Pirates when Suwinski doesn't start: 19-28
We turned our back on Him and we've accepted evil into the clubhouse
For shame.
Sources are telling me Nick Gonzales has been called up to the Pittsburgh Pirates. In order to make room on the roster, Paul Skenes has been sent down to AAA Indianapolis

Tough day for the NL Central. Every team lost today, except for THE PITTSBURGH PIRATES WHO ARE TWO AND A HALF GAMES OUT OF FIRST PLACE AT THE ALL STAR BREAK!
The Cardinals' 10-19 start is the worst in franchise history since 1973.
@Ken_Rosenthal
gives insight into whether St. Louis can turn this season around.
Outfielder Jarrod Dyson and the Pittsburgh Pirates are in agreement on a one-year major league deal, sources tell ESPN. Dyson will take a physical today, and if all goes as expected the deal will be official and they'll have their center fielder to replaced Starling Marte.
If the Pirates win the series against Tampa Bay we are seriously looking at an insane World Series run and if we lose the series we need to start looking to trade our good players for prospects before this becomes a totally lost season
Sources say Bryan Reynolds broke his hamate bone after Henry Davis intentionally hit him with his car. Henry Davis is in police custody. Mitch Keller has left the team as a form of protest against the violence displayed in the parking lot. Austin Hedges will start in LF tonight.
Billy, this is Domingo German.
He’s a horrible person that is almost an equally bad pitcher. Not really any silver linings to think of here.
His defect is that he is Domingo German
Breaking News: According to my sources, the

án from Indianapolis to MLB. Germán has not pitched in the Major Leagues since July 31, 2023 and may make his first start of this season tomorrow against the Dodgers.

I’m just getting this out of the way early…
My heart is going to be absolutely broken as soon as I hear Manfred announce the shitty, god awful Pirates organization has taken Dylan Crews with the
#1
overall pick
I’m not sure I’ve seen a bat this good in a long time. Crews is
NEW: Stadium ushers, ticket takers, and ticket sellers at PNC Park have announced they're now on strike and plan to picket outside the Pirates' next home game.
New renderings for the massive $600 million "Esplanade" on the North Shore show plans for a Ferris wheel, swimming pool and marina. The developer is preparing to take the plans to the city for approval in hopes of breaking ground this fall. MORE:
You’re offered $5 million to attempt to catch 10 throws at first base from Pedro Alvarez. You need to catch at least 8.
If you fail, you won't be able to hear music ever again.
Would you try it?
"Wasn't trying to hurt him by any means. But I was trying to go in hard like their guy did. He should have got out of the way I guess." - Musgrove on the slide at 2nd
Craig Kimbrel has given up 5 earned runs in 2 games (1.2 IP) against the Pirates during this series.
Felipe Vazquez has given up 4 earned runs in 26 games (24.2 IP) against the Cubs in his career as a member of the Pirates.
The Washington Nationals are paying $75,738,896 to their
#1
and
#2
starting pitchers this year.
The Pittsburgh Pirates have an (estimated) $75,463,007 payroll entering the regular season.
People are so outraged about the Pirates payroll but fail to realize the last time this team won a World Series - they did it with a $4,296,292 payroll.
We waited for Henry Davis to be promoted because his catching defense needed work.
Today they say he will catch very little this season. RF/DH for the vast majority of the season.
Which means there was, shocker, no reason to keep Henry Davis down this year. Bat was ready.

GM Cherington said for right now nothing has changed w Endy Rodriguez remaining as the AAA catcher & Henry Davis as the AA catcher. 'It's in the best interest of the Pirates & the players to be the primary catchers right now where they are'. Admitted that could change
Bob Nutting became the principal owner in 2007
His first three years as owner the opening day payroll averaged $45.6M
The last three years the opening day payroll averaged $58.1
That's less than a 2% annual increase
The 'economic landscape' is a red herring
UNPOPULAR PITTSBURGH OPINION:
Marte isn't a liability. A grown ass person (who is one of the most valuable Pirate players) averaging 3+ WAR a season is good as hell.
As President of the Pittsburgh Pirates I would:
1) Ban woo'ing
2) Build a Jaso statue that is in the form of a buoy
3) Not allow trading of good players for bad players
4) Win 10 World Series Championships
@Pirates
please consider this my formal application.
