NS9LIVE! opened with a fun conversation about the World Baseball Classic before shifting into the main topic: predicting the Pirates’ 2026 Opening Day roster. The crew broke down each position group, debating key battles like Henry Davis vs. Joey Bart behind the plate, Nick Yorke’s chances, Tyler Callihan’s fit, and the biggest question of all — whether Konnor Griffin has done enough to force his way onto the roster. They also worked through the pitching staff, discussing the fifth starter battle, bullpen construction, and which players could be left off the 40-man roster. Alex Stumpf also joined to preview the debut of his new daily NS9 podcast, Offbeat.
