What exactly does cash consideration mean?
They used to say a player was sold to another team. Now they say he was traded for cash considerations. It just means the Pirates received money.
Why don't they say how much money?

Re: Official Game Thread - 5/16 - Bucs @ Cubs

Raise It- good pitching tonight. concerning Suwinski, there was no reason to start him against a Lefty. It's almost like Shelton set him up to fail. Cutch should have started. Brownie said that Cutch probably didn't start because he was 2-17 lifetime against Steele. So he goes with Suwinski who look...

Re: Fleming DFA'd.

https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/05/pirates-trade-roansy-contreras-angels.html Do you think we really have to concern ourselves with Sept? I sure would like to be able for that to happen, but logic tells me no. Especially if we still have a certain Fat Ass at 1st Base and Hayes is still dealing ...

Re: Game thread 5/15

I have a question. The Bucs have a First Baseman ( Lamb) who is leading the
AAA in hitting. What does a guy have to do to be brought up. Is he on the Roster?

Re: Game thread 5/15

That's the difference between a team that's trying to win and a team that's trying to maximize profits. Topnotch slugging 1Bmen are very expensive and that eliminates them from consideration. So there's a model that Cherington looks for in first basemen. And it has to be a model that is not in high...

The Brewers had no problem letting him move on.
Ecbuc-Guess only Cherington can answer that one.

Re: Game thread 5/15

Zip, zap, kazoo. The Pirates played like poo. It's getting old Bobster, very old. I know we have heard this many times before but Pirate fans deserve better. The bucs throw us a bone once in a while but unfortunately most of us know it's only temporary. I believe I said this last year. No matter ho...

Bobster wrote: Wed May 15, 2024 6:26 pm This is the 3rd poor start in a row for Perez. And 5 of his last 6 have not been very good. I think it's concerning because last year he started out pitching well for Texas but was moved to the bullpen in August after struggling consistently in July.
And he was playing for a good team!!
