Cherington better get one of those electrical muscle stimulators to get some circulation going in his legs and arms.
Had Cherington signed Sam Williams, a player you rate among the worst available, would you have given him kudos or would you have been critical?
_______
I would have scored him a 1 and given kudos to Cherington for doing something/anything.

That would be #8!
Here are the top 11 excuses and alibis for not acquiring a player.
1. He is an aging veteran on the decline.
2. He is too injury prone.
3. Acquiring him would bring us no closer to a championship.
4. He would never sign to play in Pittsburgh.
5. He would be a clubhouse cancer.
6. Acquiring him would upset the team chemistry.
7. Signing him would lose financial flexibility for a 1 year player.
8.We already have players just as good as him.
9. We are not the Red Sox or Yankees and they would outbid us.
10.He would block this LMG or that LMG from development.
!!. His hands are tied because of Covid.

No, not "as good" as Williams. They're "as bad" as Williams. Why would we want more players like that? I thought you wanted better players than what the Pirates currently have? You're really confusing.

just for the record, it is Sam McWilliams. Surprised Weenie didn't jump on that. Regardless, he still gets a 1.Contract was for one year at $750,000. That's Bob's kind of deal

McWilliams has no MLB experience but did compile a nifty 8.18 ERA in 2019 with a staggering 72 hits in 44 innings for a WHIP of 2.023. His $750,000 is more than the minimum. After that signing, I'm guessing there are some Mets fans wishing their GM could be more like Cherington.

Somebody on Twitter just pointed out that if the Steelers run the table and go undefeated they'll finish the season with the same number of wins as the Pirates.

Steelers?
The way things are shaping up- which is to say not at all- Pitt football will have as many wins as the Pirates will next year.
