It’s great for Pittsburgh, it just sucks that they have a crappy owner that is like the As owner and doesn’t want to pay anyone

Jeff Passan's statement is interesting... so MLB owners aren't basically Gods? The player's association can actually step in if the owner is being a dipshit and won't invest in their team?

Nutting bought the Pirates for $92m in '96 and the team is now worth almost $1.3b. He has made so much money and has NEVER put it back into the team. He should have sold the team to someone that actually wants to win a long time ago, if he isn't willing to pay to try to contend. I'm born and raised here in Pittsburgh and having a half decent baseball team again has been held hostage for far too long by that POS!

I like his priorities. Donating $100 to the Gary Sinise Foundation for every strikeout he records this season. The money will go directly toward raising funds for veterans and first responders. Doesn't matter where he's playing. I'm a fan. Hopefully he'll keep doing well and have a great career.

"get away with his hyperbole"? That's how Pat moves the topic along, instead just asking basic questions, he makes jokes, says over the top stuff, etc. that's going to produce the same answer in response. As well as actually being entertaining.

yeah my first thought was Randy Johnson trajectory. Could always throw crazy hard but the wipeout slider was what put him on the next level. I just hope he stays healthy long term throwing that hard. Seems like everyone throwing 100 needs Tommy John now.
Passan exposed himself and clearly doesn't watch Pirates baseball
I don’t watch sports media at all besides this show but I assume there’s not a lot of people who are absolute menaces to that guy during an interview 🤣🤣
Bob Nutting will somehow trade this kid away for a Tall Boy of Rolling Rock and HALF a pack of Newport Menthol 100’s.
Splinker has been around for a bit. Duran of the Twins is someone who has thrown it a lot the last 2-3 years. Nasty stuff!

Yea Reda never aquire really good players just decent average players who are up and down when it comes to consistency
You get guys who go to pitching clinics that teach you to throw harder. And you also have pitcher's arms falling off. Its great to know you can throw heat when you want to, but you could also dial it back into the upper 90's and have a long career. Justin Verlander would be a great pitcher to mirror. Dude can throw heat, but he can comfortably and sustainably throw upper 90's and keeps his arm intact. The problem is the ball clubs are treating pitchers like cattle. They could give two shits if your arm falls off. They'll go find another pitching clinic graduate who again, from an early age has been taught the most optimal way to throw hard and as such has way more stress miles on his arm. The incentive structure is set up for pitchers to want to throw as hard as possible. He's being rewarded by McAfee for how excited he is because he throws hard. Never mind the guy was throwing darts at spots. We have to start promoting pitcher health over the circus attraction crap. See what the old legends have to say about pitching right now. They will all agree that the incentive structure does not care about pitcher health. It only cares about finding guys who can gas the ball right now.
The answer to the question is no. There isn't a single person who can change baseball by themselves.....but for sure he's gonna change whatever team he's on.

The Pirates will trade him by mid season for "future prospects". Because that's what they always do. Such a shame, beautiful stadium, great fans, crap owner.

McAfee's right there should be a separate BeQueffed Run Average or BRA 🙂
We Pirate fans have been saying this about Nutting for 25 years. He's NOT going to spend the money to make them competitive. Sadly, Skenes will probably be gone in 5 years. We need a new owner!
Jeff looks like he does tumbling for a workout
Think people are overhyping the TJ talk. He hasn’t put near as many innings on his arm as some of the other top prospects. He only started pitching a few years ago & has an effortless delivery
this slider was insane.
I don’t follow baseball, but this segment was funny as hell.
I Agree With Pat In My Mad Mel/Lou Holtz Voice
I wanna see pat watching mason miller highlights
I appreciate the hype Pat But in due time, the league will adjust to his stuff and he will get hit. These hitters are too good. Let’s just let the kid pitch and figure out the details in time.

As much as I can’t stand Bob Nutting, I do agree and think there’s a better chance he will actually spend some money this next off season to better the team. If he doesn’t, while having Paul Skenes, Jared Jones, AND Mitch Keller all in rotation, then he absolutely needs to go. The time is NOW and he’s an idiot if he passes up this opportunity
Pirates young pitchers have a resemblance with Verlander and Scherzer
He's going to be unreal man! So excited to get to watch this guy play in my city. I have to push back against the Nutting not spending money. I'm from Pittsburgh, so I know EXACTLY where its coming from. It's been like that for a long time now. BUT imo he has started spending money. Locked down Reynolds, locked down Hayes, and brought back Cutch. I saw we go get Trevor Bauer back now that he's not guilty.
Yinzer here, he's gonna be great! Can't wait to trade him for some guy named Captain Jacksparrow or some crap in a couple years.
Him and Bobby Witt Jr
He’s going to be a great Yankee or Dodger in a couple years.
PNC is the best park in the league. Beautiful park
There needs to be a minimum salary floor along with salary caps. I live in S Florida, home of the Marlins🤮
Dude went 4 innings 🙄
He'll win the Cy Young for sure - but it wont be with the Pirates! They let him go because he'll be too expensive BUT they'll bring him back at the end of his career and then over pay him.
Best AA ball club in the major league!
Pat has gotta be the funniest mf 😂
Come on Pat, Mason Miller is a Pittsburgher, Bethel Park alumni.
Hey Drew Bledsoe on the show
He'll be a Dodger in 4 years
It’s good for baseball because he’s smashing livvy dunne

CHANGE THE FOCUS ON YOUR WEBCAM JEFF
It’s great to see the pirates have some fun players coming up just sucks their owner is dirt cheap. I think jones is even nastier
PITTSBURGH BABY!!
Strongest arm? People forget about Ben Joyce?
Make him a Yankee! After his Tommy John's, surgery of course.
Pirate ownership has to be the worst in the league, maybe the worst in all pro sports. The guy got a free stadium, and gets $ on parking, concessions, tshirts, tix, etc. He gets more from MLB than he actually pays in payroll. Putting more $$ in the team lessens his profits. He is totally content being the feeder team to the rest of the league. He is not a baseball fan. The team is a line item entry for him. He turned down a Cuban backed offer to sell the team and a Lemieux backed offer after whining that he has losses every year. They are always in the top half for attendance. He will not put more money in the team.
it's the Cubs.. relax
How long until he breaks his arm?

Skenes will be gone from Pittsburgh as soon as his rookie contract is over. Nutting doesn’t reinvest in the team to keep players of this caliber.
Let's go Bucs !!!!!
Unfortunately, Don’t expect him to be Pirates version of Ben Roethlisberger or Sidney Crosby. He’ll be in Dodger blue or Yankee pinstripes soon.

He barely has a pubic hair in the show and now we're suggesting he's changing baseball? Stop...Do you not see the rash of Tommy John surgeries that are plaguing baseball? Skenes threw 100 MPH at least 15 times in one of his starts. There is a difference between pitching and throwing. Skenes is in the latter category. It won't be long before he joins the scrap heap of flamethrowers who fail to learn how to harness their heat
