I have been traveling and didn't notice on MLB Trade Rumors that the Pirates added anyone to 40 man or make any other moves. Is that correct?

Would love to see Santander come to the Bucs. A power hitting switch-hitter, he would fit nicely in the middle of the order. Not necessarily a high average guy, but that power is sorely needed. He's an average outfielder at best, but it can't be any worse than having De La Cruz out there. Staying w...

The Bucs kicked off the annual "Acquire a utility infielder season" by claiming Tristan Gray when the A's waived him. Gray has a career .238 BA in AAA with nearly 1,600 ABs. He's only had 33 ABs in the majors but flirted with the .160 benchmark, hitting a hard .152. He's shown power in th...

Yay. A new analytics guy. Just what they need.

this one's the ticket!

IO am wondering what Nutting will do in 2030 when the PNC Lease runs out' Do I hear Charlotte calling? You can bet he’ll hold the proverbial gun to the heads of the authorities to extract all sorts of concessions from what ultimately will be us, the taxpayers. Among them will be the threat to move....

intersting, thanks for post

maybe he is talking about other teams' hitters. Now that he knows what they do he is going to teach Pirate hitters.

I may start using the cone of silence next time Ben talks.

Mackey had a good take on Cherington's statements in today's column - https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/jason-mackey/2024/10/03/jason-mackey-pirates-ben-cherington-confusing-comments-hitting-shelton-nutting/stories/202410030081 Quite the word salad, but this was my favorite quote: "Payroll i...
