillies

The Pirates looked dead after falling behind 5-0, but their offense completely flipped the game in an 11-7 win over the Phillies. Esmerlyn Valdez homered for the fourth straight game and reached base four times, Endy Rodriguez crushed a three-run homer in the ninth and Braxton Ashcraft battled through six innings after a rough start. Jim and Neil break down the six-run fifth inning, Valdez’s continued breakout, Endy taking control of the starting catcher job, Ashcraft’s ability to settle in and a bullpen that nearly gave another game away. 00:00 Pirates survive a wild 11-7 win 02:25 Esmerlyn Valdez sparks the comeback 07:20 Braxton Ashcraft battles through six 12:35 Pirates score six in the fifth 15:15 This offense can beat teams in different ways 18:45 Evan Sisk escapes against Kyle Schwarber 22:10 Gregory Soto and Johan Ramirez struggle 27:25 Endy Rodriguez delivers the biggest swing 30:20 Pirates offense continues its June surge 34:20 Bubba Chandler faces Christopher Sánchez Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Pirates Suddenly Have an Elite MLB Offense

The Pirates have played 84 games and now rank third in MLB in runs and RBI, second in OPS and OBP, and fourth in slugging. Jim and DiNardo break down how this offense has become one of the best in baseball and how sustainable these numbers might be. Brandon Lowe has already reached 20 home runs, while rookie Esmerlyn Valdez has made an immediate impact with five homers and a 1.001 OPS through his first 15 games.
