Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show. Matt said things have officially gotten interesting with how the Pirates will handle Konnor Griffin after 2 long home runs today against MLB caliber pitching. Ranger Suarez, one of the best LHP in baseball, allowed the first one, and Matt assured the guys he wasn't just ‘grooving' the pitches in there. How difficult is this situation going to be for the Pirates? Matt has noted before that he's a card collector, so he said he hopes everyone got their Griffin cards already. Could the Pirates have the next Mike Trout on their hands? Matt said he can't argue with the Pirates if they decide to send Griffin down for some final fine tuning before the season.

Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show. Matt reacted to the Marcell Ozuna signing in Pittsburgh. He said this is the exact thing the Pirates were looking for and this could be a pretty good pairing. Matt isn't sure if Ozuna gets back to being a legit MVP candidate, but the change of scenery should help him be better than last season. Matt pointed out that expectations in Pittsburgh are lower than they are in Atlanta. Matt said if things go south, they will easily be able to unload Ozuna around the deadline. Matt would still like to see a starting pitcher added to the rotation even though it appears as if Mitch Keller will be back.
The Pirates have made another move. The news broke this morning that they are singing Marcell Ozuna to a 1-year deal worth $12M. Ozuna will step in and be the team's DH, likely ending the Andrew McCutchen era in Pittsburgh. Do his off-the-field issues scare you at all about this move? What about his injury riddled 2025 campaign? Poni said there is reason to be excited about this – he's a player that can hit a lot of home runs and extend their lineup like we have not seen in a few years (if not more). Chris has his hold ups for both on and off the field reasons. Are fans ready to give the Pirates some flowers for how they handled this offseason? How do fans feel about the Marcell Ozuna signing?

Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show. Matt's take to the Pirates not getting Eugenio Suarez is that the team will be pushed to bring up Konnor Griffin faster. He thinks the familiarity Suarez has in Cincy is likely why he chose them over the Pirates. Matt likes the effort from the Pirates in the offseason, but said they still have to make it more desirable to outside free agents. Matt believes Mitch Keller is definitely off the board right now. Will the Pirates have a backup plan and could that be Marcell Ozuna? The Andrew McCutchen reunion might be over. Does Matt think Limits would hit a major league pitch?
Another Patriot villain was left out of the Hall of Fame – Robert Kraft. He's actually been on the ballot for quite some time. The Steelers just hired a guy with a Patriots cheating connection – Steve Scarnecchia, whose dad was on the Patriots staff through the 2000s. Steve's nickname was ‘spygate.' Steve is being hired as the ‘chief of staff.' Are the Patriots still hated like they were with Tom Brady and Bill Belichick? Chris argued that the Patriots were never really a rival to the Steelers because it was mostly a one-sided affair. Yes, fans still hate the Patriots. Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show.

Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show. Matt, a Butler native, told the guys he remembers some old clippings from the PG way back when he was a high school baseball player and even when he got into the professional level. The guys asked Matt about the Pirates off-season and he gave them a B grade so far, but hopes there is more before we reach the season. Matt suggested a couple trades they could make to fill the 3B void if they can't land a free agent like Eugenio Suarez.
BREAKING: The Post-Gazette announced today that it will cease operations on May 3, 2026. A sad day for many in the local media.

In Matt Pauley's final day in Orlando from the MLB Winter Meetings, he discusses the Cardinals' quiet week amidst many free agent signings, with KMOX Sports Contributor, Bernie Miklasz. Matt then chats with Robert Murray, MLB Insider for FanSided. Hour 1 wraps up with a conversation you don't want to miss with former MLB outfielder Brett Phillips!
Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show. Matt thinks the effort for Kyle Schwarber was ‘legit' on the Pirates' end, but getting him away from a big market like Philadelphia was already an uphill battle. He's not sure what kind of offer would have lured Schwarber away from the Phillies. Did the Pirates have any chance at Pete Alonso and were they even interested? The guys asked Matt about the Scott Boras factor and if he will still push his clients to simply take the most money if that money is coming from the Pirates. Matt reacted to the Gregory Soto signing and thinks it's a ‘great' pickup for the bullpen that needed a left-handed reliever. Matt credited Ben Cherington for putting together a group that has a strong pitching staff, but certainly has holdups on what he has acquired offensively. Matt thinks there needs to be a conglomerate of hitters to turn things around.
The Pirates made a signing last night, but it's not one to get very excited about. Gregory Soto, a 2X All Star lefty reliever, isn't knocking the guys' socks off. Poni, a split-fan between the Pirates and Mets, said Soto was a terrible pitcher in New York. The guys spent time knocking this signing before jumping down the throat of Ben Cherington for another bad off-season move to add to the resume. The big question is – why is a left-handed reliever the first move the Pirates made? Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show.

TK reacted to the Penguins losing a game last night after giving up the tying goal with 0.1 seconds remaining. He said it happened because they never thought it would happen. Tyler feels like the team has lost a little bit of their swagger, specifically when they get into shootout situations, where they continue to lose. He said it takes one win for them in that spot to maybe get things rolling. TK talked about some of the things guys need to learn when approaching a shootout. Tyler deciphered the difference between going down the ice in a shootout versus doing it via a breakaway. TK said it's all about a goalie being about to read the blade and puck placement.

He opens up about his evolving relationship with God, what it means to be planted where you are, and why he believes the process shapes us far more than the outcome.Together we explore the mental side of performance, why questions are essential for growth, and how young athletes can build resilience now, not just when adversity hits.

Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show. The guys asked Matt about any spots on Thanksgiving Eve where the boys used to get after it in Butler. Matt hopes something finally comes to fruition with the Pirates off-season unlike all of the years in the past. Matt thinks this should be the best opportunity for Ben Cherington to get the job done, hopefully. Matt believes there could be a ‘Pirates tax' to attract free agents if they are in a bidding war against big market teams.
BREAKING: Aaron Rodgers did not practice today, which has his status up in the air for Sunday. Poni is going to the Penguins game tonight, but forgot to do an errand his wife asked him to complete. We heard audio from Pirates president Travis Williams getting into the team's off-season plan/moves. Given that Williams is more of the off-the-field guy, how much weight do we let these comments carry? Does Ben Cherington have what he needs to get the job done?

Matt believes there could be a ‘Pirates tax' to attract free agents if they are in a bidding war against big market teams. Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk joined the show. Did Mike have any spots in Wheeling to go out on Thanksgiving Eve back in the day? Mike still doesn't think there is much of a drop-off between Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph, if the Steelers have to sit Rodgers versus Buffalo. The guys are surprised that Rodgers would all of the sudden listen to doctors. Mike said it's not good for anyone involved with the Steelers if they miss the playoffs and it will be even worse for Mike Tomlin if they finish below .500 for the first time in his career. He compared the Steelers to the guy in his late 20's that still shows up to the high school party wearing his letterman jacket. Mike said teams are constantly monitoring Tomlin's situation with the Steelers, but how much longer would teams be lining up for him if he were to become available? Mike agreed with Colin Cowherd that Tomlin would have been fired by certain organizations around the league due to not winning a playoff game in almost 10 years. Mike reiterated his feel about the Steelers pride in having 3 coaches in 50+ years. He believes the Steelers could still net a pretty good return in a trade if they dangled Tomlin out there. Mike was trying to remember what kind of hair he had in high school. Mike goes with the white meat on Thanksgiving and isn't worried about the dryness of his turkey.

Aaron Rodgers talked to the media today and the guys think that is a telltale sign that he will play on Sunday. Usually, a QB won't talk to the reporters if he isn't going to play a few days later. Poni posed the question – is Mason Rudolph the best backup QB in team history? He has more wins than Charlie Batch in backup duty. We looked back at some backup QBs in Steelers lore. Poni thinks Rudolph pulling Mike Tomlin and his team out of the ground in 2023 is something that could win him some tiebreakers. Does Tommy Maddox deserve any consideration? Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show. The guys asked Matt about the Pirates off-season rumors and if the team has any shot to make a mark. Matt went through some names the Pirates should truly pursue. He thinks, even though the staff is already strong, the Pirates should look into pitchers like Ranger Suarez if his market isn't as strong as expected. Matt said the Pirates can't wait too long with Paul Skenes on their roster and they need to show urgency. Is it a good idea for the Pirates to start Konnor Griffin out of the gate in 2026? Matt insisted the Pirates will bolster their starting rotation and could make other splashes, to a smaller degree. Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk joined the show. The guys asked Mike about his card collecting days and he explained why 1976 was a big year. Mike also gave quite an interesting take on an ice cream topping. Once the talk got to football, it turned to Aaron Rodgers and if he would play in Chicago on Sunday. Mike expects Rodgers to play and that he will do everything in his power to play against the Bears one more time. Mike thinks Rodgers is aware that this could be his final season, which could make it more difficult to keep him out of games. The guys asked Mike about the tussle between Ja'Marr Chase and Jalen Ramsey on Sunday, which resulted in Ramsey's ejection and Chase's suspension. How do officials walk the fine line of punches in games?
