Live from Bradenton, Jim and Doug kick off Bucco Brew with a spring-training check-in and a deep dive into the Pirates’ fringe-roster race — headlined by Jhostynxon Garcia (aka “The Password”) and what his path to the big-league roster could look like.

They break down what stood out in his first look (approach, hard contact, defense, and where he fits), plus rapid-fire thoughts on other bubble names like Nick Yorke, Enmanuel Valdez, Endy Rodriguez, and Esmerlyn Valdez — and why Spring Training reps matter for these guys.

We’re live from LECOM Park on home game days, with daily recaps, interviews, and more.
