What Move do the Pirates need to make?

Didn't say I approved.



I'd rather see BOB taken out by a guy he DUMPED. ;)



I just said that SHED would like it. ;)



BOB used to sit down there, but he got tired of SHED hitting him up for free lunches and parking spaces.



So, now, BOB sits way up there where he can't be bothered.

I suggest that you get a better understanding of the English language. If you meant the shed would like it then that is what you should have said in the first place. The way you implied shed's approval came over as you approving what I said as well. I would like to know who is your ghostwriter for your posts? ;) ;)

I was being facetious.

We need to get focused in this thread, too much banter and not enough ideas.  :-/



I think Ben C is working on something Big !



He doesn`t plan to tank this season and needs to field a team fans want to watch .



Maybe trade a guy like Cruz for a young MLB ready player . I think the Cruz hype is just that Hype. Kid hasn`t done anything . 



The guy knows what he is doing.

you could be right (especially about knowing what he is doing). But it does seem like a good season to tank. He is not going to be able to make moves to make the team a contender. Hayes and maybe a couple pitchers are the only possibilities to make the team from the farm system. Barring getting 3 aces from Kuhl, Taillon, Keller, Brubaker, Crowe, Brault and a couple of lights out relievers this team isn't going anywhere.

Exactly. The roster's filled with guys who managed to only win one out of every three games. Yet some are whining that BC's dumping guys. I've stopped trying to make sense out of that.

Because the guys they get won't even play. We'll be lucky to win one out if every four. Great thinking there.

if they win one out of every four, and assuming they play 162 games, we are looking at 41-121. Not very promising. :'(

As things stand at this moment, I'd take one of four before I'd take one of three.



Our only saving grace is that we're in the NL- Central division. Otherwise, it would be a sure thing.
