On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey reacts to the Pirates' decision to designate first baseman Rowdy Tellez for assignment four plate appearances short of a $200,000 bonus in his contract. Was this a cheap move by manager Derek Shelton and GM Ben Cherington. Will it hurt perception of the club among MLB free agents this winter? And will the club really learn enough about Liover Peguero and Joshua Palacios -- the minors leaguers replacing Tellez and Michael A. Taylor on the roster -- to justify the move? Later, Jason gives his thoughts on coach Mike Tomlin noncommittal stance about Justin Fields as the Steelers' starting quarterback over Russell Wilson. And reacts to the Penguins' NHL preseason home opener Tuesday night at PPG Paints Arena, a 3-2 loss to the Buffalo Sabres.

Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. Greg was surprised to find out the Pirates were DFA-ing Rowdy Tellez and Michael A. Taylor with just six games to go. Greg didn't think Tellez was overly fond of Pittsburgh in general. Does Greg think this will impact the Pirates in free agency? Is this the final week of games for Derek Shelton?

On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey reacts to the Pirates' moves at the MLB trade deadline Tuesday. Specifically, he gives his thoughts on headline acquisitions Bryan De La Cruz, formerly of the Miami Marlins, and Isiah Kiner-Falefa, former of the Toronto Blue Jays. Where do they fit in the Pirates' lineup and defensive alignment? How much can they help the club's frustrating offense? How much credit does GM Ben Cherington deserve for adding them in the final hour before the deadline without giving up any top prospects? And what should we make of more minor deals involving Martin Perez, Jalen Beeks, Josh Walker and more? Jason tackles those questions, analyzes the center field situation with Michael A. Taylor getting hot at the plate and gives quick thoughts on a busy first day in pads at Steelers training camp, where Russell Wilson and George Pickens provided offensive highlights.

Hour three with Joe Starkey and Paul Zeise. Nick Yorke is the most impactful prospect the Pirates acquired. Bubba Chandler has a chance to be a frontline type starter and will be a solid pitcher. Jonathan doesn't think it's that big of a deal that Charles McAdoo was traded and profiles as a No. 4 outfielder. It looked like a match was lit for Michael A. Taylor and Jared Triolo. Dan is ok with the moves the Pirates made and the quality of play improving made them believe they should give it a shot.

Hour two with Joe Starkey and Paul Zeise. The Pirates made two moves to impact their offense and are a better team, on paper, down the stretch. Are you jumping on the Michael A. Taylor train? What is our ideal Pirates batting order?

On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey reacts to the Pirates comeback victory against the Houston Astros on Tuesday night, in which Michael A. Taylor's late homer ensured another strong start by Paul Skenes did not go to waste. He also talks GM Ben Cherington's remaining options before the MLB trade deadline. Will he make a move for remaining potential targets like the Tampa Bay Rays' Yandy Diaz, the Miami Marlins' Bryan De La Cruz or the Los Angeles Angels' Taylor Ward or will he stand pat? Then later, Jason analyzes Monday's trades: Pitcher Quinn Priester to the Boston Red Sox for minor league infielder Nick Yorke. And minor league pitcher Luis Peralta to the Colorado Rockies for reliever Jalen Beeks.

Michael doesn't think Josh Bell fits in a return as either a first baseman or DH. The Pirates are prioritizing defense over offense. He thinks Michael A. Taylor might have figured some things out.

Hour four with Joe Starkey and Paul Zeise. Michael doesn't think Josh Bell fits in a return as either a first baseman or DH. The Pirates are prioritizing defense over offense. He thinks Michael A. Taylor might have figured some things out. The Pirates are reportedly interested in Marlins outfielder Bryan De La Cruz.

On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey reacts the Pirates' victory against the Reds on Tuesday in Cincinnati. Can they use it as a springboard to a winning streak that would help them greatly in their MLB playoff race for an NL wild card spot? Or will the inconsistency of players like Yasmani Grandal and Michael A. Taylor prevent that? Did Mitch Keller prove that he's just fine after some slips from his dominant May? And can Henry Davis finally prove he belongs at the MLB level as he starts a minor league rehab assignment with the Altoona Curve? Jason tackles those questions, offers his thoughts on an ESPN article that ranks the Steelers' starters 18th in the NFL and reacts to the announcement of the next Hockey Hall of Fame class.

The Nats lost 8-3 to the Pirates in their sold out home opener to begin the season 1-3 for the sixth consecutive year. Mark & Al recap a second straight day filled with bullpen struggles as the game was tied at 4 entering the top of the 8th. Matt Barnes and Tanner Rainey shared responsibility for the four late Pirates runs and overall the quartet of Nats relievers gave up ten hits in the afternoon. (12:00) MacKenzie Gore threw a so-so start as he gave up a trio of runs in 5.1 IP on 101 pitches. His pitch count was immediately high as it took over 40 pitches to get through the first two innings. Thus far this season, it seems like the Nationals starters are having sluggish beginnings to their outings. (17:20) The offense overcame a slow start and their performance was highlighted by Riley Adams' longest HR of his career. Adams got the start behind the plate as Keibert Ruiz served as the DH. (21:40) Victor Robles drew a pair of walks and also stole two bases on Monday. It is the first time that Robles has walked more than once in a game since April 26th last season. The hosts then explain where Robles is fitting into the organization's long term plans. (26:00) It was Michael A. Taylor's first game at Nationals Park since the World Series believe or not. He played well for Pittsburgh in their win and received a strong ovation from the crowd during introductions and before his initial at bat.
