The Pirates dropped another series at PNC Park, and we're breaking down everything that went wrong—and what still gives us hope heading into the All-Star break.

In this live episode of Bucco Bantr, we recap the frustrating series loss to the Braves, dive into the bullpen's continued struggles, and take a hard look at the current state of the team. Is this just a rough stretch, or are there deeper issues that need to be addressed? We discuss where the Pirates stand, what has to improve over the final few games before the break, and what the organization should be focused on moving forward.

We also preview this weekend's matchup against the Brewers, highlighting the pitching matchups and where the Pirates may be able to find an edge in an important divisional series.
