OT: Pirates Talk: Lets Play Ball

[GilbertSeinfeld]

Wonder what happened. Video wasn't very definitive. Looked like his wrist broke

According to reports, it was shoulder inflammation.

Well, glad he recognized it and tapped out

Yeah it looked weird but they said a shoulder muscle issue? I dont know, the training staff hasnt exactly earned my trust lately

 

[Fogel]

I think it Keller they trade for bats.
Ashcraft Burrows Harrington Solometo Reed are all potential 26 starters

Half of those are not having good starts this year so very premature.

 

[Pens1566]

And I remained determined to date Sydney Sweeney.

You can do better.

 

[cookthebooks]

be real

 

[GilbertSeinfeld]

be real

Hey, shut up!

 

[Pens1566]

Sweeney comes off as having the personality of a bowl of oatmeal. And she's either taking the same role over and over (dumb blonde), or she's a shitty actor.

On a campus like ... ASU(?), there's literally 100s of girls that are just as attractive. She's got great marketing.

 

[Coastal Kev]

Why would you sit Davis tonight for to subpar players that are both way past their prime??? Farts

*note to self*

Go to ASU campus.

Go to ASU campus.

Both the Arizona schools (U of A, Tucson) actually. But Tempe is way more famous for it. If I'd been at either one for undergrad, I'd have never graduated. Well, maybe a biology degree ...

Bart needs to be sat. Davis is actually coming on and he has single handedly lost us this game.

 

[wheelz87]

Actually kind of liking what I see of Horwitz thus far

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

5 runs!

 

[BusinessGoose]

Nothing like breaking that five run streak and still losing lol

So when do they just start planning for 26 and play the young guys. Pham Fraizer Cutch Ikf all are eating up playing time

There aren't many promising young guys. Clearly Canario should be playing every day over Pham. I have liked what I have seen of Davis over the last week, however effectively benching Cutch for him is a recipe for disaster given Davis's mental fragility. Frazier will be replaced by Gonzales in a week or so. IKF they will want to trade at the deadline and they have no one promising at short anyway.

Very disappointing that Yorke, Cook, Suwinski, and Endy look disappointing in AAA and aren't forcing hands. I am hoping Yorke gets hot and then finds his way up here.

IMO Hayes in particular needs to be replaced, ideally by Yorke or Gonzales. His bat is regressing but he could be sold as a defensive replacement if we ate half his salary or so. He doesn't even hit the ball hard any more. There is no world where he is an acceptable starting corner IF on a contending team in the next few years.

Horwitz is actually good, it just sucks that he didn’t start playing until 50 games into the year while the Pirates have a .333 winning%

Which young guys?

 

[BusinessGoose]

Which young guys?

*googles Indy's stats*

 

[bigdaddyk88]

Which young guys?

Anyone under 30. I know the indy guys aren’t showing any signs of earning any promotion but if we are going to be a AAAA might as well play the youth
