    Enjoy the daily shots but far too many shows built around the idea of “let’s read listener emails”.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

DK’s Daily Shot of Steelers: Absolute abomination
Q: Is it really just tackle better, play harder like the head coach seems to want everybody to believe?
The issue is beyond just effort; it's a combination of tackling, execution, and coaching that needs addressing.
DK’s Daily Shot of Pirates: The vanishing scout
Q: How much of Bryan Reynolds and or O'Neil Cruz's hitting was impacted by the lack of lineup protection?
The lineup around them isn't good, but advanced analytics show that lineup protection is largely exaggerated. Reynolds and Cruz were getting good pitches but failing to capitalize on them.
DK's Daily Shot of Penguins: It's 6-2, and it's the how
Q: What has changed with Tristan Jari?
Jari's performance reflects his consistent gameplay and the overall improvement of the team's structure and resilience, not a sudden change in skill.
DK's Daily Shot of Steelers: A defensive surprise?
Q: DK, how do you expect this defense to bounce back?
The defense needs to adapt and surprise the opponents; fixing their predictability is critical.
DK's Daily Shot of Pirates: Where/how to upgrade?
Q: Is Bob Nutting waiting to see if a salary cap is put into place before engaging Paul Skeens in extension talks?
No, it would be gambling to make decisions based on potential salary cap changes.
