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.
