This week's Sicko Soundoff brought heated debates and bold takes as fans tackled the Pirates' biggest questions. The highlight? A deep dive into a potential Paul Skenes extension. With pre-arbitration leverage, one caller suggested a 7-year, $140M deal—locking up the ace while keeping future flexibility. But would Skenes even consider it? The bullpen also took center stage, with Kyle Finnegan and Craig Kimbrel emerging as intriguing options to bolster late-game security behind David Bednar. Meanwhile, Nick York's potential remains underrated, and concerns over Mitch Keller's future sparked discussion. Should the Pirates trade him before his value dips? With pitchers and catchers reporting soon, optimism (and skepticism) is running high. Want to join the madness? Hop into the NS9 Discord and be part of the next Sicko Soundoff!
