  • Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Chicago Cubs – Game 3

    April 4, 2013 Respond

    Last night was a good night to be a Pirates fan.  Two hits! Shutout!  Scoring more than a run!  Frankly I can’t think of too many awful things from last night. As you guys know, when a Pirates fan has very few awful things to talk about it was a good game. One awful thing…

  • Pirates Cut Six, Including Cole

    March 18, 2013 Respond

    I’ve been waiting patiently for this day.  Waiting to see the outrage, the irrational hate that the Pirates would receive after cutting Gerrit Cole. I was kind of disappointed.  Sure there have been rumblings.  There has been some disappointment.  Overall though?  Genuine understanding. It reminds me of that scene from classic comedy movie Major Payne.…

    Good news for Neal Huntington, five of his guys have made Baseball America’s Top 1oo prospect list. The Pirates are represented by: 7. Gerrit Cole 19. Jameson Taillon 51. Gregory Polanco 61. Alen Hanson 78. Luis Heredia Not bad at all for a system that some still claim is mostly devoid of talent.  Without Josh…

  • Pirates Sign Hawpe, Invite Him and Three Others To Spring Training

    January 17, 2013 3

    In what is a pretty clear trend the Pirates have brought on yet another Clint Hurdle guy, this time it’s Brad Hawpe.  You’ll remember before the 2011 season they signed Garrett Atkins and invited him to Spring Training as well.  This is basically the exact same signing, and will likely have the exact same result.…

  • 2013 Top Twenty Prospects

    November 19, 2012 Respond

    1. Gerrit Cole, RHP – Everyone knows all about Cole.  Good results, knocking on the door.  Just a matter of time before we get to see his Ace potential in Pittsburgh, possibly this season. 2. Alen Hanson, SS – Building quite the resume.  Very Young.  Still very raw.  Much of his ranking is dependent on…

  • Mark Appel Turns Down Buccos

    July 13, 2012 Respond

    According to about a million reports on the web Pirates first round pick Mark Appel will be returning to Stanford for his senior year. What does this mean?  First off it means the Pirates will have two first round picks next year.  Next year’s draft is regarded as a deeper draft than this year’s.  That…

  • Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Houston Astros – Game 80

    July 3, 2012 1

    Alright.  So the Pirates eeked one out last night, huh?  What’s with this team?   The Pirates aren’t just beating teams, they are dominating them. Mellie’s recap. Also from last night/early morning, our rich benefactor Brad made the trip to Birmingham to see Gerrit Cole pitch.  He posted a few videos. Check em out here.…
