Yesterday I had my weekly radio interview with David Todd on ESPN 970 in Pittsburgh. Here are the highlights of the interview, with the full podcast below.
**We talked about the latest injury updates, including the progress of Jung-ho Kang and whether he could return on Opening Day. We also discussed the updates to Cory Luebke, Robert Zarate, and the left-handed relief battle, if the Pirates decide to go with two lefty relievers.
**David brought up the Gerrit Cole topic, and I gave my thoughts, many of which were here. We both feel this whole situation is a non-event, and I don’t think it gets as much play if it’s in-season.
**We broke down the first home Spring Training game yesterday, with talk on Jeff Locke and Andrew McCutchen stealing.
**I broke down the early results of minor league camp, pointing out the talented third base trio the Pirates had working out together at Pirate City the other day.
