For some reason 3, Strzelecki doesn't give me a warm fuzzy feeling

[Bobster]

Strzelecki is BP fodder. He was DFA'd by Cleveland. If he makes the team, he'll probably be the last guy in the BP.

All teams make these minor moves in the offseason. The problem with the Pirates is that these minor moves are the only moves they make. So we tend to scrutinize them more than we would if other, more significant moves were made.

Right now I think the current 40 man roster is weaker than the roster on September 1, 2024. Ben has his work cut out for him.

Or, is Ben doing the work his boss wants him to do? There can’t be year upon year of constant failure and it not be fair to at least ask that question.
