Dan Zangrilli unpacks A LOT on the Pirates

Pirates pre-post game host Dan Zangrilli joined the show. Dan doesn’t think we see a super quick firing of Derek Shelton if things don’t improve by the end of the month. Dan described Bob Nutting as ‘ticked off’ because of both on-field and off-field nonsense surrounding the team. Dan doesn’t think anyone has a clue of what’s going on or what will happen outside of Nutting, besides maybe, a very small circle. Dan couldn’t say for a fact if Shelton is hands-off when it comes to working with hitters, since he does carry a hitting background. Dan commented on a few things we heard from Ben Cherington yesterday before the game. The guys questioned the internal projections of the team in 2025 and if the team expected to be this bad.
