They were picked last due to the actions of your boy Neal




Followed by two years of dumping the few talented guys we had for little that would increase 2020 or 202q wins. Probably, 2022, too.

Bob gets a pass for last year with Covid etc. You must understand Weenie Boy that Neal screwed things up to point that Bob had no choice. Wouldn't it be nice to have Meadows in LF rather than Evans? Most people have said that Bob pulled off a good one getting Park for a below average Holmes.

Pirates are now 3-4 in the last 60 with 53 to go.



Will they equal, be better, or be worse than 19-41?

Pirates are currently at 41 wins. If they reach 52 wins, they will have improved on last season. Any wins above 52 is a greater improvement.



How has anything been mailed in? You don't think they will win 11 more games?

Lloyd's champagne was for the embarrassingly low bar accomplishment of not losing 90. (They lost 89 and didn't make up a rainout.) They're gonna have to lower the bar a lot more to celebrate this year. Maybe they can pop the corks tomorrow if they get thru the 2nd inning trialing by fewer than 7.

Among the great philospher, Shed's, infamous expressions was/is "If you set the bar low enough, just about everyone can step over it. Including BOB/The Bucs/any player (especially the reigning LMG-Of-The-Week.)"
