Podcast appearances and mentions of Greg Brown

Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. Greg says that he was not shocked by any of the moves the Pirates made at the trade deadline. He also says that “there's something in there” with Jack Suwinski. Greg says that the leadership aspect of players is overrated, and he'd rather get young guys more at-bats. He says that moving Falter allowed for Oviedo to come up. Brown calls the Bednar and Hayes trades “gigantic” moves. He also says that he'd be surprised if Skenes wasn't open to re-signing here. Greg says he 100% still believes that Bob Nutting cares about winning.

Will Howard was presumably injured in practice today. Aaron Rodgers threw a pick that was a perfect pass that hit Connor Heyward in the facemask. Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show.

Who will be their starter for Week 7 against the Steelers? Poni thinks it will be Gabriel, and Mullsy thinks it will be Pickett. Donny thinks it will be Shedeur. Poni says if Pickett starts and beats the Steelers, it will be Mike Tomlin's worst loss ever.

Termarr Johnson isn't hitting well enough in the minors, but is only 21. John Perrotto doesn't think Mitch Keller will be traded. John said there's a 75% chance David Bednar is traded. Bob Nutting has stepped in to prevent a Bednar trade in the past. Greg Brown a month ago thought Ben Cherington would make a big move, but now it's time.

Hour 2 with Joe Starkey: Pirates reporter John Perrotto of Pittsburgh Baseball Now joined the show and said Ke'Bryan Hayes needed a change of scenery. John thinks the Rangers think Bednar could be "the last piece" for them to get into the playoffs. He doesn't think Mitch Keller will be traded before 6pm, but things can change. John said there's a 75% chance David Bednar is traded. Bob Nutting has stepped in to prevent a Bednar trade before. Greg Brown thinks Ben Cherington would make a big move, but now it's time.

Isaiah Likely was carted off the field at practice today, John Harbaugh called it a multi-week injury. Greg Newsome was also carted off the field, and his injury is assumed to be bad. The guys disagree with the Ravens being the Super Bowl favorites, according to Fanduel. They think that the Ravens will run into a wall against Kansas City or Buffalo. Pirates Broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. Greg says that he still thinks that Ben Cherington will make a big trade before the deadline. Brown says it's possible that David Bednar has pitched his last game as a Pirate, but it's also possible that he will remain a Pirate. He also says that Bednar took PNC Park all in after his 100th save. Brownie says that he's confident that Cruz and Skenes will remain Pirates at the deadline. He also says the Pirates should take advantage of desperate teams at the deadline, and that the Pirates need a left fielder.

He also says the Pirates should take advantage of desperate teams at the deadline, and that the Pirates need a left fielder. What's the Pirates best deadline move? Poni and Mullsy name JA Happ, Zane Smith as potential answers. Mullsy says that JA Happ should have pitched the Wild Card game against Jake Arrieta. Tony Watson for Oneil Cruz was a great trade, but not good enough to be the best ever. A commenter says that Austin Hedges for bonus pool money should be in contention. Poni says that the Red Sox do not like Mitch Keller. Donny Football Debrief – Poni skipped a field trip to a Yankees game in Little League, and missed a perfect game. Is Ben Roethlisberger a better quarterback all time than Brett Favre? The guys do not think so. Donny thinks Ben is around 12th best all time, while Favre is around the 8th. Poni mentions that Brees gets dinged for playing in a dome, but Favre doesn't get any credit for playing in bad weather. Mullsy says that Favre's last season was statistically better than any season Ben had. Poni says that he is going to bet on the Hall of Fame Game.

Adam Crowley reacts to Pirates' broadcasters Greg Brown and John Wehner signing during Monday's broadcast of the Pirates' game against the Detroit Tigers.

Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. Greg was very happy for Dan Zangrilli after he called the weekend series against the White Sox, and said that he didn't need any advice. Brown also said that Skenes performance last night looked like the “definition of a stopper”. Greg says that the Pirates aren't going to rebuild, and that they're going to try to win next year. He also says that he doesn't think that Ben Cherington will make moves to try and save his job.

ESPN ranked all 32 NFL rosters, ranking the Steelers at 19. Mullsy doesn't have an issue with this ranking. PFF ranking Myles Garrett as the best player in football was dumb. The AFC is stronger than the NFC, which is another issue for the Steelers. The Steelers have fumbled the quarterback position ever since Ben Roethlisberger retired. Mullsy says that TJ Watt and Cam Heyward should be Hall of Fame locks. This roster would be ranked higher than 19 if QB wasn't weighted so heavily. Mullsy mentions that almost every starting QB in the NFL was a first round pick out of college. Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show.

Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. Rob Manfred says that the Pirates will have a fair chance come February. Brown says that a salary cap will not solve everything. Brown says that Nutting believes that “something has to happen”. The next few months are very important for Reynolds and Cruz. Pirates insider Noah Hiles from the PG joined the show. Noah says that Scott Boras has a ton of power within the MLBPA. Owners are all over the place in a lot of important areas that need settled. Noah says that there is not a lot of interest from Oneil Cruz's camp in terms of staying with the Pirates long term. Donny Football Debrief – Jauan Jennings either wants a new contract or out of San Francisco. Would you make a move for him if you were the GM of the Steelers? Mullsy thinks Terry Mclaurin is a far better receiver than DK Metcalf. Poni doesn't want to give up assets for Mclaurin.

Greg Brown thinks the Pirates are going to make a big trade. What would that mean? It would probably be trading Mitch Keller or a David Bednar trade for a big time bat. Pulse of the People. We want a salary cap and floor but have doubts.

Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. Greg told the doubters of Oneil Cruz in the HR Derby to watch him take BP sometime. Greg said it's good for baseball and the Pirates having a player in the Derby. Greg said he plans on asking Don Kelly about Cruz taking part and if he's worried about him going into a second half slump. Greg talked about a few big prospects that flopped with the Buccos. The guys wanted to get Greg's reaction to the Cruz throw home from Sunday afternoon. Greg reiterated that Ben Cherington will take a pretty big swing at the deadline. Does Greg believe the Pirates are ‘close' to being a playoff team? The guys asked Greg about Paul Skenes getting pulled after 5 innings the other day and if he was on-board with it.

ESPN is continuing to put out potential Paul Skenes trade packages with a few weeks to go before the trade deadline. It feels like they are filled with names that we have, mostly, never heard of. We also looked at the no-trade list for Bryan Reynolds and it's a little confusing. Is he afraid of taxes? Donny Football Debrief – Happy Birthday, Jack Lambert. Is there a more popular Steeler all-time? Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. Greg told the doubters of Oneil Cruz in the HR Derby to watch him take BP sometime.

Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. Greg said Ke'Bryan Hayes was the player he thinks is leading this offensive charge the most, after hitting .300 in June. The Pirates ended the month in a historic way en route to a 4-0 final 4 games. How will things change with this team over the course of the next month with the trade deadline 30 days away? Greg reiterated to the guys that Ben Cherington and a few others in the front office don't believe they are too far away from competing. Greg doesn't think they will move everyone and start from scratch. Greg pondered which guys could be on the move anyway. The guys wanted to spend some time on Dave Parker, including the comments from Nick Gonzales, who suggested the number 39 (the one he wears) to be retired by the team.

Pomp gave the Steelers an A for the offseason. The guys tried to hypothesize how he came to that grade. We pointed out that Pomp pushed hard for the Steelers to bring back Justin Fields, but the grade didn't reflect that. Donny Football Debrief – We have a football game this month. I am ready to give my Super Bowl prediction.

Greg Brown told Mullsy he thinks Ben Cherington is going to make a big move to acquire an impactful bat. The Pirates need a young player who is either proven, or a AAA stud. There needs to be emphasis on bats. Who could the Pirates acquire to change the lineup?

Hour 2 with Joe Starkey: George Pickens will not be attending his youth football camp on June 28th. Pickens is now not going to be a part of it, but tight end Pat Freiermuth has stepped up and will be a guest at the camp. Dionte Johnson said he was "too cold" to go into a game with the Ravens. Greg Brown told Mullsy he thinks Ben Cherington is going to make a big move to acquire an impactful bat.

Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. The guys talked about a Pirates win in Milwaukee, which was helped by a 5-for-5 night from Nick Gonzales. Greg said teams like the Pirates can't afford to lose players like Gonzales because they don't have the luxury some others have. Greg thinks Spencer Horwitz is another guy that ‘can just plain hit' in this lineup. Brownie said Oneil Cruz and Bryan Reynolds are the guys that need to carry this team in home runs. The guys talked about Cruz's outfield work and a few of the mishaps we've seen recently. Cruz has also gone into a terrible slump at the plate – why? Isaac Mattson has become one of the Pirates best stories, showcasing another local product. Greg credited Don Kelly for how some of the players have responded. Greg said it's hard not to root for the players. Greg hinted that Ben Cherington has something brewing about a month out of the trade deadline.

CFA Society Chicago member Dan Grana, CFA speaks with Greg Brown, the Van and Kay Weatherspoon Distinguished Professor of Finance at UNC Kenan-Flagler. They discuss the latest academic research in private asset performance, including results and applicability to practitioners in these asset classes.

Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. Greg thinks Don Kelly is in this for the long-haul and is not the interim manager of the Pirates. We are starting to see Bryan Reynolds heat up a bit, and he's not the only hitter you can say that about. Kelly is actually 15-11 in complete games managed this season, an even better mark than his 15-14 overall record. Can Paul Skenes win the Cy Young with a losing record or are voters still do dead-set on wins and losses? Brownie said Kelly is not afraid as Pirates manager to take chances and risks during games, unlike what we saw from Derek Shelton most of his tenure. Greg was surprised we didn't see Bubba Chandler during this homestand and isn't sure when he arrives. Brownie questioned how good Chandler will be when he's here.

Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. Greg spoke his mind about the bad call in San Diego the other night in the Henry Davis at bat, which was the Pirates last real shot to win the game. Brownie said it's a forgone conclusion that the technology will be changed by Opening Day 2026. Greg talked about the leadership in the clubhouse and why Andrew McCutchen speaking up the other night really meant something. Chris asked Greg about Cutch tying Roberto Clemente for third all-time on the Pirates HR list and what #22 means to the city. Greg thinks McCutchen is Hall of Fame worthy in terms of consideration and says he is continuing to build a strong case. What type of crowd is expected tonight with Paul Skenes on the mound?

"This might as well be Oz,"  I thought, upon clearing the clouds approaching Paducah, Kentucky. I wouldn't have been surprised to experience supersaturated sunshine, and perhaps a golden brick runway. Tales of faraway lands work magic on youthful minds, and although I'd never been here before, the stories of a special person from my youth had cast a spell on this Ohio River town as real as any bright-hued fairy tale.

Ryan doesn't think there is a huge separation between Howard and some of the guys picked early on the second night. Ryan reacted to the slide of Shedeur Sanders, falling all the way down to 144.

Audibles & Analytics podcast host Jon Ledyard joined the show. The guys had a few Shedeur Sanders questions off the bat and if he is as good or as bad as some draft experts see him. Jon said Sanders will only be as good as the structure around him, like a Brock Purdy in San Francisco at his best. Jon doesn't think Sanders has a special arm. Jon would not take a QB in the 1st round of this draft, citing the bad track record of that position in that spot of the draft along with the Steelers recent history there. Jon likes Will Howard in the middle rounds as someone to take a chance on. Jon thinks Jahdae Barron should be on the Steelers radar in the 1st round – a player that provides defensive versatility. Donny Football Debrief – Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders will have their numbers retired at Colorado. Fair or foul?
