We don't know the context there. Is Taylor hurt? It's also a tough thing. I'm criticizing Shelton for taking Jack out more than I would like. Well, you ain't benching Reynolds, and Olivares has been really good. Something has to give. You normally don't bench a guy 3 in a row unless he's battling something.

Jason, I am slowly but surely progressing along the surefire HOFer path, despite my clueless critics, correct?
Jason Mackey
12:56
You're absolutely a HOFer for me, Tanger. I don't think there's any question. Take the good with the bad. Not too much different than Karlsson. I wish you had a different partner, more of Dumo in his prime.

Should the Pirates just have Chapman be closer until Bednar finds his command? I would say hell yeah.
Jason Mackey

Yes. Said this earlier. A little surprised -- actually a lot surprised -- Derek Shelton isn't going this route. I thought that's why you signed Chapman? And what if it goes wrong again?

If you could have your dream foursome in the Masters who would it be?

Oh, man. Does it have to be golf-related? I think I'd go with my dad, Jerry Garcia and my wife. If I have to take a golfer, I don't know who I'd choose. Guess I'd have to say Arnold Palmer, right?

Are you religious? If so what religious affiliation?
Jason Mackey
1:02
We go to church, yes. That works for us. If it doesn't for you ... to each their own. This also isn't a political or religious space, so I'm not gonna discuss any of it more than this. My reasoning is simple, too: I want all to feel welcomed, and I'm not turning away readership from one side or the other. I'm too competitive. :-)

OK, folks. That does it for this week. Thanks so much. A lot of baseball. Hopefully we can expand that along with the role. Enjoy the (busy) weekend and talk to yinz next week!
