00:00How do you think Skeen's and Keller will do for the Pirates?

00:04They do have great young pitchers and nothing else.

00:08But how do you think those three arms are going to do in Pittsburgh?

00:11Will they win games?

00:13You know, you always set me up here with a Pirates question and I love

00:17you about this and I want your Pirates to succeed and here's the best

00:19part.

00:20They've got more pitching coming down the pipeline.

00:22I mean, there is a lot of pitching still to come here for the Pittsburgh

00:26Pirates.

00:27So, at this point, I think when you have a rotation that's got guys

00:31like Skeen's at the top, Jones, maybe you get some more from Keller

00:35this year.

00:35You got some of these other young kids who are coming through right

00:37now at the AAA and AA levels.

00:39You have a lot of pitching.

00:40There's been some rumbles in the offseason that Jones might be a guy

00:43that they might flip for some offense.

00:46I don't think that's a bad idea.

00:47And to tell you the truth, if I'm the Orioles right now, I've got a

00:50glut of all these young prospects I've got.

00:52I don't have enough spots for all these guys in my lineup, whether

00:56it's the Heston Kerstads or the Kobe Mayos and all these guys that

00:59they've got.

01:00They just lost Corbin Burns.

01:03I love Grayson Rodriguez.

01:04I look at the rest of that rotation and I'm a little worried about the

01:07Orioles this year.

01:08If the Orioles were smart, they would get together for a meeting of

01:11the minds and get a guy like Jared Jones and flip one of these position

01:15player infield prospects they have, whether it be a Westberg or a Kobe

01:19Mayo or even an outfield by Kerstad.

01:21It makes sense for both of these organizations because losing Corbin

01:24Burns at the top is huge for this team.

01:26And like I said, Grayson's great.

01:28The rest of this rotation, I think, is questionable.

01:30And I think the Red Sox, the Jays and the Yankees all made improvements

01:33last year.

01:34So the Orioles are in trouble, I think.

01:37Well, I mean, we see Bregman go to Boston.

01:39I hate to talk about the Red Sox, but I'd rather hear what you think of

01:42them than talk about the Dodgers.

01:44It makes me want to puke.

01:46No, Garrett Crochet acquiring him.

01:48That's a huge game changer.

01:50And the fact they didn't have to move any of their prospects like

01:52Roman Anthony or Christian Campbell.

01:54Both those guys will make big impacts.

01:56I'm sure in 2025.

01:57And I think it's smart to move Devers off third base in favor of

02:01Bregman.

02:01I think it's going to happen sooner than later.
