North Shore Nine

The frustration around the Pittsburgh Pirates is starting to boil over — and no one seems to have the answers. On the latest episode of NS9LIVE, we break down the team’s clubhouse vibes during this brutal stretch, with insights from Post-Gazette reporter Colin Beazley. While Don Kelly’s calm presence has helped avoid a total meltdown, it’s clear the players are pressing, and tempers are rising. We also dive into Paul Skenes‘ All-Star case, Oneil Cruz in the Derby, and the Tommy Pham renaissance — yes, he’s suddenly raking. And with Jack Suwinski back, we debate whether he’s worth another look or just another lost cause. Plus, what’s next for Donnie Ball as the roster likely gets younger?
