Jason doesn't think the Pirates were making a point by taking out Paul Skenes with 4.2 innings and not let him pitch out of the fifth inning. Jason thinks the Pirates need to take 5/6 or sweep to actually be able to discuss a chance the Pirates could make the playoffs. Ryan O'Hearn could even return. Jason doesn't think that people should use injuries as an excuse for the fact the Pirates are below .500 and way out of the playoffs.
