The Pirates called up Bubba Chandler earlier today, to be a reliever. Many people believe that this makes no sense. The guys think that the Pirates should have called him up when he was hot earlier in the season. Apparently Max Scherzer wanted the Blue Jays to trade for Tommy Pham, as reported by Tommy Pham on Twitter. Donny Football Debrief – The NFL and Crocs have announced a multi-year licensing agreement.

Ben Roethlisberger thinks that Aaron Rodgers and DK Metcalf could potentially be special. Poni points out that Ben wanted Mitch Trubisky to be the guy over both Rudolph and Pickett. Ben also said afterwards that Pickett could be great. Poni says that 1100 yards and 8 touchdowns for DK Metcalf would not be a special season. Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show.

Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk joined the show. Mike says that he thinks Rodgers should be playing in the preseason due to the hostile environment week 1 at his former home. He also says that this is just part of the Aaron Rodgers experience. Mike says it was smart for Heyward to start practicing so that he can avoid injury in the regular season.

Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show. Matt says that his call-up was similar to that of Bubba Chandler today, however that Padres team that called him up was a World Series team, and not a last place team. Clement says that he struggled his last few months in Triple A, just like Chandler did. He also says that moving from a starter to a bullpen arm is a big adjustment.

Aaron Rodgers won’t play in the preseason. This is the first example of Rodgers taking advantage of Mike Tomlin. Even late in his career, Ben Roethlisberger played in preseason games. Is it a mistake for the Steelers to not have Rodgers at least get his feet wet? The injury concern is there, sure, but there is a real chance the offense comes out flat in Week 1. Our voiceover guy with another banger. The Steelers brought in Dalton Risner for a visit – a guard that played good football for a 14-wi...

ALL ACCESS w/ Aditi – The guys asked Aditi if Kenny Pickett will play at all in the Browns preseason finale after not playing at all this preseason. Aditi thinks Pickett had a good chance to be the Browns starter if he did not get hurt early in training camp. Poni told Aditi he was upset by the praise for Shedeur Sanders after the first preseason game. Are the Steelers making a mistake by not playing Aaron Rodgers in the preseason? Aditi definitively said Rodgers will get more leeway from Mike T...

Pirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. Brown was inducted into the Buffalo baseball hall of fame. Greg says he just now heard about Andrew McCutchen’s comments, but says there’s nothing newsworthy there. McCutchen implied that the Pirates need to spend more to try to win. Brownie says that spending more isn’t the clear answer to the problem. Greg also said that he didn’t understand the Aroldis Chapman signing last year.

Jim Nantz thinks that the Aaron Rodgers experiment will work for the Steelers. Gabe Davis left the Steelers facility without a contract again, as confirmed by Josh Allen. Mullsy says that it is a no-brainer for Davis, and that he should sign with Buffalo. Terry Mclaurin was absent from the Commanders preseason game last night. Should the Steelers try to acquire Terry?

Poni isn’t letting himself get sucked up by the hoopla of the preseason, because that has certainly never happened before. He thinks people are fools because they still have Mike Tomlin as the head coach. Poni made sure to let people know he will not be a sucker this season because Tomlin and Aaron Rodgers won’t get the Steelers over the hump.

Poni does not think that Skylar Thompson will make the team, or be able to fetch a late round draft pick. Poni also says that the Jaxson Dart glazing is out of control. Mullsy says that the Steelers don’t deserve criticism for passing on Dart if he ends up being really good. The Steelers offense looks pretty conservative in the preseason. Joe Flacco was named the Browns starting QB, at least for now. Poni thinks we need to get to the bottom of AI. One caller is very fond of Jaxson Dart. Donny Fo...

We reacted to the Steelers preseason loss to the Buccaneers on Saturday night. No big concerns over the outcome of the game, but the game produced a question as we get closer to the regular season – do the Steelers have a plan at WR2? Roman Wilson showed us a little something in the game, but Calvin Austin is still hurt and the Steelers have Gabe Davis coming in for his second visit in almost as many months. How much weight can you carry preseason performances with? Do the Steelers value a WR2? ...
