The window is finally cracking open in Pittsburgh… but will the Pirates actually spend enough to take advantage of it?

Tonight on NS9LIVE, we break down the new Baseball America column asking whether it’s even possible for the Pirates to fail with Paul Skenes and Konnor Griffin headlining the future. Are these two truly “can’t fail” talents, or is history more complicated than the headline suggests?

We also dive into Ben Cherington’s latest comments about having “flexibility” and being ready to “spend a little” this offseason. Is that real progress, or the same song Pirates fans have heard for years?

And of course… the noise around Paul Skenes and the Yankees. How worried should fans actually be?

Join us for a full breakdown, real fan perspective, and live reactions.
