On today's episode, host Ethan Smith discusses the Pirates decision to select INF/UTI Diego Castillo to the Opening Day roster in St. Louis and why rewarding him with the nod was the right decision after a strong Spring Training.

Also, over the weekend the Pittsburgh Pirates announced that JT Brubaker would make his first Opening Day start vs the Cardinals and the implications of that decision as well as who could follow him for the series.
