North Shore Drive podcast - Pittsburgh Steelers, Pirates, Penguins and more

On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey reacts to the Pirates' weekend series against the New York Mets and the announcement of MLB All-Star selections. Does Paul Skenes deserve to start the game despite only pitching in 10 games so far as a rookie? Did the Pirates deserve any any additional All-Stars beyond Skenes and Bryan Reynolds? And is the rotation prepared to weather injuries to Jared Jones and Bailey Falter with depth options like Luis Ortiz, Martin Perez and Marco Gonzales? Jason tackles those topics then gets into the Penguins. He recaps his exclusive interview with Mike Sullivan over the weekend, the need for GM Kyle Dubas to make the roster younger and faster and his level of faith in goalie Tristan Jarry.
