Official Game Thread - 5/26 - Bucs @ Mariners

<t>Nice to win a game in which your starting pitcher was not lights out. Also good to see nearly everyone contribute on the offense. If your an M's fan, you would swear that they just faced the Rangers or the Rays, and not the power-starved Pirates.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Going into this season most...

Official Griping About Announcers Thread

<t>Couple of Comments:<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> I don't like the Michael McKenry segments. Whenever they occur, they become the focus and not the game on the field. <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> I am not a fan of Rabelo as the 3rd base coach, and have frequently voiced my criticism on this Board. During yes...

The Future . . .

<t>We are the Pirates. This team will never sign a high priced free agent from another team to a long term contract. As noted earlier in this thread, the Pirates will have to do it through the draft, astute trades, player development, and making good decisions on when to sign their own players to ex...

Official Game Thread - 5/3 - Bucs @ Rays

<t>Last night's game was painful to watch. The defense was abysmal. Exactly what was Andujar doing on that fly ball?<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Tropicana Field or whatever they now call this excuse for a major league ballpark should be condemned. I am not offering an excuse for the number of botched pla...

Some thoughts after great first month…

<t>First, talking about winning sure is a lot more fun than talking about losing. <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> I don't doubt that there is some danger and heartbreak ahead, because few teams, particularly one that lost 100 games the previous season, can sustain a pace of winning 2 of every 3. <br/> <br/>...

Game thread April 27 vs LA

<t>So, Hernandez doesn't pitch for 9 games or so but then pitches twice against the Dodgers. Great results so far, particularly for a Rule 5 pick. Perhaps the Dodgers made a mistake in failing to protect him.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> You know the team wanted to close this one out and take the series w...

Time to own the Dodgers again

The Pirates were a bad team in 2022, but they had a 5 - 1 record against the Dodgers. Lots of justifiable skepticism regarding the team's 16 - 7 start. One way to help erase such is to again own the Dodgers.



Go Bucs. Looking forward to tonight's game and this series.

Reynolds Extended

Reynolds and Bucs agree to an 8 year deal with no opt outs. Encouraging move.

Official Game Thread - April 21, 2023 - Bucs vs Reds

<t>I believe that this is the first time Keller has had a winning record in his time with the Bucs.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Reynolds is average at best in CF, but he is a plus left fielder.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Gotta hope that Hill continues to get outs tomorrow night, even though none of his pitch...
