Keller is on pace for over 18 wins. Looks like any and all pirates all stars will be coming from the rotation

One all star on this team - Bailey falter

I was with some trumpists out in the wild yesterday. One argument that stood out to me, apparently Trump is telling people that he refused to prosecute Clinton because it would be divisive. I said, that’s false, googled about Trump trying to prosecute clinton, immediately found an article about trum...

A deep dive on some position players in the low minors First, Siani got to AA after finally mastering A+ started terribly but it's heating up White is struggling. Cheng maintaining a little power (5hr) but striking out too much. Almost .800ops last 30 days though. Bowen struggling. Brannigan with p...

Blow the Paul Skenes lead pirates bullpen challenge

Alito and Thomas are really in an epic battle to prove which is the more pathetic partisan hack.

Beating Skrubal was going to be unlikely. Jones would have to match...and he will not.

Apparently Koch caught for Skenes at Indy, so could see him tomorrow

Base salary is higher for aiyuk (see that now).

So it’s just that he’s a better wide receiver than metcalf, that’s why he would cost more.

assets required to obtain him, not salary. the cap isn't real 2nd round pick I think i'd be down with that, last I read was like a first and then some SF holding out for a first is what I think kept an Aiyuk deal from happening. He's younger and cheaper. I don't think Metcalf is worth a first, and ...

YDLS was 2-2 yesterday with 2bb and 4 steals. Got up to .407avg. I didn't check today's yet. Must be good

Didn’t play today

assets required to obtain him, not salary. the cap isn't real

2nd round pick I think

Blanco getting better results is encouraging

SI (is that still a thing) quotes someone suggesting Metcalf for Pickens and 3 draft picks.

Lol

On the over the cap thing, it looks like he would cost 13mm this year. Which would match up pretty well with their current cap situation

New team of destiny, the complex league pirates.

Good analysis LL Shelty reported on the fan that Perez will go to the IL and Ke’Bryan hayes is going to be reactivated after another bout of vaginal soreness Edit: also some guy named grant koch replaced Joey Bart, who also went to the IL I think I read that Bart's IL is retroactive too. Guessing K...

I think ideally they would be able to get a WR going into his final year. But then of course that doesn't work, because you can't get Higgins or Aiyuk without some sort of extension (they are probably going to hold out). So i guess that's why Metcalf makes more sense. They get one more year to decid...

All good stuff.

Rotation just really good, some rather shocking production from
Jones and falter and keller meeting high expectations.

Everyone else basically sucks

¤ Suwinski (F) had a chance to become a big part of the organizion but swung and missed

A+

Watched the opportunity go by

DK metcalf?

Correct. With courtland Sutton being a backup option.

So basically, there will be a wr upgrade

Sounds like, by definition, it’s not a “red line” cause you’re debating it.

I'm not gonna watch that but did they rearrange the first letters of each restaurant to spell FAUCI or something stupid like that? I watched... it's just a list of franchise restaurants that are closing places. I don't get the text in the tweet, though: "What do you notice about this new list of re...

No more fuddruckers?

I hear the buzz around the organization is that a post-June 1 WR acquisition is in the works with Metcalf being the target. He's getting paid through next year, so that would seem to make sense. The WR room would not survive a Pickens injury, so I do think that they need to make a trade like that (a...

If I don't believe it yet, I guess I'm never going to believe that otherwise seemingly sane people read that ish and still want to vote for the guy, because "sanctity of life" or "Biden's policies are worse" or whatever. I feel like this is just the inevitability of politics and government. I don't...
