Neil Walker joins the show to break down the Pirates' recent managerial change and what fans can expect from Don Kelly as he steps into the role. We dive into clubhouse dynamics, the importance of leadership, and why trading Paul Skenes is a ridiculous conversation. Neil also shares a personal story about Donnie Kelly's early days dating his sister and reflects on the challenges the Pirates face both on the field and in building a sustainable core. If you're a Pirates fan looking for insight, perspective, and a little behind-the-scenes storytelling, this one's for you.
