Do Pirates' offensive failures run deeper than Andy Haines? Time for Nick Gonzales, Ji Hawn Bae?
On his daily First 10 podcast, Jason Mackey reacts to the Pirates' latest loss to the Oakland Athletics, in which their offense struggled mightily once again. Is it fair to just blame hitting coach Andy Haines for the struggles of young players including Oneil Cruz and Jack Suwinski? Or do the team's problems run deeper? What can or should manager Derek Shelton change? And is it time minor-league options like Nick Gonzales and Ji Hwan Bae get opportunities in this lineup? Jason tackles those topics, then talks about the changes the Penguins and Steelers need to make in their respective offseasons.
