Do I need to put some type of covering on the pruned areas or will they be ok with open air?

Best off with open air. Research shows that paints/waxes/etc on pruning cuts are more apt to seal pathogen spores IN than to keep them out.

Good luck with the Blue Boy, hope it comes back for you! :)

I would soak them in some root hormone to give them a boost (Or crushed aspirin) and then transplant. That way give them a kick on the way to recovery.

I hope at least one comes back for ya... ya got a fighting chance!

So the one that I thought would attempt to make it was transplanted last week. Should it still be a bunch of sticks or should something be happening?

Patience, patience!! Think about something else for awhile, water every few days, and be surprised when you see new growth! Don't give up!
