Pirates Power Rankings: Slow and Steady to the Deadline?
The Pirates held their position in the developing National League Wild Card race this week, taking a series against their division rival St. Louis Cardinals before losing two of three against the Diamondbacks. Both series posed crucial for Pittsburgh, as both St. Louis and Arizona sit immediately ahead of them in the standings. As has been the case all year, though, the Buccos didn’t deviate one way or another in the quagmire of a playoff field, playing to a .500 record on the week. Without dramatic movement up or down the standings, most power rankings suggested that the Pirates should keep...

Fittipaldo: Undrafted Rookie CB Beanie Bishop Jr. ‘Doesn’t Look Out Of Place’ At Slot Corner
When Cameron Sutton signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers during the spring practice portion of the offseason, the hope was that he would alleviate the large question the team had at slot corner, but it was back to the drawing board when Sutton was handed an eight-game suspension by the NFL for violating the personal conduct policy. Through four training camp practices, however, it looks like the Steelers may have found something with undrafted rookie CB Beanie Bishop Jr.
Steelers Safety And Former Ravens DB DeShon Elliott Says Pittsburgh 'Feels Like Home'
The Pittsburgh Steelers' safety depth was decimated last season due to injuries. General Manager Omar Khan made a point of adding to the position room this offseason to make sure that the team doesn't have to deal with issues at safety again in 2024. While DeShon Elliott wasn't the flashiest signing, he's a hard-hitting safety that understands AFC North football and should fit in perfectly with Pittsburgh's defense. Elliott, Damontae Kazee and Minkah Fitzpatrick all offer unique skill sets at the safety position, but they all have one thing in common: they like to hit. Pittsburgh's secondary hasn't exactly been great...

Steelers’ Patrick Queen makes awkward T.J. Watt admission
Patrick Queen made a big decision in the offseason, leaving the Ravens and joining the Pittsburgh Steelers. And his role could lift an already good defense to a new level. But Queen made an awkward T.J. Watt admission to Dan Graziano of espn.com. Queen, who signed a three-year, $41 million...

The dark deportation albatross brooding above a Trump win | HUDSON
Two weeks before shots rang out in Butler, Pennsylvania, I received a solicitation from the Trump campaign headlined “I NEED YOU ON MY WAR COUNCIL!” If you are wondering why the campaign would waste time and money soliciting a Democrat, I should confess I subscribe to several conservative publications in the interest of remaining current with right-wing perspectives. These subscriptions hint I might be a Republican fundraising prospect. All sorts of appeals for campaign donations tumble into both my snail mailbox and my email — usually from Democrats. You learn a lot about the temperature of American politics from receiving the messages partisan direct-mail mavens believe might hook you.

Steelers Training Camp Takeaways: OL Takes a Hike, Fields Any Closer to QB1?
UNITY TWP., Pa. — When Mike Tomlin talks about veterans during Pittsburgh Steelers training camp, he often emphasizes that he doesn’t necessarily want his older players getting a lot of reps, in part because he wants to take it easy on the bodies of older players, but also in larger part, because he wants to see what the younger guys have to offer.
