Post-Gazette Pirates insider Noah Hiles discusses his key takeaways from the team's 5-2 win over the Orioles on Saturday afternoon at Ed Smith Stadium in Sarasota, Fla. Saturday marked Paul Skenes' first appearance of spring training. How did he fare, and how did his new offerings look as he hopes to build on a Rookie of the Year campaign in 2024? The Pirates hit four home runs Saturday, including one by Oneil Cruz. Is this a sign of things to come for the shortstop turned center fielder? What can Nick Solak provide for the Pirates after he, too, went deep Saturday? And first-round pick Konnor Griffin mashed the game-winning home run Saturday. Is that power part of his scouting report, and where might we see Griffin to start the season? Noah answers those questions and more.
