Will the Pirates lose ever again?

Spring Training baseball is BACK and the vibes in Bradenton are DIFFERENT 👀🔥

In Episode 291 of Bucco Bantr, we break down all three spring training games as the Pittsburgh Pirates jump out to a 3-0 start — their first undefeated start through three games since 2019 spring training.

We dive into:
âš¾ The biggest takeaways from the opening weekend
âš¾ The energy and atmosphere around Bradenton
âš¾ Our favorite moments from the first three games
âš¾ Is Esmeryln Valdez for real?
âš¾ Can Termarr Johnson take the next step in 2026?

There’s a different feel around camp this year — confidence, competition, and legitimate depth. We break it all down and tell you what actually matters… and what doesn’t.

👇 WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU 👇
Is Valdez the real deal?
Is this the year Termarr breaks out?
