Joe said logically the Pirates should sell but our hearts wants them to buy! BUY OR SELL? Joe thinks the biggest story in Pittsburgh sports today is the sudden decline of Paul Skenes. Joe thinks it's best to trade Brandon Lowe and try to trade Mitch Keller. Ben Cherington's job may be on the line. The Pirates have put them in a difficult spot.

MLB analyst Matt Clement joined the show. Matt thinks now it's either buy, or sell Lowe and do nothing. Matt would buy and try to acquire hitting, too. Jo Adell and Taylor Ward make sense to bring in a right-handed bat. Matt thinks Paul Skenes' struggles are very alarming, and the league is somewhat figuring him out. 

Hour 1 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: Joe said logically the Pirates should sell but our hearts wants them to buy! BUY OR SELL? Joe thinks the biggest story in Pittsburgh sports today is the sudden decline of Paul Skenes! The Pirates are 5-10 since the All-Star Game. They are in the range of teams that should sell. This is depressing.

Pirates insider Dan Zangrilli comes on The Fan Hotline to address the underwhelming weekend the team had with Adam Crowley.

The Pirates scored seven runs and still found a way to lose. DiNardo and Jim Rosati break down a pathetic 8-7 loss in Cincinnati after Paul Skenes allowed five runs in four innings, the bullpen blew another late lead and Nick Gonzales made a costly decision at third base during the Reds' eighth-inning rally. They also discuss Ryan O'Hearn's injury, Antwone Kelly's three scoreless innings, strong performances from Jake Mangum and Brandon Lowe and what a four-game losing streak means with the trade deadline approaching.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Friday. Griffin Warner breaks down a packed Friday, July 31 Major League Baseball card on this episode of What I Bet from the Straight Outta Vegas AM podcast network, arriving on a strong run of 6 and 2 in his last 8, 10 and 4 in his last 14, 12 and 5 in his last 17, and 15 and 7 in his last 22. He opens at Wrigley Field, where the Yankees and Will Warren face the Cubs and Shota Imanaga in an early matinee complicated by two exhausted bullpens after both clubs needed extra innings the night before, a combination he says points toward the over on a total of 9. From there he moves to Cincinnati, where Paul Skenes and the Pirates visit Hunter Greene and the Reds at 6:10 eastern, with Greene still finding his form off the injured list and Griffin leaning under on a total near 7 and a half. He covers Toronto's well rested trip to St. Louis, where Dylan Cease, fresh off a complete game shutout at Fenway Park, faces a hot Kyle Leahy and the Cardinals, still catching their breath after outfielder Lars Nootbaar misplayed a fly ball that let Chicago Cubs third baseman Alex Bregman score, with Griffin leaning under again. He works through the Marlins and Mets, where Janson Junk meets an impending trade candidate in Freddy Peralta, the White Sox and Rays, where a hot Erick Fedde draws real skepticism, the Diamondbacks and Guardians, where Griffin likes Cleveland's defense over Arizona's offense, and the Nationals and Braves, where he backs Washington's Foster Griffin as a live underdog despite bullpen concerns. He breaks down Texas and Houston, leaning toward Nathan Eovaldi and the Rangers over Hunter Brown and the Astros, the Royals and Rockies, where Michael Wacha gets strong praise after Kansas City's brutal walk off grand slam loss to Minnesota, the Brewers and Angels, where neither bullpen earns his trust, and a Tigers and Athletics matchup thrown into question after Detroit scratched trade candidate Casey Mize from his start and opted for a bullpen game instead, with ace Tarik Skubal still expected to be dealt before the deadline. He closes the card with Minnesota's Zebby Matthews on the road against Bryce Miller and the Mariners, leaning under on a low scoring night in Seattle. Along the way Griffin shares a Pregame.com promo code, HIT50, good for fifty dollars off his Major League Baseball second half all access package covering every card through the World Series, good through August 10, and notes he is up 23.92 units on the season with a chance to cross 30 units soon. He wraps the episode with his top play of the night, siding with a slight home favorite in the Cleveland Guardians and Tanner Bibee at minus 132, capping off another sharp, detail heavy breakdown of a full slate of games, injury returns, bullpen fatigue, and trade deadline maneuvering across the league heading into the first weekend of August.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Friday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler close out the month of July with a full Cash That Ticket breakdown of Friday's Major League Baseball card, delivered on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed, opening with an honest look at a rough month before diving into a slate loaded with division and wild card stakes. They start with Paul Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates visiting Hunter Greene and the Cincinnati Reds, leaning toward Pittsburgh's deeper bullpen in the first five innings, then turn to Andrew Painter and the Philadelphia Phillies against the Baltimore Orioles, where Painter's rough return from injury has both hosts circling the Orioles team total. Janson Junk and the Miami Marlins head to Citi Field to face a declining Freddy Peralta and the New York Mets, with both hosts leaning Miami in the first five innings as Peralta's trade rumors swirl. Foster Griffin gets the ball for Washington on the road against Bryce Elder and the Atlanta Braves, and the guys like Griffin's strong history against Atlanta even while admitting they do not trust the Nationals bullpen for a full nine. Nathan Eovaldi and the Texas Rangers visit a red hot Hunter Brown and the Houston Astros, a spot where Munaf backs the home favorite while Dave eyes value on the total given Houston's recent form. The night's headline game sends Ranger Suarez and the Boston Red Sox into Dodger Stadium against Eduardo Henrique and the Los Angeles Dodgers, with Shohei Ohtani back in the lineup and both hosts circling the Dodgers team total given the lineup's depth. Dave runs through a string of quicker takes covering the Milwaukee Brewers against the Los Angeles Angels, the Colorado Rockies against the Kansas City Royals, the Cleveland Guardians against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Seattle Mariners against the Minnesota Twins, the Chicago White Sox against the Tampa Bay Rays, and the San Francisco Giants against the San Diego Padres, before the show pivots entirely into football. The back half of the episode breaks down the Denver Broncos' win total heading into a new season under Sean Payton and quarterback Bo Nix, covering a brutal opening schedule, an improved receiving corps after adding Jaylen Waddle alongside Evan Engram, and a defense led by Patrick Surtain that should again rank among the league's best, with both hosts leaning toward the over while flagging real questions about an unproven backfield. They close the football segment with a season long passing yards prop on Bo Nix before locking in their best bets of the show. Along the way Munaf shares a Pregame dot com promo code, RBI50, worth fifty dollars off the Major League Baseball second half all access package, dropping the price from 349 dollars down to 299 dollars and covering every card through the World Series, valid through August 10. Best bets on this episode include a run line play on the Athletics against the Detroit Tigers built around heavy reverse line movement, and a moneyline lean on the Houston Astros over the Rangers, as the guys wrap up July, take stock of a disappointing Tigers season derailed by injuries, and look ahead to a Monday show previewing the Houston Texans win total for the coming NFL season, closing out another detailed, deadline aware breakdown of a full slate of games, injury news, and win total value across baseball and football.

Welcome to Episode 179 of Tablesetters! Today's guest is DiNardo of North Shore Nine, one of the most respected independent voices covering the Pittsburgh Pirates. We first welcomed DiNardo back on Episode 44 in December 2024, and with Pittsburgh sitting right in the middle of the National League Wild Card race as the trade deadline approaches, there was no better time to catch up. For nearly a decade, Anthony has helped grow North Shore Nine from a fan blog into one of the premier destinations for Pirates coverage, featuring podcasts, postgame shows, prospect analysis, videos and in-depth reporting. We begin by looking back on North Shore Nine's recent 10-year anniversary before turning our attention to one of baseball's biggest surprise teams. We discuss how the Pirates have transformed last year's lowest-scoring offense into one of the best in baseball, leading the majors in hits while ranking among the National League leaders in runs scored, RBI, batting average and home runs. We also examine whether seven blown late leads are the only thing standing between Pittsburgh and a playoff spot, or if they expose larger roster issues that still need to be addressed. From there, we dive into the biggest storylines surrounding the club, including Ben Cherington's deadline strategy, reports surrounding payroll, the possibility of listening to offers for Oneil Cruz, and why the bullpen remains the organization's biggest priority as the stretch run begins. Plus: North Shore Nine's 10-year anniversary and how the platform has evolved Esmerlyn Valdez's remarkable breakout and whether he's becoming a long-term cornerstone The impact of Konnor Griffin's injury and why reinforcements could still be on the way Paul Skenes, Braxton Ashcraft, Jared Jones, Bubba Chandler and the outlook for Pittsburgh's rotation Jacob Gonzalez, Spencer Horwitz, Tyler Callihan and the organization's ability to continue developing internal contributors Don Kelly's impact on the clubhouse and why this Pirates team feels different from recent seasons What this season has revealed about the direction of the franchise and whether expectations have permanently changed Before we wrap up, DiNardo reflects on what's next for North Shore Nine, shares his outlook on the trade deadline and gives his prediction for how the Pirates' postseason chase will unfold.

The Pittsburgh Pirates were humiliated 11-0 by the Chicago Cubs in front of their largest crowd of the season. Shota Imanaga shut down the lineup again, while Paul Skenes struck out 11 and generated 22 swings and misses but was still charged with five earned runs. The NS9 Postgame Show breaks down the Pirates' continued problems against left handed pitching, Skenes' misleading final line, the performances from Isaac Mattson and Ron Marinaccio, and why Ben Cherington must add multiple relievers before the trade deadline.

Ken Carman and Anthony Lima breakdown the Guardians' recent "sloppy" play and the future of Gabriel Arias following a mistake-filled game. They also discuss the influx of Pirates fans in Cleveland, the World Cup final drama, and Shedeur Sanders' message to his critics. 02:41 - Vogt Critiques Sloppy Play 06:45 - Pirates Fans Infiltrate Cleveland 11:00 - Paul Skenes' Star Power 19:03 - World Cup Final Reflections 25:30 - Adopting Soccer As Fan 34:18 - Shedeur Sanders' Loyal Message

A sloppy, mistake-filled loss to Pittsburgh—capped by Gabriel Arias getting doubled off second on a bizarre baserunning blunder—has the guys questioning whether Arias has any runway left once Jose Ramirez returns to third base. They contrast his four years of recurring gaffes with rookies like Cooper Ingle and Kahlil Watson, who they say deserve more slack simply because they're new. The conversation spins into frustration over Pittsburgh fans overrunning Progressive Field for the Paul Skenes start, with the crew arguing the Pirates—not the Reds—should be Cleveland's real interleague rival. They close out noting the tight AL Wild Card race, which they say makes a quiet trade deadline more likely than usual.

The fantasy landscape is bracing for impact as dominant MVP frontrunner Aaron Judge remains entirely shut down from physical activity, stalling his recovery timeline indefinitely. Corey Pieper breaks down a high-stakes pitching landscape, devastating long-term prospect injuries, a seismic trade market update, and the latest FanDuel Bet of the Day. Roster managers face massive late-season fallout as Aaron Judge remains unable to resume baseball activities, Christian Walker exits early with acute hip tightness, and dynamic infielder Jeremy Pena suffers yet another frustrating physical setback. The pitching front is equally turbulent as the Chicago Cubs aggressively trade for right-hander Aaron Civale, the high-octane duo of Mick Abel and David Festa are both declared out for the season, Casey Mize exits his latest start early, and JoJo Romero lands on the injured list. Fortunately, reinforcement is on the horizon with Jameson Taillon's return imminent, Ranger Suarez tracking to be activated tomorrow, and Ronel Blanco scheduled to pitch Monday, though managers must monitor Will Smith's recurring neck issues, Samuel Basallo handling right shoulder discomfort, Shohei Ohtani being withheld from the mound, Corbin Carroll's daily status, and Blaze Alexander's long-term absence with a broken hand. An absolutely loaded performance slate features a masterclass on the bump and offensive explosions. Chris Sale fired seven dominant frames of zero-earned, two-hit ball with six strikeouts, Gerrit Cole struck out eight across six high-quality frames, and Jake Bennett, Pete Lambert, Brady Singer, Landen Roupp, Jared Jones, Brandon Pfaadt, Tarik Skubal, JT Ginn, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Paul Skenes, Shota Imanaga, Hunter Greene, and Logan Gilbert all logged stellar outings, while Troy Melton dueled Reid Detmers, Shane Bieber battled Davis Martin, Sean Burke matched up with Trey Yesavage, and Eury Perez went head-to-head with Robert Gasser. At the plate, Trea Turner and Fernando Tatis Jr. both went completely electric by blasting a home run and swiping a bag on Saturday, Jose Trevino launched two home runs, and huge performances rolled in from Junior Caminero, Sam Antonacci, Drake Baldwin, Ryan Jeffers, Elly De La Cruz, Spencer Steer, Andres Chaparro, Curtis Mead, Kody Clemens, Wilyer Abreu, Shane Drohan, Spencer Torkelson, Hunter Goodman, Jackson Merrill, Nolan McLean, Austin Riley, Francisco Lindor, Esmerlyn Valdez, Ty France, and Tyler Stephenson. Conversely, Christian Walker's night was cut short, Jonathan Aranda bottomed out with an 0-for-7 doubleheader collar, and Griffin Jax, Gage Jump, Rhett Lowder, Ian Seymour, Jake Bauers, Eduardo Rodriguez, Cam Schlittler, Noah Cameron, Zebby Matthews, and Munetaka Murakami all landed in the duds column.

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.

The Approach Angle Nate Schwartz (@_nateschwartz) and Kyle Bland (@blandalytics) discuss pitch tunnels and their impact on arsenal construction. The podcast starts by talking about what a pitch tunnel is and why it can be effective against all types of hitters (including Jordan Walker, who Nate has to give a mention to after the Home Run Derby win). They talk about how release points and movement can confuse a hitter in terms of pitch recognition and affect their decision window when it comes to making a swing. Then, they talk about all of the different ways that the public has attempted to quantify tunneling. The next segment discusses arsenal construction -- like what makes pitches good tunnel partners and how bridge pitches can be effective. Additionally, they talk about why it can be useful to have pitches that don't tunnel with one another. Finally, they close with players that have interesting tunnels & mixes: Davis Martin, Bryan Woo, Nolan McLean, and Paul Skenes.
