On his weekly mailbag podcast, Post-Gazette Pirates insider Noah Hiles answers reader questions. Among them: Will owner Bob Nutting consider selling the team after its slow start to 2025 and amid relentless scrutiny from fans? Are Billy Cook and Nick Yorke MLB caliber players? Or just more bad trade returns for GM Ben Cherington? Will 2024 first-round MLB draft pick Konnor Griffin be promoted more quickly through the minor league system as a result of his early success? Should Cherington trade from his pitching surplus with names like Mitch Keller, Bubba Chandler and Hunter Barco to acquire more capable bats for his lineup? Will Matt Gorski, Henry Davis and Liover Peguero ever get regular MLB playing time?
