Post-Gazette Pirates insider Noah Hiles previews the team's three-game series on the road against the Los Angeles Angels this week. With the team in a slide, will Derek Shelton seek to find more consistency with the lineups he puts out, eschewing the strategy of off days we've seen for players like Oneil Cruz and Andrew McCutchen already this season? What can we expect from the Pirates' probable starters in this series — Bailey Falter, Andrew Heaney and Carmen Mlodzinski? Is this Mlodzinski's last chance to prove he can be a viable option as a starting pitcher? With the Angels likely to start former Pirate Tyler Anderson and former Pirates farmhand Jose Soriano this series, what does it say about the current state of the organization in Pittsburgh? Noah gives his scouting report of the Angels, who so far this season have showed power at the plate thanks to names like Mike Trout, Logan O'Hoppe, Kyren Paris and Taylor Ward but have struggled out of the bullpen. Noah answers those questions and more.

Are we using Aaron Nola and Robbie Ray with two starts? Jose Quintana is a two-start pitcher to add and stream next week. Luis Severino and David Festa have great matchups. Jonathan Aranda and Taylor Ward lead the sleeper hitters for Week 5.

Here's to believing that Pottymouth's picks for LAA and MIA are men from Florida and not Florida Man. Patti avoids the potential pitfall by concentrating on California instead and exploring the ongoing Taylor vs Tyler naming conventions. We are flabbergasted that Aroldis F'n Chapman can still get a job and this Maura McGurk piece explains it better than we can. We workshop some approaches for a confrontation between Pottymouth and AF'nC such as, “I'm a schoolteacher.  How do you explain yourself to my students?” There's a new MLBPA Executive Committee in place and it is just as pitcher-y and boyfriend-y as always. Plus bonus potential kerfuffle. Patti takes a moment to put public funding for Vegas and St. Pete ballparks into perspective. Japanese pitching legend Ayami Sato becomes the first woman to play baseball professionally in Canada. Our police blotter touches on the civil suit around Tyler Skagg's death, Shohei's baseball cards, and the ridiculous Golden At Bat rule that was just floated for the heck of it. Check out our bonus content on the Jonrón Derby over on Patreon.We say, “Catholics know this word,” “It's all a scene down in the basement,” and “You don't want loose bodies.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Sho Alli and Daniele Franceschi break down the Blue Jays' 3-1 win over the Angels to take the series at the Rogers Centre! They take your calls and texts, and get right to Bowden Francis turning in one of the best starts of the year, as he took a no-hitter into the ninth inning - despite having it broken up by Taylor Ward in the ninth, how impressive was the outing for Francis? Has he done enough to earn a spot in the rotation next year, or do you need to see more? Plus, they get into great days for Joey Loperfido and Vladimir Guerrero Jr., the latter of whom hit his 27th home run of the season. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

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.

MLB insider Bob Nightengale from USA Today joined the show. Bob thinks the Pirates are going to make another small trade or two, if anything. He thinks they are basically in no-man's land and doesn't truly see them as in the race. Bob wonders if the Pirates will limit their starters by season's end. He could see the Pirates maybe reuniting with Josh Bell, but it does not sound like anything major is on the way. Bob said Taylor Ward is basically out of the question. Steelers insider Brian Batko from the PG joined the show. Brian gave his take on what Justin Fields has looked like in his early cracks during training camp. Brian said Donte Jackson is a player that has surprised him so far in Latrobe. Should we be worried about the dust ups from George Pickens in the first couple of days in camp? We are still very down after the chat with Bob Nightengale. Is there any prayer the Pirates make a move of significance? Why are the Pirates afraid of letting prospects go?

On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey poses six questions the Pirates must answer in the second half of the season. Will we see innings limits for Jared Jones and Paul Skenes? Will young pitchers including Luis Ortiz, Quinn Priester and Mike Burrows play key roles down the stretch? And what will GM Ben Cherington do at the MLB trade deadline at the end of the month? Why do names like the Los Angeles Angels Taylor Ward and the Oakland Athletics make the most sense as targets? And is there a chance Aroldis Chapman and his hefty contract could be sent out of town, even if the Pirates add with the intention of fighting for a playoff spot? Jason tackles those questions and more. Then later, he offers thoughts on whether Derek Shelton has been a good manager for the club; what Jeff Capel's extension should mean for Pitt basketball; and the latest in the Brandon Aiyuk trade drama with the San Francisco 49ers.

In his weekly YouTube appearance, Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise offers his thoughts on some Steelers over/under prop bets available at some sports books. Should George Pickens be a safe bet to go over 1,000 yards? Or will Arthur Smith's run-heavy offense hold him back? Is 775.5 rushing yards too low a number for Najee Harris? Or will Jaylen Warren eat into his numbers this year? And will Pat Freiermuth stay healthy enough to go over 50.5 catches? Our duo tackles those questions, then Ben Cherington's options ahead of the MLB trade deadline. What's the latest on Paul's report connecting the Los Angeles Angels' Taylor Ward to Pittsburgh? If the Pirates don't get closer to .500, could names like Aroldis Chapman, Rowdy Tellez and others be on the way out? And what are the chances Mitch Keller is moved with his salary set to increase significantly in the coming years?

The Los Angeles Angels fell to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Monday night, and it might be easy to blame Tyler Anderson for surrendering a grand slam in the 3rd inning, but the Halos ran themselves into outs and failed to play fundamental baseball. With all the preseason talk of playing basic, fundamental baseball, it sure has alluded the team in recent weeks. So, what's the deal? Who's responsible? Why isn't Nolan Schanuel sliding into home, and why isn't Taylor Ward telling him to slide more emphatically? Is Eric Young Sr. to blame for the send? The Halos can't read the room, and we'll tell you what we mean in segment 1.Then, Mike says that this Halos team needs a leader, so who should it be? None of this "quiet leader, lead by example" nonsense we've heard over the years. Who's going to be the excitable, vocal guy in the clubhouse? We'll share our ideas in segment 2!Plus, the Angels have 4 top-100 draft picks this year, and nearly $13 million to spend on them. We'll give you a rundown of what that means, what slot value is, and, who are some previous picks that have been drafted at the same numbers the Halos have this year?
