I used to enjoy watching them when they were competitive. Unfortunately, this thread will have a short life. LOL

Hey were undefeated in spring training

Unfortunately I think the Pirates are going to extend there consecutive losing season streak.

Clemaz · April 8, 2009 2:23PM

I know it's early, but a couple of nice wins over the Cardinals.

Morgoth · April 9, 2009 9:09AM

Hey we almost got no hit and won today

Morgoth · April 13, 2009 12:36PM

Zach Duke must be healthy or sold his soul. Could he be the Cliff Lee of 2009?

Well we crawled back out from under the rock we placed on ourselves. We really need one or two of these younger guys to establish themselves. Young, Morgan, Andy Laroche or Brandon Moss one will have to become the next McLouth before we can think about .500. The pitching has been OK but I am still not convinced yet but Duke, Maholm and Ohlendorf have been pretty consistent.

I almost feel like we stole McClouth.
I hope Morton and Gorky's work out well and can develope into fine players for you. I know nothing much about Locke so i wont comment on him.

Cubby · June 4, 2009 9:52AM

Yes sir the Pirates have an excellent closer.

Cubby · June 4, 2009 9:55AM

And McCutcheon finally called up.

I think the Bucs need to take it one step at a time and go for a winning season first. They haven't done that since their three-peat division champ days of 1990-92.

Okay... did I wake up and it is 1972 again? Or whenever the Pirates played inthe series last?

<< <i>Okay... did I wake up and it is 1972 again? Or whenever the Pirates played inthe series last? >>

1979.

The Steelers, now the Penguins -- the Pirates have their work cut out for them!

Estil · June 14, 2009 11:03AM

Stranger things have happened, just ask the Devil Rays as well as our (well, not mine I went to Daviess County but still) local Owensboro High School baseball team who entered the postseason with a less than .500 record and made it to State Runner-Up.

The difference is that the Rays were making good use of their high draft picks, signing their stars early (like they did with Longoria) and they were actually trying to win games.
