The Pirates and Cubs split a hard-fought series at PNC Park, but the biggest story might be what’s happening on the pitching staff. We break down the bullpen issues that continue to haunt the Pirates, discuss where things stand heading into June, and dive into the long-awaited return of Jared Jones. How will the Pirates manage the rotation and bullpen moving forward? Which arms could see their roles change?

Plus, we preview this weekend’s matchup against the Minnesota Twins, including key pitching matchups, players to watch, and what Pittsburgh needs to do to keep building momentum. Tune in for all that and more on the latest episode of Bucco Bantr.
