    We Ranked EVERY 2026 Pittsburgh Pirate... Paul Skenes in C Tier?!

    The 2026 season is over, so it’s time for our FINAL Pittsburgh Pirates tier list. Nate & Neil went back through the entire roster and ranked everyone from S to F based on their performance, impact and what we expected from them coming into the year. Brandon Lowe and Oneil Cruz headline the S tier, but things get weird fast when Rafael Flores Jr., Mason Montgomery and Yohan Ramirez all end up ranked ahead of Paul Skenes. We also get into Konnor Griffin, Bryan Reynolds, Jared Jones, Bubba Chandler, Braxton Ashcraft, Esmerlyn Valdez and plenty more while looking back at how much our first-half rankings changed.

    Where Does Nick Gonzales Fit for the Pirates in 2027?

    Alex Stumpf takes a look at where Nick Gonzales fits into the Pirates’ plans for 2027. With Konnor Griffin expected at shortstop, Brandon Lowe headed toward free agency and questions remaining at both second and third base, Pittsburgh has some decisions to make in the infield. Could Gonzales settle back in at second? Is third base still an option? Could the Pirates even explore getting him reps in the outfield? Alex breaks down what went wrong defensively in 2026, why locking Gonzales into one position could help, and why the Pirates may need answers before a potential MLB lockout begins.

    Jared Jones’ Historic September Changes Everything for 2027

    Jared Jones ended 2026 with one of the best months by a Pirates pitcher in more than a century. Alex Stumpf breaks down what changed in September, why the development of Jones’ curveball and changeup matters, and how a deeper four-pitch arsenal could set him up for a major step forward in 2027. Plus, Mason Montgomery takes home NL Reliever of the Month honors, and Alex looks at what Jones could mean for a 2027 rotation featuring Paul Skenes, Braxton Ashcraft, Bubba Chandler and potentially Mitch Keller.

    The Pirates are done, so OffBeat is going around Major League Baseball as October begins. Alex Stumpf breaks down all four Wild Card matchups and makes his picks. Can the young White Sox finish off an 81-81 Astros team? Does Philadelphia have enough star power to overcome its ugly finish? Can Aaron Judge push the Yankees past Boston? And could San Diego's dominant back end of the bullpen be built perfectly for a short series? Then Alex goes through the rest of the bracket and explains why he has the Brewers and Rays meeting in the World Series.

    The Pirates Fell Short, But Something Changed in 2026

    The Pirates finished 2026 at 82-80, falling short of the postseason but securing just their fifth winning season in the last 34 years. Alex Stumpf looks at what stood out during the final weekend in Detroit and why the way this group finished may matter beyond the record. From Kirby Yates' emotional sendoff and Bubba Chandler opening up about his season to Konnor Griffin turning an individual question into an answer about the team, there were signs of the culture the Pirates are trying to build under Don Kelly. Plus, why Brandon Lowe has become such an important part of that clubhouse and why bringing him back could be one of Pittsburgh's biggest offseason priorities.
