PLEASE, BEN… One More Big Pirates Move Before Opening Day

from North Shore Nine: A Pittsburgh Pirates Podcast · host North Shore Nine

The Pirates have made moves this offseason. The roster looks better. The vibes are improving. And yet… it still feels like something is missing. On this episode of Bucco Brew, we’re asking the question every Pirates fan is quietly (or loudly) thinking: are they actually done? We break down what the current roster says about the team’s confidence, where the biggest question marks remain, and whether trusting internal options is enough for a team that believes it can contend. Is this a “wait until the deadline” situation? Is one more bat or arm the difference between meaningful baseball and another near-miss? Or is this simply the roster we’re riding with into Opening Day? Grab your coffee, join the conversation, and decide for yourself: Do the Pirates need one more move… or are we asking for too much? ️️ Use Promo Code NS930 for 30% off your first order at https://www.defer.coffee Use Promo Code NS9 for 30% off your first order at https://www.gritily.com Use Promo Code NORTHSHORENINE for $20 off your first order at https://www.seatgeek.com LIKE and SUBSCRIBE with NOTIFICATIONS ON if you enjoyed the show!
