The Pirates rallied late in Boston to beat the Red Sox 4–2, spoiling rookie Payton Tolle's debut. Neil and DiNardo break down the marquee matchup of Paul Skenes vs. Tolle: Skenes didn't have his very best but stayed icy—6 IP, 7 H, 1 ER, 6 K on 95 pitches—working through some shaky defense (rough night for IKF, and a drop in CF) and a Roman Anthony homer. Andrew McCutchen carried the offense (3-for-3, BB, two doubles) with the go-ahead two-run double, while Nick Gonzales chipped in two hits. They also dive into Henry Davis' night (tough at-bats but stellar behind the plate, nabbed a runner), and a lights-out bullpen trio: Dauri Moreta's nine-pitch seventh, Isaac Mattson continuing his breakout (now down to a 1.95 ERA), and Dennis “Mr. Efficient” Santana striking out two to close (ERA down around 2.33). Plus: quick talk on waiver buzz (IKF, Tommy Pham). Like, comment, and subscribe for more Pirates postgames. Powered by Primanti Bros—let's go Bucs!

The biggest story today is Bubba Chandler. The No. 1 prospect in baseball dominated the Cardinals and made their hitters look very bad. Joe doesn't know how people can watch Paul Skenes and Bubba Chandler and not be optimistic. This is why Joe is saying they're not that far away.
What is the point of peppercorns in our food? Joe had it in his food and doesn't understand the point of them. One caller mentions trading Paul Skenes now that Bubba Chandler is here.
Pirates General Manager Ben Cherington joins Darragh McDonald to discuss how he's diving deeper into player development in Pittsburgh, why the team has had more success developing pitchers than hitters, how the Pirates considered drafting a position player instead of Paul Skenes, why the they haven't signed a player to a multi-year deal during his tenure, and the necessity of small-market teams to acquire players via trades.Then Anthony Franco joins the pod to discuss the Orioles locking up their young catcher Samuel Basallo with an 8-year extension, if Adley Rutschman could get moved, Felix Bautista being out for a full year after undergoing shoulder surgery, Zack Wheeler's diagnosis of thoracic outlet syndrome and the timeline for his return, and whether the Rangers will decide they are out of the playoff race and place players on waivers to dump salary in order to get under the luxury tax threshold.

The 2024 season saw the New York Yankees go to the World Series and the Boston Red Sox fail to make the playoffs. One year later, the Red Sox have beaten the Yankees in eight of their ten matchups and lead the AL Wild Card race by a half game over the Yankees. Three of the Boston wins came this weekend as Boston took three of four from the Yankees in New York. The Yankees continue to have issues figuring out their lineup with an injured, but playing, Aaron Judge. Anthony Volpe also continues to struggle massively. Will the Yankees be able to survive this for a deep postseason run? How is the rest of the season going to shake out for the Red Sox? Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss both teams' seasons thus far and how they see them playing out the rest of the way.At the same time that all of this was happening, the Padres were hosting the Dodgers for another huge NL West series. Unlike their previous matchup, the Padres came out on the winning end and are now tied for the lead in the NL West. Los Angeles has the tiebreaker for the division, but with 31 games remaining, and the easiest schedule in baseball, the Padres have a real shot at the NL West crown. Jake and Jordan discuss what they saw out of each team and what they think the postseason may end up looking like. Those two series may have stolen the headlines, but there were also three sweeps this weekend as the Cubs, Rangers and Pirates all brought out their brooms. For the Pirates, that also included another impressive display from Paul Skenes as he threw seven scoreless innings and officially eliminated the Rockies from playoff contention. Through his first 50 starts, he now has an astonishing 2.02 career ERA. The guys marvel over Skenes and look at each of these sweeps.Plus, they go through every other series from the weekend and talk about what stood out to them. That includes Cal Raleigh reaching 49 home runs and setting an MLB record for home runs by a catcher. Might he break Judge's AL home run record? That feat may be in reach for the Mariners catcher. Jake and Jordan discuss this and everything else you may have missed from every series over the weekend. Start off your week with us here at Baseball Bar-B-Cast.

Kevin Gorman calls in to recap Paul Skenes' dominant outing yesterday and Bubba Chandler's debut on Saturday.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Hour 4 with Joe Starkey: Bubba Chandler debuted with a bang and four shutout innings to earn the save against the Rockies. If your staff begins with Paul Skenes and Bubba Chandler, it's a very good start. Joe thinks the Pirates pitching puts them close to competing for a wild card if they add hitters and a new general manager.
Bubba Chandler debuted with a bang and four shutout innings to earn the save against the Rockies. If your staff begins with Paul Skenes and Bubba Chandler, it's a very good start. The Pirates lead MLB in shutouts (16).
Pirates pre/post game host Dan Zangrilli joined the show. The Pirates swept the Rockies over the weekend. Bubba Chandler earned a 4-inning save in his debut Friday night. Paul Skenes shut out Colorado over 7 innings yesterday. The guys shared a staggering stat about the 2025 Pirates and their home/road splits. Dan shared his reaction of Bubba's debut, but mentioned how he didn't think his call-up was deserved at the time. Dan said there is a lot to be excited about when it comes to Pirates pitching in 2026. Will we see Chandler in the bulk relief role for the remainder of the season? Dan thinks Konnor Griffin has an outside chance to break spring training with the club going into 2026, the way Jared Jones did last year. Griffin has good early returns in Altoona and Dan wants to see the bump up to AAA before the season is over.
A classic QB debate to start the show. Should the Steelers use a short-term IR spot on Will Howard? Poni thinks the team may really have something on the rookie QB, despite him not playing a down of preseason football. Chris wanted Poni to temper down the hype, but he wasn't having it. What should the expectations be for Howard? Are people already turning on Will Howard? A quick Pitt-Penn State discussion. Pirates pre/post game host Dan Zangrilli joined the show.

Andrew McCutchen isn't holding back. In his recent sit-down at Wrigley with Jose Negron of DKPS, Cutch admitted he doesn't want to “waste a roster spot” and made it clear that the Pirates have to pay to win if they want to take advantage of their pitching window. We dive into what that means for his future in Pittsburgh, how his Milwaukee stint shaped his outlook, and whether 2026 will be his 18th big-league season. Then we shift to Tommy Pham's comments from last night, where he stressed the need for a team-wide offensive philosophy and even pointed to Jared Triolo as someone starting to buy in. Is this really an organizational approach, or just veteran leadership trying to push change from inside the clubhouse? Finally, we zoom out: Are the Pirates actually “close,” like Pham believes, or does Cutch have it right that ownership must finally spend to avoid wasting an elite pitching staff led by Paul Skenes and Mitch Keller? ⚾️ Subscribe for more Pirates talk and North Shore Nine content!

Adam Crowley joined the show from the Pitt kickoff event. Crowley doesn't mind Bubba Chandler coming up in pitching in the bullpen. His results haven't been good the last two to three months. Chandler, Paul Skenes, Jared Jones, Kyle Ashcraft, and Kyle Nicolas are all good friends and Chandler was mad he wasn't here.

Pirates legend Al Oliver joins the show! He is being inducted into the Pirates Hall of Fame. What does the honor mean to him? He says it means a lot to him. He says he wasn't shocked and people were wondering what took so long. He is very happy to be back in Pittsburgh and celebrate the occasion. He says his family doesn't talk about the Hall of Fame because they have no control over it. He did love to see Dave Parker go in. He would approach Paul Skenes the same way as he approached Hall of Famers.

Post-Gazette Pirates insider Noah Hiles reacts to news that top pitching prospect Bubba Chandler is set to be promoted to the MLB club this weekend for a series against the Colorado Rockies. Why was now the right time for Chandler in the eyes of GM Ben Cherington and manager Don Kelly? Are they making the right move in using him out of the bullpen to start? Or should he be in the rotation alongside names like Paul Skenes, Mitch Keller and Braxton Ashcraft? And what doe this promotion mean for 2026 rotation spot, with competition including Mike Burrows, Johan Oviedo and others? Noah tackles those questions and more.

RUNDOWN Mitch and Hotshot recap the Mariners' Ichiro celebration weekend, praising the team's tribute while questioning the odd inclusion of Tom Brady in the video montage—especially after deliberately omitting Alex Rodriguez to avoid boos. Episode 346's “area code spotlight” on Houston's, highlights a long list of famous residents and musical talent from ZZ Top and Kenny Rogers to Beyoncé and Travis Scott. Mitch and Hotshot marvel at the Mariners' blistering run—seven straight wins, 13 games over .500, and now just a game behind the Astros with 43 to play. With stars like Gino Suarez yet to heat up and pitching still not at peak form, the duo wonders just how high this team's ceiling might be. In this Mariners No-Table, Mitch, Joe Doyle, and Brady Farkas break down Seattle's 9–1 homestand, surging offense, and remarkable lineup depth even with Gino Suarez and Cal Raleigh struggling. They debate bullpen concerns—especially Andres Muñoz's command—plus looming roster decisions with Luke Raley and Victor Robles returning. Jacson Bevens joins Mitch for some key takeaways from Seattle's preseason opener, spotlighting rookie WR Tory Horton's strong debut, dynamic fullback usage, and a cleverly schemed interception that showcased Mike Macdonald's defense. They discuss the ceiling and depth of the defense, the roles of Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet, and the need for top performances from CBs Riq Woolen and Devon Witherspoon. In this re-aired classic, John Tesh tells Mitch the now-famous story of how “Roundball Rock” was born, from humming the tune into his answering machine in Europe to bringing it to life in the studio. He shares behind-the-scenes details about working with NBC, the song's enduring legacy, and his surprise at how deeply it has embedded itself in basketball culture.
