Long Form (multi topic, hourly/full show)

(Hour 2 with Joe Starkey and Bob Pompeani)

The Pirates have announced their opening day roster and Jared Jones has made the team. Henry Davis also starts in the majors after rumors they could start him in the minors. Luis Ortiz may be in the 5th starters spot. The question is now: why is Paul Skenes not in the majors to make the rotation better? Why have the Pirates not taken a look at Trevor Bauer? If the Pirates signed Aroldis Chapman and Domingo German, are they really worried about Bauer's past? 

Joe and Bob look at the NFL quarterback carousel and who upgraded and who downgraded. Mike Tomlin said that the Steelers never had any interest in Kirk Cousins.

Hour 1 with Joe Starkey: Paul Skenes is here! The Pirates announced yesterday the top pitching prospect in baseball will start Saturday against the Cubs at PNC Park. We recall other notable debuts in Pittsburgh sports over the past 10 years. 
Air Force head coach Mike Kazlausky joined the show. Paul Skenes caught and pitched during his senior year and was a 6-foot-6 leadoff man who also closed games. Kaz thought Skenes could have been a first-round pick at catcher. He told us Skenes still wants to serve in the Air Force once his baseball career is over and cried when they had a conversation about transferring.

Steelers Hall of Fame running back Jerome Bettis joined the show. Jerome is helping out at the Joe Moore o-line camp. Jerome was surprised, but not at the same time that Najee Harris did not have his fifth-year option picked up because of how running backs have been devalued. Jerome recalled old Steelers stories and once said he thought Najee had the chance to be better than him. A lot of it also has to do with health and productivity of the offensive line.

Hour 2 with Joe Starkey: Paul Skenes is one of, if not the hardest throwing starting pitcher in recent baseball history. Kaz doesn't think there's ever been a sophomore team captain at Air Force baseball, but Skenes was. He takes great pride in being the leader of the school and Skenes carried around the flag at football games and helped to defend it.
