The Pirates are still standing above .500, but the next three weeks may tell us what this team really is. With Oneil Cruz and Spencer Horwitz still out, Pittsburgh now faces a brutal run against the Braves, Brewers, Guardians, Yankees, Cubs, and Diamondbacks. On today’s Bucco Brew, we talk surviving the stretch, Paul Skenes, All-Star snubs, the catching tandem, and Konnor Griffin.
