Why is Pirates' Ben Cherington touting improvement as losses pile up? A Steelers WR is stepping up?
On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist reacts to Pirates GM Ben Cherington saying his team is better in 2024 despite multiple signs of statistical regression and a worse record so far. What is Cherington seeing that we're not? Is the performance of the rotation with Paul Skenes, Mitch Keller, Jared Jones and Bailey Falter the reason for optimism? Or is there something else? Jason tackles those questions, then gets into some Steelers topics. Is there really a competition at tackle? Or are Troy Fautanu and Broderick Jones the obvious starters despite offseason coach speak? And does Van Jefferson have a narrow edge on names like Quez Watkins and Scotty Miller for playing time in this WR room?
