Starkey & Mueller

Pirates insider Jason Mackey joined the show. Did the front office push for Don Kelly to pull Bubba Chandler last night? The guys wanted to know the predetermined nature of decisions like the one made last night. Should we be concerned about Brandon Lowe and Ryan O’Hearn, who are both in the midst of a rough drought? Jason projects Spencer Horwitz to return ‘this weekend’ and Oneil Cruz possibly in the next 2 weeks. Jason said the report of the Pirates not spending extra cash at the deadline is ‘baloney.’ Jason doesn’t think there will be a half measure taken this time around.
