Pittsburgh Pirates

Okay, before anyone blasts me for making this thread. I honestly looked thru as many pages as I could stand for the old one. Besides, Free said we could talk about the Pirates once the new season rolled around and it’s not far off.

 

Does anyone think, besides me, that the Pirates have a chance of finishing out of the basement in their division this year? They’ve got some good young talent on the field now. All we need is for the pitching staff to have a good year. A lot of the players are thinking this could be a good year for the team.

 

Am I also the only one who thinks it’s time for them to give up on the Brandon “I play like my name” Moss experiment? For Pete Sake, he’s batting .063 in spring training. He’s 2 for 32. There are pitchers on the team with higher batting averages. This guy has been a complete disaster since coming to the Pirates. The best thing he could do for the team is to just admit he sux and walk away. I doubt there’s another GM out there that is dumb enough to take him in a trade. If I was the Pirates, I’d pay another team to take him off my hands. I’m sure the Pirates would accept a couple dozen bats for him in the way of a trade.

 

Please don’t give answers like; Until they quit trading away their good players…blah blah blah…that’s obvious. Not team can win if they keep trading away their best players.
