The quarterbacks in the AFC North are Aaron Rodgers, Dillon Gabriel, Jack Browning, and Cooper Rush. Joe Burrow has been sacked 201 times in 71 games. 100% Chris would feel confident picking the Steelers to win the AFC North. The Steelers are still having too many defensive communication issues.

The MLB playoffs are underway. Mason Miller threw a 104 mph pitch against Chicago. Ken in Beaver gives Cam Heyward props for helping to force turnovers with passes defended. Roman Wilson has barely gotten on the field with the tight ends seeing increased snaps.

Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson wonder what Pirates' GM Ben Cherington has done to warrant his return for the 2026 season.

93.7 The Fan's Jeff Hathhorn comes on The Fan Hotline to address the latest developments involving the Steelers and the Pirates.

-Donny brings up a Steelers trade rumor. For Jaguars WR Tim Patrick. Most everyone has no idea who that is. Which you would think would make the guys think it would be a big waste of time. However Mullsy LIKES Patrick. Because he put up WR2 stats in Denver. The two agree having this discussion is really just a bad sign for Roman Wilson. -Ray Fittipaldo joins the show. The Steelers insider explains why Roman Wilson cant get out of the doghouse. And gets into why Pat Friermuth is having such a bad season. -TRT: Total Request Thursday. The listeners wanted the guys to talk about the ex-Pirates having success in the playoffs.

-Poni is producing the show for the 1st time and doing a masterful job. He's making it look quite easy as a matter of fact. Donny is hosting and starts the show by talking about the #1 issue facing the Pirates this offseason: their need for hitting help. And why Mitch Keller is the player that needs traded to get hitting help. Mullsy pontificates about Keller going to a new team and becoming a star. "I need someone here who can hit." Mullsy he used the word "WAR" more than time in his life. -Calls are supposed to be on the Pirates but the show has already gone off the rails. -Jason Mackey, PG Pirates writer joined the show. He thinks the Pirates payroll will be around $90 million. He was surprised that Ben Cherington was retained. The Pirates want to get rid of Mitch Keller because he's not good enough to justify his salary. Jason reports Oscar Marin was fired because of what Pirates pitchers said about him in player exit interviews. Mackey believes Andrew McCutchen has played his last game with the Pirates.

PM Team FULL SHOW 10-2-2025 with Poni and Donny switching roles for the day!

-Donny and Mullsy keep the baseball talk going with the Tigers-Guardians game getting underway. The two talk about Cleveland being consistently good. And Pittsburgh being consistently bad. It's been that way for a long time. It's pretty depressing. -Bob Pompeani jumped on the show. He detailed his time in Ireland. And gave his thoughts on the state of the Steelers at 3-1. -PM Team Power Rankings. Top 5 scary movies with it being spooky season.

Marty speaks with Theresa Kailsmith (City Council) about a meeting focused on Pittsburgh Pirates. Jeff McCausland (Retired Colonel) joined the show to comment of Secretary of War Pete Hegseths' position on fitness and the military.

George Edward "Rube" Waddell (October 13, 1876 – April 1, 1914) was an American pitcher in Major League Baseball (MLB). A left-hander, he played for 13 years, with the Louisville Colonels, Pittsburgh Pirates, and Chicago Orphans in the National League, as well as the Philadelphia Athletics and St. Louis Browns in the American League. Born in Bradford, Pennsylvania, and raised in Prospect, Pennsylvania, Waddell was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1946. Waddell is best remembered for his highly eccentric behavior, and for being a remarkably dominant strikeout pitcher in an era when batters were expert at making contact. He had an excellent fastball, a sharp-breaking curveball, a screwball, and superb control; his strikeout-to-walk ratio was almost 3-to-1, and he led the major leagues in strikeouts for six consecutive years.

Pirates fans are irritated that the Pirates are keeping members of the front office that have put this 71-win team together.

Dan was somewhat surprised the Pirates moved on from Oscar Marin. It's hard to justify why Ben Cherington is back. Dan thinks there will be more money flowing throughout the sport for other franchises with a cap and floor. He doesn't believe the Pirates have the revenue for a $120 million payroll.

The Pirates are keeping Ben Cherington and Don Kelly. Bob wanted the Pirates to move on from Cherington and was surprised that he stayed. Bob wants to see the Pirates sign Pete Alonso. The Pirates are moving on from Oscar Marin, Brent Strom, and Mike Rabello. Why are the Pirates moving on from their pitching coach??

Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson criticize the Steelers for a special teams decision that was made during Sunday's win over the Minnesota Vikings.

In the wake of pitching coach Oscar Marin not being retained by the Pirates, Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson look at the team's offensive numbers in 2025 to compare how many runs they were scoring to how many they were giving up.

Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson wonder if the Pirates let go of pitching coach Oscar Marin because they don't believe the staff was the best it could have been this season.

Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show. Matt reacted to the end of the Pirates season and some of the changes they have made. Matt gave his thoughts on the return of Ben Cherington for 2026. He thinks it is ‘inevitable' that the team trades Mitch Keller to get some offense on this roster. Chris had Matt react to some of the comments from Travis Williams with the media. Matt posed a good question back to Chris about big market versus small market in Major League Baseball.

The Pirates parted ways with a few coaches yesterday, including Oscar Marin, who was the leader of one of the best pitching staffs in baseball. Should Matt Hague be safe as the hitting coach after a historically bad offensive year? The guys wondered if there was something behind the scenes with Marin and if he didn't get the support of Paul Skenes or other guys on the staff.

The Pirates are bringing back manager Don Kelly and general manager Ben Cherington. Cherington is 365-505 as Pirates GM. Cherington finished in last place in Boston every season except the season they won the World Series. The Pirates were worse this year than the last two seasons. They haven't shown enough to give fans hope.

Pirates fans sound off with us on their Bucs frustrations. Do the Pirates have proven hitters? MLB teams rely on revenue sharing and TV contracts.

Bob Nutting called this full season unacceptable, but is bringing back Travis Williams and Ben Cherington. Noah doesn't understand how Cherington and Williams are back. Multiple players were outspoken about the team and players went out of their way to let him know how bad things went. Noah thinks the Pirates will trade Mitch Keller and likely be an underwhelming return.

Pirates President Travis Wiliams said the Pirates are dedicated to make the playoffs, "Period. Full stop." He said they have the best young pitching staff in baseball.  The Pirates offense needs significant additions to be close to winning. Williams said the historically bad offensive season can be taken care of.

Recapping our Pirates record predictions. Austin picks the Mariners to win the World Series and Cal Raleigh to hit eight home runs! Donny picks the Phillies and really enjoys watching Kyle Schwarber!

Noah Hiles from The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette comes on The Fan Hotline to react to the latest developments with the Pirates, including the extension of manager Don Kelly, with Dorin Dickerson and Nicholas "Harry" Callas.

Dorin Dickerson and Nicholas "Harry" Callas react to Pirates' president Travis Williams addressing the extension of manager Don Kelly and what the Pirates intensions are for next season.

93.7 The Fan's Jeff Hathhorn comes on The Fan Hotline to talk about the latest developments with the Pirates and to react to the Steelers' win on Sunday.

Pirates' broadcaster Neil Walker comes on The Fan Hotline to react to the news that the team has extended Don Kelly to be the permanent manager.

Pirates pre-post game host Dan Zangrilli joined the show. Dan said the benefit of the doubt has not been earned by the Pirates. Dan senses that the lockout in 2027 is a real thing that could bring big change to baseball. Dan defended the Pirates keeping the front office together because it could be tough to put someone in a one-year window with a lockout looming. Dan thinks 2026 is ‘it' for the entire front office, outside of the owner. Dan expects the Pirates to be more aggressive and spend more money. Do the Pirates have a ‘young core' of hitters? Dan believes we will see some coaching staff changes in the coming days/weeks.

Ben Cherington will be back in 2026. Why? He tried explaining to the media what his plan is for his 7th year as the team's GM. They are telling us they have the resources to win, but why would we believe them?

Tonight TD is replaced with TD Jr and will join The Grand Schwalbini and Hockey Jesus to discuss the Pittsburgh Steelers 3-1 win in Ireland over the Minnesota Vikings, and the end of the Pittsburgh Pirates 2025 Season. As always, we finish with 3 reviews you'll sure want to hear about. C'mon and join us on the porch!

Today, Don Kelly and the Pittsburgh Pirates agreed to an extension bringing him back as the skipper of the 2026 Pirates. It was also announced immediately after his press conference that General Manager Ben Cherington has been reassured that he will return for the 2026 season. Seems like not much change is happening among the front office immediately after the Pirates finished with 91 losses. Thoughts?

BREAKING - The Pirates have extended manager Don Kelly. Kelly went 59-65 with the Pirates as manager. Marc-Andre Fleury played his final game in Pittsburgh on Saturday and made eight save, not allowing a goal. This is Evgeni Malkin's last year in Pittsburgh, more than likely. This will be a farewell tour as the Fleury game on Saturday started it off.

Don Kelly AND Ben Cherington will speak to the media at 3:30 p.m. This makes us believe Cherington will be here next year. Bob Nutting said this season was "unacceptable." Will Ben Cherington still be here?? Noah Hiles had a great story in the Post-Gazette today where an anonymous Pirates player called out the Pirates for not spending and saying that you get what you pay for.

The Pirates extended Don Kelly and will bring back Ben Cherington. Poni disagrees with the idea that Cherington should still be in Pittsburgh. The Pirates have by far the worst record in the NL Central since Cherington took over as GM. Cherington is under contract until 2027.

fWotD Episode 3069: Casey Stengel Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Monday, 29 September 2025, is Casey Stengel.Charles Dillon "Casey" Stengel (; July 30, 1890 – September 29, 1975) was an American Major League Baseball (MLB) right fielder and manager, best known as the manager of the championship New York Yankees of the 1950s and later, the expansion New York Mets. Nicknamed "the Ol' Perfessor", he was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1966.Stengel was born in Kansas City, Missouri, in 1890. In 1910, he began a professional baseball career that would span over half a century. After almost three seasons in the minor leagues, Stengel reached the major leagues late in 1912, as an outfielder, for the Brooklyn Dodgers. His six seasons there saw some success, among them playing for Brooklyn's 1916 National League championship team, but he also developed a reputation as a clown. After repeated clashes over pay with the Dodgers owner, Charlie Ebbets, Stengel was traded to the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1918; however, he enlisted in the Navy that summer, for the remainder of World War I. After returning to baseball, he continued his pay disputes, resulting in trades to the Philadelphia Phillies (in 1919) and to the New York Giants (in 1921). There, he learned much about baseball from the manager, John McGraw, and had a number of highlights in his career, including hitting an inside-the-park home run in Game 1 of the 1923 World Series to defeat the Yankees. His major league playing career ended with the Boston Braves in 1925, but he then began a career as a manager.The first twenty years of Stengel's second career brought mostly poor finishes, especially during his MLB managerial stints with the Dodgers (1934–1936) and Braves (1938–1943). He thereafter enjoyed some success on the minor league level, and Yankee general manager George Weiss hired him as manager in October 1948. Stengel's Yankees won the World Series five consecutive times (1949–1953), the only time that has been achieved. Although the team won ten pennants in his twelve seasons, and won seven World Series, his final two years brought less success, with a third-place finish in 1959, and a loss in the 1960 World Series. By then aged 70, he was dismissed by the Yankees shortly after the defeat.Stengel had become well known for his humorous and sometimes disjointed way of speech during his time with the Yankees, and these skills of showmanship served the expansion Mets well when they hired him in late 1961. He promoted the team tirelessly, as well as managing it to a 40–120 win–loss record, the most losses of any 20th century MLB team. The team finished last all four years he managed it, but was boosted by considerable support from fans. Stengel retired in 1965, and became a fixture at baseball events for the rest of his life. Although Stengel is sometimes described as one of the great managers in major league history, others have contrasted his success during the Yankee years with his lack of success at other times, and concluded he was a good manager only when given good players. Stengel is remembered as one of the great characters in baseball history.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:59 UTC on Monday, 29 September 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Casey Stengel on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Salli.

It's important for a team to get off to a great start, but there needs to be follow through to not be like the 20-8 Pirates. Derek Shelton was fired when the team was 12-26. Bob said it didn't make much of a difference for him to play spoiler and keep a team out of the playoff race like the Pirates taking 2/3 from the Reds. Bob is not sure if Henry Davis will be the starter next year if his offense struggles.

Who would you sit next to on a flight to Ireland? DeShon Elliott was a full participant in practice and will play against the Vikings. Marc-Andre Fleury is the perfect player to have this sendoff. He hasn't played for the Pens in close to a decade. Can you see the Pirates in a playoff spot or a game out of the playoffs in a year?

Nick Kirby and Trace Fowler break down a frustrating loss for the Cincinnati Reds against the Pittsburgh Pirates and what it means for the NL Wild Card race. They dive into the Reds' ongoing offensive inconsistency, evaluate Brady Singer's outing, and debate whether Hunter Greene should have gotten the start on Tuesday. The guys also highlight Connor Phillips' impressive season, discuss the arrival of the ABS system in MLB for 2025, and more. Plus, a preview of Wednesday's marquee pitching matchup: Hunter Greene vs. Paul Skenes.   Go to https://OmahaSteaks.com to get 50% off sitewide during their Red-Hot Sale Event.
