Re: Off Season Roster Discussion

Hudson may have been worth taking a shot on at his age. As for Stallings, I’d have given him a pass. His time has past. I agree Hudson would have been worth a shot. From reading some comments from today’s PirateFest it seems like the Pirates are still working on adding to the team prior to ST. They...

Re: Off Season Roster Discussion

Listening to DK Sports Daily Shot of the Pirates DK was throwing out the name of Domingo German formerly of the Yankees. He says that German has a bunch of skeletons in his closet due to alcohol problems and that is the reason the Yankees let him go. What do you guys think about signing German as a...

Re: Off Season Roster Discussion

They just signed Michael Plassmyer to a minor league deal. Bucs sign Plassmeyer Looks like GMBC is dipping into the outhouse for arms. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Thank goodness!

Re: Official Minor League Thread

We cannot sign top of the line free agents because we have an owner who provides our GM with a budget that is not competitive with other MLB teams. You are aware of that as well as myself, and as longtime Pirates fans we have to accept, but not agree as to how our owner operates this franchise. I a...

Re: Official Minor League Thread

Wilton Guerrero Jr appears not to be able to sign during the upcoming signing period for International Free Agents. I may be mistaken, but I thought I saw that he would be eligible in 2025. According to reports earlier this year the Pirates are supposed to sign Bralyn Brazoban during this year’s In...

Re: Off Season Roster Discussion

Happy New Year, everyone! I believe the Pirates will be better in '24 for these three reasons: O'Neil Cruz will be with the club for the entire season; the youngsters who received a lot of playing time last year will show marked improvement (especially Henry Davis and Nick Gonzales); and Roansy Cont...
