Episode Details

The Pittsburgh Pirates just got swept at home by the St. Louis Cardinals, dropped five straight games, and fell back to 16-16 after what had been a promising April. So now the question is simple: are the Pirates actually in trouble?

On this episode of NS9LIVE!, DiNardo, Tyler, and Jim each bring one reason why Pirates fans should not be overly concerned and one reason why the sky might actually be falling. The conversation hits on the thin margins around this team, the state of the NL Central, bullpen concerns, Don Kelly’s recent decision-making, Paul Skenes not stopping the skid, Oneil Cruz, Bryan Reynolds, roster depth, and whether this team is simply showing us exactly who they are.

The Pirates are still right in the mix, but this losing streak exposed a lot.
