Podcast appearances and mentions of andrew mccutchen

Jack opens up his binder to recaps his first visit to Pittsburgh's PNC Park in this solo episode. Will he get belt-whipped by stadium security? Launched over an outfield wall, sending Andrew McCutchen to one knee? Write “BB” in his scorecard after a Jackson Chourio at-bat? Spoiler alert: One of these three never-before-seen occurrences will happen on this very special solo episode!

There is still joy for people in this season. Joe and Austin think Henry Davis needs to play almost everyday and Dan agrees. Andrew McCutchen has been a part of the solution, but might need to put on a glove. Dan thinks that Davis could take over for Joey Bart. Oneil Cruz hits the ball harder than anyone else and Dan compares it to a pitcher throwing 99 MPH.

Hour 3 with Joe Starkey: Joe and Austin think Henry Davis needs to play almost everyday and Dan agrees. Andrew McCutchen has been a part of the solution, but might need to put on a glove. Oneil Cruz hits the ball harder than anyone else and Dan compares it to a pitcher throwing 99 MPH, you just need to control it. Gerry Dulac doesn't think Will Howard has a chance to start. Who will start for the Browns? Gerry thinks Joe Flacco. The Steelers would likely have to come close on a Myles Garrett deal for T.J. Watt.

Hour 2 with Joe Starkey: Are you still able to enjoy the good moments in this Pirates season? We want Davis to play almost everyday, even if that means Joey Bart and Andrew McCutchen have to play less. Roman Wilson spoke at Steelers OTAs on how he's motivated to make a statement and to keep working. Pat Freiermuth isn't concerned about the WR room and thinks they have some good players on the team.

Post-Gazette Pirates insider Noah Hiles previews the team's upcoming series with the Cincinnati Reds at PNC Park. Can Mitch Keller, Andrew Heaney and Bailey Falter keep the struggling offense in the game against this relatively average NL Central rival? Will Oneil Cruz, Andrew McCutchen and the offense get an opportunity to turn things around against this pitching staff, including starters like Nick Lodolo, Nick Martinez and Brady Singer? And why is Austin Hayes the bat Pirates pitching will most need to look out for? Noah tackles those questions and more.

North Shore Nine Postgame Show Powered by Primanti Brother's. The Pirates dropped another lifeless one in Philly as Zack Wheeler diced up the lineup for 7 shutout innings. Bryan Reynolds broke up the shutout with a 9th-inning homer, but it was far too little, far too late. Oneil Cruz and Andrew McCutchen combined to go 0-for-7 with 6 strikeouts, and Carmen Mlodzinski once again failed to pitch deep into a game. The offense has now scored fewer than five runs in 22 straight games, and fans are running out of ways to describe just how bad it's gotten. Tyler and Ryan break it all down—Cruz's concerning at-bats, Horwitz's return (and quick hook), the endless carousel at first base, and why it's time to shut down the Mlodzinski starting experiment for good. Is there any real help on the way, or are we just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic?

Anthony Franco joins Darragh McDonald to discuss Rafael Devers refusing to play first base and where that leaves the Red Sox roster moving forward, the Pirates firing Derek Shelton, the Rockies firing Bud Black, and how the Diamondbacks will find playing time for Jordan Lawlar in their already crowded lineup.Listener question topics include whether the Orioles should extend Cedric Mullins or Tomoyuki Sugano, how real the Twins are following their big winning streak, if the Tigers can keep it up, the struggles of Jordan Walker in St. Louis and if Andrew McCutchen could be a target to replace him, and whether the Mets are better at getting results from pitchers outside their organization than their internal guys. 

Post-Gazette Pirates insider Noah Hiles previews the club's series against the New York Mets at Citi Field. Can Paul Skenes, Mitch Keller and Bailey Falter build on the series win against the Atlanta Braves and stifle a powerful Mets lineup that includes names like Pete Alonso, Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor? And how will Andrew McCutchen, Ke'Bryan Hayes and the offense handle a Mets pitching staff that's been better than expected? Especially if Oneil Cruz misses more time? Noah tackles those questions and more.

Joey Bart is a good player who has become Ben Cherington's best trade acquisition. Bob wants to see Henry Davis get considerable at-bats, but where will he play? You're not benching Bart or Andrew McCutchen and would have to move them to other positions.

The Pirates finally delivered a clean, complete game at PNC Park — and we're breaking it all down. Alexander Canario and Jared Triolo both went yard, Bailey Falter shoved through six scoreless, and the bullpen locked it down as Pittsburgh shut out Atlanta 3-2. We'll talk about Oneil Cruz's rocket single, Andrew McCutchen's clutch RBI double, and how the defense and pitching stepped up big time. Plus, we'll dig into what this performance means moving forward and how the lineup can keep building momentum. Watch the full postgame show for reactions, analysis, and fan takes on this shutout win!

Pirates legend Jim Leyland joined the show. Jim said it is always a sad day when a manager gets let go and feels for Derek Shelton being the man out of a job. That being said, he's thrilled for Don Kelly, one of his pupils, getting a big opportunity. Jim's advice to Kelly was to be himself and let the players do their jobs too. Jim hopes that Don can ease some tension in the clubhouse and said you always have to earn it at this level. Jim said you have to do everything you can for the players and if they don't perform, it's time to take them to task. Jim wants to see the Pirates get a little bit creative offensively to cause a spark. The guys asked Jim about consistency in the lineup and how it can impact the usual players. Jim talked about Don's playing experience and how playing every single position will help him with the team. Jim said you can plan for a lot of things in a game, but you can't script it. Jim doesn't believe in the analytics department much and said a lot of his success came more from instinct, watching the game, and working with is assistant coaches. Jim expressed the importance of not overloading the players with too much information and just letting them play the game. Other advice from Jim to Don was to hire an experienced bench coach. The Jim Leyland chat got us talking about cigs. We also heard the words of Andrew McCutchen following the firing of Derek Shelton. Donny Football Debrief – Poni has Steelers fans up in arms yet again about a young QB.

Post-Gazette Pirates insiders Noah Hiles and Colin Beazley break down the Pirates' series sweep, their second in a row, at the hands of the St. Louis Cardinals, which concluded Wednesday afternoon with a 5-0 loss, their seventh in a row. The conversation starts with a rundown of the last six years of the Ben Cherington and Derek Shelton era, with some surprise that a season with moderately expectations — internally, at least — has gone the way it has. Is it time for a managerial change or in the front office? Then Noah describes what he saw on his trip to St. Louis and how bad the vibes have gotten in the Pirates clubhouse. What went wrong during the sweep? Is Paul Skenes pitching well enough? What can Pirates bats like Andrew McCutchen, Oneil Cruz and Bryan Reynolds do so the team stops squandering quality starts from pitchers like Skenes and Mitch Keller. Colin and Noah finish by looking ahead at this weekend's three-game set against the Braves and pondering what a successful series looks like.

Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise reacts to the day in Pittsburgh sports news live around 5 p.m. Eastern. He welcomes Washington Wild Things general manager Tony Buselli to analyze the Pirates' most recent losing funk, which included a loss to the St. Louis Cardinals on Monday night. Is this team fixable around stars like Paul Skenes, Oneil Cruz and Andrew McCutchen? Does manager Derek Shelton have the right answers? Or could his time in the dugout be running short? And what should general manager Ben Cherington do with struggling hitters like Tommy Pham, Jack Suwinski and Jared Triolo?

Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise reacts to the day in Pittsburgh sports news live around 5 p.m. Eastern. Is former Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger underrated compared to names like Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Peyton Manning and others as former Baltimore Ravens rival Terrell Suggs suggested on a podcast recently? Or does he get his just due around the league? Paul offers thoughts on that topic, plus the continuing fallout from the NFL draft and general manager Omar Khan's selection of names like Derrick Harmon, Kaleb Johnson, Jack Sawyer and Will Howard. Then later, Paul reacts to the Pirates' weekend sweep at the hands of the San Diego Padres and ponders the future of manager Derek Shelton. Should he be coaching for his job over the next couple of weeks? Will Oneil Cruz, Andrew McCutchen and the offense ever catch up to Paul Skenes, Mitch Keller and the pitching? And is there any hope left for this season with the team already more than 10 games under the .500 mark?

Post-Gazette Pirates insider Noah Hiles reacts live to the club's West Coast road trip and looks ahead to a three-game set with the Chicago Cubs to close out a frustrating April. How hot can Andrew McCutchen stay now now that Bryan Reynolds is fully healthy to play defense, making more room for McCutchen in the lineup? Can Bailey Falter turn his early-season inconsistency around with prospects like Bubba Chandler pushing for time in MLB? And how much heat does Derek Shelton deserve for using Colin Holderman, spoiling a series that began with a promising Paul Skenes start against the Dodgers?

The Pirates drop 2 of 3 in L.A., but there are signs of life: Oneil Cruz is still on fire, Andrew McCutchen looks as steady as ever, and the Bubba Chandler watch may be officially underway. We break down the weird Colin Holderman moment from Saturday, David Bednar's return to the mound, and what Cruz's recent stretch could mean for his long-term outlook. Is Cutch still one of the team's best hitters? And is it time to seriously consider calling up Bubba? Plus: We preview the upcoming home series against the Cubs.

Post-Gazette insiders Noah Hiles and Colin Beazley recap the Pirates' series victory in Anaheim, Calif., over the Angels. The recap begins with a look at Andrew Heaney's early dominance, then transitions into highlighting the consistent production the Pirates are now receiving from the top third of their lineup from names like Oneil Cruz, Bryan Reynolds and Andrew McCutchen. The duo then discusses the roster moves made by the team Thursday afternoon, which included Jack Suwinski being optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis and Mike Burrows and Matt Gorski being called up to the big-league club. The video is concluded with a series preview for the Pirates' upcoming three-game set against the Dodgers this weekend. How will Paul Skenes fare in his homecoming game against Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts and the defending World Series champions? Can he outpitch Yoshinobu Yamamoto?

The Nats topped the Orioles 4-3 on Wednesday night for their fourth win in the past five games.  Mark & Al leadoff with James Wood, who immediately hit his 8th homer of the season, tying him for the NL lead.  It was the hardest hit homer by a National in Navy Yard in the Statecast Era (2015-present).(07:20) CJ Abrams played all nine innings on Wednesday in his second rehab start in Harrisburg.  There is a chance that he will return to Washington's lineup in Thursday's series finale.  Hear what Davey Martinez's reply was to Mark's question about which lefty bat will be in the leadoff spot when Abrams is back.(11:15) Josh Bell also homered in the 1st inning, his 4th of the year.  Bell is still struggling at the plate as his OPS sits at a disappointing .577.(15:00) Trevor Williams only gave up one run in five innings of work. Williams has made five starts thus far and after a slow start, he has thrown back to back solid outings.(19:45) Four relievers combined to take over after Williams departed.  They inherited a 3-1 lead and the O's tied up it in the top of the 8th before Luis Garcia Jr.s go ahead sacrifice fly.  Kyle Finnegan then completed the save, he is nine for nine this year and leads the NL.(26:30) Andrew McCutchen recently tweeted that he knows Jorge Lopez was not intentionally throwing at him last week in Pittsburgh.  So why were Davey and Lopez each suspended?

In his weekly Pirates mailbag, insider Noah Hiles answers readers questions while the team plays on the West Coast. Will hot-hitting Enmanuel Valdez have a spot when Spencer Horwitz and Nick Gonzales return from injuries? Will Henry Davis go back to Triple-A when Endy Rodriguez comes back? And was Andrew McCutchen forced on Ben Cherington and Derek Shelton?

Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey joins host Adam Bittner to give his thoughts on the Steelers, the NFL draft, the end of the Penguins' season and the Pirates' West Coast road trip. On the football side, is Derrick Harmon the most uncomplicated pick for GM Omar Khan and coach Mike Tomlin? What about Kenneth Grant and Walter Nolen along the defensive line? And where do QBs Sheduer Sanders and Jaxson Dart fit into that conversation? Later, the duo reacts to Penguins GM Kyle Dubas appearing to signal in post-season comments Tuesday that he's looking more toward 2026-27 than next season in terms of competing meaningfully in the Eastern Conference. Is he being too passive with Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Kris Letang on the roster? How aggressively should he shop in NHL free agency this summer? Or move bad contracts owed to Tristan Jarry, Erik Karlsson and Ryan Graves? And where does coach Mike Sullivan figure into all of it? Then finally, in a segment airing on the Post-Gazette's Pirates YouTube channel, the guys react to Andrew McCutchen's angst about his playing time. Does he deserve better from manager Derek Shelton and GM Ben Cherington? How much longer does McCutchen plan to play? And is Shelton's lineup turnover an overall problem as well? Our duo tackles those questions, then discusses the team's mediocre record when Paul Skenes is on the mound and pressure on owner Bob Nutting after loud “sell the team” chants continued during the last homestand.

Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise reacts to the day in Pittsburgh sports news live around 5 p.m. Eastern. With the NFL draft looming, will Steelers GM Omar Khan and coach Mike Tomlin commit to George Pickens and T.J. Watt in the end? Or could one or both players still move on draft day if the team doesn't believe it will re-sign them for 2026 and beyond? What are Paul's final thoughts who the first-round pick will ultimately be? A defensive lineman like Kenneth Grant, Walter Nolen or Derrick Harmon? A QB like Shedeur Sanders of Jaxson Dart? Or someone from another position group like Omarion Hampton at RB or Jahdae Barron? And on the baseball front, what should we make of Andrew McCutchen's big night for the Pirates in a much-needed victory against the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday night in Anaheim, Calif.?

Draft Day. We started with George Pickens and the latest around the Steelers receiver who is up to his old tricks on social media as we approach a draft where he is surrounded by trade rumors. Are the Steelers better off moving on from Pickens? If it's a way for the Steelers to recoup an extra pick tomorrow night, the guys think the team should do it. Poni is baffled by the amount of George Pickens supporters out there. PG columnist Jason Mackey joined the show. Jason and the guys recapped the Pirates win against the Angels last night. Jason got into his column about Bob Nutting fixing his baseball team instead of the PR problems. Jason does think there could be a mark close to us in which we see Derek Shelton let go, but the wins from the last two nights certainly helped his matters. Jason talked about the lineup stuff and why Andrew McCutchen is voicing some of his annoyance on social media. Jason said the lineup is so matchup based and the Pirates hunt that stuff at all costs, instead of keeping things consistent.

The Pirates kicked off their road trip with a bang, taking down the Angels 9–3 behind a vintage Andrew McCutchen homer and solid nights from Joey Bart and Ke'Bryan Hayes. DiNardo and Ryan break down the offensive explosion, Bailey Falter's strong start, and what this win says about the team's current momentum.

Zangrilli thinks teams are afraid of what could happen if they go against analytics, so they hide behind the data to give a reason for their moves. Dan's thoughts on off days. Andrew McCutchen called out David Todd on Twitter for saying McCutchen shouldn't play that much or should be traded!

Andrew McCutchen crushed a three-run home run to guide the Pirates offense and win 9-3 against the Angels. Shedeur Sanders would be happy to be drafted by the Steelers. We don't know if he has a good enough arm and he takes too many sacks. Mike Tomlin gave a detailed explanation of what he saw from Sanders, but Tomlin also said on Tuesday he likes to throw smoke screens.

Post-Gazette columnist Paul Zeise reacts to the day in Pittsburgh sports news live around 5 p.m. Eastern. What are the Steelers' biggest NFL draft needs beyond quarterback and defensive line? Assuming they take names like Derrick Harmon, Kenneth Grant, Walter Nolen, Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart early, where should they look next? Is it cornerback and options including Shavon Revel Jr., Azareye'h Thomas or Trey Amos? What about running backs like TreVeyon Henderson, Dylan Sampson or Bhayshul Tuten? Or even receiver and players including Jayden Higgins, Jack Bech or Tre Harris? Paul tackles those questions, then previews an important series for the Pirates against the Los Angeles Angels, in which Oneil Cruz, Andrew McCutchen and the offense hope to get on track.

Post-Gazette Pirates insider Noah Hiles previews the team's three-game series on the road against the Los Angeles Angels this week. With the team in a slide, will Derek Shelton seek to find more consistency with the lineups he puts out, eschewing the strategy of off days we've seen for players like Oneil Cruz and Andrew McCutchen already this season? What can we expect from the Pirates' probable starters in this series — Bailey Falter, Andrew Heaney and Carmen Mlodzinski? Is this Mlodzinski's last chance to prove he can be a viable option as a starting pitcher? With the Angels likely to start former Pirate Tyler Anderson and former Pirates farmhand Jose Soriano this series, what does it say about the current state of the organization in Pittsburgh? Noah gives his scouting report of the Angels, who so far this season have showed power at the plate thanks to names like Mike Trout, Logan O'Hoppe, Kyren Paris and Taylor Ward but have struggled out of the bullpen. Noah answers those questions and more.

Post-Gazette Pirates insider Noah Hiles reacts live to the club's weekend sweep at the hands of the Cleveland Guardians and looks ahead to a West Coast swing against the Los Angeles Angels and Dodgers. Can the club survive a schedule that gets tougher in the coming weeks? Does manager Derek Shelton deserve the scrutiny he's getting for lineup decisions related to Oneil Cruz, Andrew McCutchen, Jack Suwinski, Tommy Pham, Alexander Canario and others? How much hope should fans have in underlying statistic that suggest an offensive turnaround should be coming at some point? And when will this team begin to take advantage of strong starts from names including Mitch Keller and Paul Skenes? Noah tackles those topics and more.

Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise reacts to the day in Pittsburgh sports news live around 5 p.m. Eastern. What should we make of reports from ESPN's Adam Schefter that the Steelers are looking to trade back in the first round of the NFL draft? Would that be the right move for GM Omar Khan and coach Mike Tomlin to try to recoup some draft capital? And could they still land speculated targets including Derrick Harmon, Kenneth Grant, Walter Nolen, Shedeur Sanders, Jaxson Dart of Omarion Hampton in the latter portions of the first round? Later, Paul gives his thoughts on the latest in the wait for Aaron Rodgers to sign with the team. Will he be under contract by the draft? And if not, how long after it should the Steelers wait before moving on with Mason Rduolph? Paul tackles those football topics, then weighs in on the Pirates' rough weekend, during which they were swept by the Cleveland Guardians. How much heat does manager Derek Shelton deserve for questionable lineup choices with Oneil Cruz, Andrew McCutchen and others? And can they turn their struggles around on the West Coast this week?

The Pirates were just swept again… and now even Andrew McCutchen is acknowledging the fans' frustration. In this episode of Bucco Brew, we break down Kevin Gorman's column and Cutch's honest comments on the “Sell the Team” chants — and what it says about the state of the franchise. We then dive into the growing tension between Pirates fans and Bob Nutting, and ask the hard questions:

Hour 1 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: It could have been a great weekend for the Pirates but quickly fell apart against Cleveland. Andrew McCutchen took to social media to take a shot at Derek Shelton for not putting him in the lineup. Will the Pirates made a big move?

It's already unrealistic to consider the Pirates a playoff team. The Pirates had a difficult weekend capped by Saturday's loss on Paul Skenes bobblehead day. Andrew McCutchen took to social media to voice his frustration over not being in the lineup.

Jason thinks Bob Nutting is the biggest heel for some fans. George Pickens, Tristan Jarry, Ryan Graves, and Erik Karlsson are heels for some people. Some of the babyfaces include Paul Skenes, Andrew McCutchen, Sidney Crosby, Cam Heyward, and T.J. Watt.

Hour 3 with Jason Mackey: Jason thinks Bob Nutting is the biggest heel for some fans. George Pickens, Tristan Jarry, Ryan Graves, and Erik Karlsson are heels for some people. Some of the babyfaces include Paul Skenes, Andrew McCutchen, Sidney Crosby, Cam Heyward, and T.J. Watt. The Bechtold Breakdown - Jaxson Dart will now NOT attend the draft. Penn State football's outlook if they grab a top receiver in the portal.

The Nats lost 6-1 on Wednesday night in Pittsburgh. Mark (Live from PNC Park) & Al recap the hectic bottom of the 7th that saw the benches & bullpens clear shortly before an Oneil Cruz Grand Slam broke the game open.  Jorge Lopez was ejected after throwing inside on Andrew McCutchen and that was presumed to be retaliation for Paul DeJong getting hit by a pitch in the face on Tuesday night.(13:10) The Cruz Grand Slam came against Eduardo Salazar who relieved  the ejected Lopez.  Salazar has had a bad series and his ERA this season is a staggering 7.56.  Salazar has options remaining and is a candidate to be demoted in the near future.(17:00) Mitchell Parker had a fourth straight quality start to begin his 2025.  The lefty only allowed one run in six innings of work on Wednesday.  Parker's ERA is an extremely impressive 1.85 and has been the team's best pitcher so far.(20:10) Davey Martinez confirmed that DJ Herz has undergone Tommy John surgery and is out for the year.  Herz was placed on the IL just a few days prior to Opening Day.(23:00) The hosts reset the ever increasing increasing amount of injuries within the organization. 

The Nats were dealt a curve ball Thursday morning when they learned shortly before the matinee that Davey Martinez was immediately suspended for one game as a result of Jorge Lopez throwing inside on Andrew McCutchen on Wednesday night (Lopez appealed his three game suspension). Mark (Live from Pittsburgh) & Al discuss how curious of a decision MLB made in opting to suspend Davey. All of this began with Paul DeJong getting hit in the face on Tuesday night, which resulted in him landing on the IL with a fractured nose. (14:00) The offense was quite anemic in 1-0 loss on Thursday afternoon. Nathaniel Lowe was the only member of the lineup to have multiple hits. Washington only scored four total runs in the final three game of this series in Pittsburgh. (17:30) Trevor Williams' best outing of the season was wasted as he only allowed one run in his five innings of work. The bullpen for only the 3rd time this season was not charged with a run. Lucas Sims had an encouraging appearance as he tossed a scoreless bottom of the 6th. (23:40) The final leg of the road trip moves to Colorado for a three game series. The weather forecast calls for potentially three inches of snow in Denver on Friday, so a doubleheader this weekend is possible. (26:00) Terry Byrom, Voice of the Harrisburg Senators, provides an update on the Nats AA affiliate. Hear the latest on prospects such as Daylen Lile, Yohandy Morales, and Jarlin Susana.

The Pirates handled business in a 6–1 win over the Nationals, powered by a dominant 7-inning outing from Bailey Falter and a game-breaking grand slam from Oneil Cruz. Henry Davis chipped in with his first homer of the year, and the offense finally woke up after a slow start. Things got heated in the 7th when Jorge López was ejected for throwing up and in on Andrew McCutchen — just months after giving up homers to both Cutch and Reynolds. We break down the drama, the dominance, and what it means for the Pirates moving forward..

Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson react to the light scuffle that occurred after a pitch was thrown towards Andrew McCutchen in the Pirates' game yesterday against the Washington Nationals.

In his weekly mailbag podcast, Post-Gazette Pirates insider Noah Hiles answers reader questions. Among them: What's preventing outfielder Oneil Cruz from becoming an elite MLB player? What role do analytics play in manager Derek Shelton's constantly shifting lineups? Which prospects beyond Bubba Chandler are worthy of promotions? Will Chandler bump Carmen Mlodzinski from the lineup whenever he reaches the big leagues? When could a potential change come with Ben Cherington in the GM role? When will we see more of Andrew McCutchen in the lineup? And is Jack Suwinski the new Cole Tucker?

Kris Letang had surgery to repair a hole in his heart and has an expected recovery time of 4-6 weeks. The Pirates have lost four games when starters pitch six or more innings. Jack Suwinski has struggled this season. Andrew McCutchen did not play Tuesday and it seems the Pirates are being cautious with him in the field.

The Pirates offense came alive scoring 10 runs against Washington, but four errors. Colin wouldn't be surprised to see David Bednar back in the majors soon, but wonders if the Pirates don't want to mess with a good thing. Andrew McCutchen has been very good defensively and could see more time there.
