Pirates Shifting Focus As Regular Season Approaches, Says Joe Block

With under two weeks until the beginning of the regular season, the Pittsburgh Pirates–at least the ones who will be the Pittsburgh Pirates come April 1–are shifting focus toward playing like it counts.

Joe Block, who will be calling those regular season games, joined Matt Drzik to discuss how the Bucs plan on finalizing their pitching rotation and “locking down” their offensive and defensive play with regularity. Block also talked about how the days off in Florida are a nice change of pace from the everyday grind.

Joe Block Says Pitching Won’t Be As “Traditional” In 2021

After a long delay and a shortened season in 2020, should baseball fans expect the sport to return to normal with a full 162-game schedule?

According to Joe Block, the answer is no.

The Pirates broadcaster joined Matt Drzik on A.M. Beaver County to talk about how the Pirates starters, while playing relatively well in Grapefruit League action, will see a diminished role as far as innings pitched. Block sees that as a trend that will happen throughout the season due to last year’s rearranged schedule, and that it may open up a new level of competition throughout the MLB.
