## Resource

The Pittsburgh Pirates are hot on the wild card chase, just 2.5 games out with plenty of time before the trade deadline—and GM Ben Cherington says don’t expect big moves anytime soon. With the MLB draft looming in two weeks, the focus is on staying calm until after that event. Cherington stressed urgency across the roster, demanding every player step up to keep momentum alive. Their next test? A four-game road series against the Phillies—and if they keep playing well, expect the front office to get active in adding talent before August 3rd.
