    Is Paul Skenes Finally in His First MLB Slump?

    Paul Skenes has been the most reliable arm the Pittsburgh Pirates have had, but this latest stretch has looked different. After allowing 15 runs, 13 earned, over his last four starts, Skenes once again failed to get through five innings against the Houston Astros despite throwing a career-high 109 pitches. Alex Stumpf breaks down why this does not feel like panic time, but why it is fair to say Skenes looks slightly off for the first real time in his MLB career. From the missing splinker to the changeup location, sweeper command, deeper counts, defensive issues behind him, and what it could mean with a Dodgers start potentially looming, this episode of OffBeat takes a closer look at what is actually happening with the Pirates ace.

  2. Pirates Bullpen Meltdown Wastes Another Big Offensive Night

    Pirates Bullpen Meltdown Wastes Another Big Offensive Night

    The Pittsburgh Pirates had another huge night from the offense, including a grand slam from Henry Davis, three hits from Spencer Horwitz, and more production throughout the lineup. Somehow, it still was not enough. Neil and Doug break down the Pirates’ brutal 11-9 loss to the Houston Astros, where the bullpen surrendered eight runs over the final two innings and turned what looked like another comfortable win into one of the worst losses of the season. The guys discuss the bullpen usage, Gregory Soto, Mason Montgomery, Johan Ramirez, Nick Gonzalez’s defense, Paul Skenes’ uneven outing, and why this kind of loss says a lot more about the roster than just one bad night.

    Konnor Griffin’s Injury Suddenly Changes the Pirates’ Lineup

    Konnor Griffin was arguably the Pirates’ most valuable position player in May, tying for the team lead with 30 hits, batting .306, and finishing just behind Brandon Lowe in fWAR. Now, he starts June on the injured list. Alex Stumpf breaks down Griffin’s rapid rise, the adjustments that fueled his strong May, why this injury matters more than some of the Pirates’ other setbacks, and how thin the internal options look without him on the left side of the infield.

  4. Carmen Mlodzinski’s Pirates Future Just Got Complicated

    Carmen Mlodzinski’s Pirates Future Just Got Complicated

    Carmen Mlodzinski’s role with the Pittsburgh Pirates suddenly feels a lot more complicated. After being moved back to the bullpen, Mlodzinski landed on the restricted list, creating a strange situation for the Pirates’ rotation, bullpen, and his future with the organization. Jim and DiNardo discuss why Carmen had every reason to be frustrated after losing his rotation spot, why the way things played out afterward is harder to defend, and what this means for a Pirates bullpen that still badly needs help. They also get into Konnor Griffin landing on the IL after his forearm injury did not heal quickly enough for him to throw during the road series, plus Ryan O’Hearn returning much earlier than expected and already making an impact with his bat. Can O’Hearn help soften the blow of losing Konnor Griffin? And where do the Pirates go from here with Mlodzinski? Listen to Bucco Brew for the full discussion.
