Show Notes

On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey previews NHL free agency for GM Kyle Dubas and the Penguins. What should we make of the Kevin Hayes trade with the St. Louis Blues over the weekend? And what should we expect as free agents begin signing with teams officially on Monday? Is there anything Dubas can do to meaningfully upgrade the roster around Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Kris Letang? Or are his options limited?

Then later, Jason reacts to the Pirates' series loss against the Atlanta Braves over the weekend. Does the June surge by Rowdy Tellez eliminate the need for a first baseman ahead of the MLB trade deadline at the end of the month? Can Oneil Cruz start to show more consistency after a clutch homer Sunday? And how can GM Ben Cherington improve the offense beyond those guys?
