The Pirates entered the All-Star break with a 110 wRC+, tied for the second-best mark in baseball. Since the break? Their 76 wRC+ ranks dead last.
Jim and Tyler break down how Pittsburgh’s offense completely fell apart, including the massive second-half declines from Bryan Reynolds, Spencer Horwitz and others, the impact of injuries, their continued inability to hit left-handed pitching and one very interesting theory about MLB’s midseason AI ban.
They also discuss Endy Rodriguez’s latest major injury, what it means for his future and the Pirates’ catching situation, plus the latest CBA proposals involving weekly rosters, the Rule 5 Draft and a dramatically different MLB offseason calendar.
