The Pirates MUST Fix Their Bullpen Before the Trade Deadline

The Pirates’ bullpen suffered its 23rd loss of the season Thursday night, leaving the team with more bullpen losses than saves. Alex Stumpf explains why the problem goes beyond one Gregory Soto blown save and why Pittsburgh desperately needs an established late-inning reliever before Monday’s trade deadline. Could Kansas City left-hander Daniel Lynch IV be an option? Alex discusses the recent scouting connection between the Pirates and Royals, additional relievers Pittsburgh could target and why this season presents an opportunity Ben Cherington cannot afford to waste.
