Board Vibe

Yeah come on guys. Cheerlead like Pmike. You're ruining the board!



Every thread is the same negativity. It's hard to read 2-3 new negative posts per day! That's just too much of an onslaught of negativity to enjoy.

The near-future of the franchise rests on five guys

<t>Well, filling in by trades is the main way of doing it, not signing FAs.   <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> You need a GM who can draft and develop and who doesn't lose trades as consistently as NH did. I'll give him credit, he was able to extract value from dumpster dives more than others. But the guy co...

March-April schedule brutal to start season...

Glad to see it's tough early. That will drive the attendence down right away.



The goal is to lose as many games as possible. Get the #1 draft pick. Embarrass Bob Nutting and fire up the locals.

Cherington says Pirates will spend when the time is right.

<t>Never understand why the media keeps asking this question to the GM and president.  <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Ask Nutting.   Drive up the mountain, walk over the drawbridge, past the guard dogs, climb the stairs of his castle keep,  and ask him.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Ask him if he plans to push pa...

Spring Training Thread

Bells been playing IF for years now. Nothing to do with adjusting, everything to do with the players inability to throw.

Good signing. Good defense and speed. We're going to stink this year. He will make the games shorter for the fans and pitching staff.

<t>Nobody likes freeloaders.   Nutting is a loser.  A freeloader.   Taking public ?. Taking Yankees and redsox ?, taking MLB BAM money.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Making hundreds of millions in gains off socialism, and not extending himself to try to win.  <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Nutting is a billionare...
