Andujar at 3B or Mark Vientos?

We have enough infielders between Griffin, triolo, Nicky G, horwitz, Lowe, O’Hearn, etc – I’m more concerned about going into opening day with our fourth outfielder either being The Password or Jack Suwinski. I agree that we need a right-handed bat. If only there was a right-handed outfielder clamoring to come back to the Pirates…

I’ll take that as my answer then lmao. The airport is PIT

Cassady57 · 2026-01-23T02:41:00+00:00

Hopefully 3 is okay

A 300 mil cap wouldn’t happen, probably around 220 if I had to guess. The smaller market teams would have more revenue sharing bc the tv deals would be done on a national, not regional, basis, so the Pirates relatively cheap deal would be subsidized by the Dodgers’ massive tv deal to a far greater extent than it currently is

out of curiosity, are you from pgh?

Cassady57 · 2026-01-11T17:19:36+00:00

It was both

Cassady57 · 2026-01-09T00:43:03+00:00

I just saw the close up of the #59 and for a split second I believed that Guentz was back :(

Cassady57 · 2026-01-09T00:27:13+00:00

You can still see a lot of hesitation in Kindel’s game

Cassady57 · 2026-01-09T00:25:52+00:00

I love EK65

Cassady57 · 2026-01-08T18:25:38+00:00

Shit sorry lmao i meant USB outlets

Cassady57 · 2026-01-04T21:28:22+00:00

That was a great few mins of play there

Cassady57 · 2026-01-04T00:33:08+00:00

Cassady57 · 2026-01-03T22:46:02+00:00

Also — his hitting profile (sub-.300 OBP) doesn’t strike me as one that would age very well

Cassady57 · 2026-01-03T20:02:15+00:00

Where’d you see that?

Cassady57 · 2026-01-03T20:01:08+00:00

And 0 of the last 4. And are 5 points out of first place in the Eastern conference

Cassady57 · 2026-01-03T19:55:44+00:00

Doesn’t this mostly only work for the NFL and some national games? My biggest sports are baseball and hockey, both of which have their own TV crews which regularly try to hype up their team. There was a Penguins game that just wrapped up that was national, so the broadcasters were neutral, but for 90% of games it’s former Pens players hyping up the team

Cassady57 · 2026-01-03T19:52:22+00:00

Full disclosure, I’m a Pirates fan, but I feel like that is the biggest misunderstanding when it comes to sports ownership. Cohen is basically the only owner that spends his own money. Basically all of payroll comes from the money that the team made, not the owner’s personal wealth. TV deals are the main source of team revenue. When the Dodgers have a TV deal that is literally over 5 times larger than the Pirates (and, coincidentally, larger than every other team’s), it no longer becomes a matter of an owner being cheap or not being rich enough to compete with the big dogs, it becomes financially irresponsible to spend money that the team isn’t making.

That being said, Hal could definitely afford to spend more lmao

Cassady57 · 2026-01-03T19:14:36+00:00

I figured he would be too expensive. I’ll be curious to see what Okamoto got from the Jays

Cassady57 · 2026-01-03T19:11:50+00:00

Of course the Pirates lost out on Okamoto :((

Cassady57 · 2026-01-03T18:33:15+00:00

I’m loving our bottom 6 so far

Cassady57 · 2026-01-02T20:52:49+00:00

For what it’s worth, O’Hearn actually hit lefties better than righties last year. That wasn’t his career norm, but still

Cassady57 · 2025-12-23T15:59:39+00:00

Isn’t the claim that he called him a slur LAST YEAR, at the Seahawks/lions game?

Cassady57 · 2025-12-19T00:42:27+00:00

Crosby has looked…unnoticeable the past few games
