Pirates Finish 82-80... Now What Comes Next?

The Pirates finished the 2026 season 82-80, securing their first winning season since 2018. So now what?

DiNardo and the crew look at what this season actually changed heading into 2027, including the huge September from Jared Jones, Konnor Griffin ending the year with a bang, Brandon Lowe’s future in Pittsburgh, and what Ben Cherington needs to accomplish this offseason.

Plus, we put ourselves to the test with the 2026 Pirates Sporcle Challenge. Can we name every single player who appeared for the Pirates this season?
