Josh Yohe tweeted and said that the Pirates are too flawed to trade prospects for help at the deadline. Poni disagrees with this, saying that he would trade either one of Edward Florentino or Murf Gray if it meant getting significant help in return. More callers weigh in on this topic as well. The Pirates had the second highest get-in price of any team in all of baseball yesterday, behind only the Dodgers, who play in Los Angeles. This is most likely why nobody is there on a Tuesday night for a huge game. Oneil Cruz has been cleared for all baseball activity, even though he cannot come off of the IL until August 8th. More callers chime in on the Pirates. BREAKING: Yohan Ramirez will start for the Pirates tomorrow, or at least open for the Pirates tomorrow. Poni thinks that the Pirates can only pitch Carmen Mlodzinski when he feels like pitching, and mentions that it would make sense for Mlodzinski to start tomorrow.

Bucco Auction House – Bids on Braxton Ashcraft, Mason Montgomery, and Ryan O'Hearn ensue.
Ben Cherington said yesterday that the Pirates have the resources to be playing games in October this year. He also said that it is clear what they want to do at the deadline. Both of these things would certainly make somebody think that the Pirates are going to be buyers at the trade deadline. Mullsy thinks that Mason Montgomery is the Pirates closer at this point, but they need to surround him with other bullpen arms if they want to compete. Mullsy thinks that the Pirates should really only think about trying to win games this year, as there might not even be a season next year. Callers chime in on the Pirates deadline plans. Bucco Auction House – Bids on Braxton Ashcraft, Mason Montgomery, and Ryan O'Hearn ensue.

Bucco Auction House – Bids on Billy Cook, Paul Skenes, and Esmerlyn Valdez ensue.
Ben Cherington defended the lack of bullpen help for the Pirates yesterday, after Dennis Santana gave up a walkoff homer to Travis Bazzana. Cherington said that some of the bullpen help will come internally, and that they still have faith in a lot of the guys in the bullpen. Poni mentions that the Pirates are going to have to give up assets to get assets, and that Cherington can't be afraid to do this if he doesn't want to end up with nothing. Poni also thinks that Cherington is operating as if his job is secure. Poni was scared and thought that he got the new virus that is going around. Callers chime in on the Pirates' big series win.

Jeff lists multiple Pirates who have played in the Futures Game that didn't go on to have an MLB career or a very notable career. Should the Pirates consider trading Edward Florentino? We think he should be the headliner of a big deal but Seth Hernandez is off the table. The Pirates need to trade prospects. We hear from Bucco fans.

Cam Heyward was not ranked as a top 10 defensive tackle by NFL.com. Poni thinks that this is ridiculous, and Cam should feel very disrespected. Cam was a second team all-pro last year, meaning the voters only viewed two or three defensive tackles as better than Cam. Poni and Mueller both think that Cam is one of the most underrated Steelers of all time, just because he never ended up winning anything with the team. Dennis Santana just gave up a grand slam in the 9th inning to make it 10-5 Braves. Dennis Santana, who has an ERA around 6.00, is for some reason still getting opportunities to pitch in high leverage. Angry callers share their thoughts on today's game. Another wave of angry callers chimed in on today's brutal loss.

A historic night at PNC Park and for Ryan O'Hearn as the Bucco joined the rare 10 RBI Club in the 12-4 win over the Braves. O'Hearn started his night with a Grand Slam followed by a pair of 3-run home runs. It is, at worst, on the medal stand of single-game performances in Pirates history. Where does it rank? We heard from Ryan O'Hearn after last night's game that is among the greatest single-game performances in team history. He said his helmet will be going to Cooperstown. Is the ‘Green Weenie' going to make a comeback? Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show. Jason Robertson reportedly wants to play with his brother, who the Penguins traded for and signed last week. But just because the Penguins have Nicholas Robertson that doesn't guarantee them to get Jason. At this stage, it will require a trade and the Stars could be looking for a massive haul. If the move requires Ben Kindel going back, should that be a hold up? The Pens have been linked to Elias Pettersson, who has a few 30-goal seasons under his belt. Is Pittsburgh still an attractive place to play thanks to Sidney Crosby?

Bucco Auction House – Bids on Konnor Griffin, Brandon Lowe, and Pirates' wins ensue.
Joe Block was very excited after Brandon Lowe's homer to make it 9-4 Pirates yesterday. Poni is very fired up about Lowe getting snubbed from the All-Star game, and admits that he is not sure why that is. Poni also mentions that none of the 4 guys on the show today actually placed an all-star vote for Lowe, so we can't really complain. PG columnist Noah Hiles joined the show. Jim Bowden wrote that the Pirates are a great fit for Mets setup man Luke Weaver, who is having an outstanding year. Noah says that this is something that he could see happening, but doesn't know if going all-in on one reliever is a good idea. He thinks that the Pirates are better suited for two above-average arms. Noah thinks that barring a complete collapse, Brandon Lowe will be here for the remainder of the season. He doesn't think that Lowe will get retained after this season, however. Bucco Auction House – Bids on Konnor Griffin, Brandon Lowe, and Pirates' wins ensue.
The Pirates got their doors blown off by Cristopher Sanchez and the Phillies last night, 8-0. Donny questions whether or not the Pirates were even trying to win the game last night based on the lineup they rolled out. Billy Cook and Endy Rodriguez were in center field and at first base over Jake Mangum and Ryan O'Hearn. Donny thinks that the Pirates' lineup yesterday was similar to those of the really bad Bucco teams. Callers chime in on the Pirates' ugly loss last night. Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk joins the show. Mike says that people knew about Chris Johnson's ALS diagnosis for a little while, but everybody was discreet out of respect for him. Mike says that he is and isn't surprised that there wasn't more outcry that football caused Johnson's diagnosis. Mike doesn't think that anybody will touch Terrion Arnold until his legal situation is settled. Mike thinks that Dianna Russini will never be able to escape the affair with Mike Vrabel.
