In our latest podcast episode, we discuss the World Series matchup and if there are any takeaways from the Pirates’ point of view.
Is building through pitching still the right way to go?
Is there anything the Pirates can learn from either team, even though they are two high-payroll teams?
We talk about that in the first segment of the show.
Now that we are two weeks in the Arizona Fall League, we discuss who has stood out, both on the Pirates end and in general.
We also go over our general expectations when it comes to the AFL and other Winter Leagues.
Speaking of Winter Leagues, the Dominican Winter League kicked off recently, and we go over the Pirates participants—Liover Peguero and Yoyner Fajardo.
With Endy Rodriguez getting hurt last year, does it make sense to stress the Winter League experience despite the upside of getting those added plate appearances?
Finally, Termarr Johnson will remain busy, as he will play for Team USA in the Premier12 tournament in November with a familiar face—Rich Hill.
Lots of questions are tossed out there; what are your thoughts?
