Salt Lake has put together a solid ownership group who is courting to be the next option in the West when the league expands to 32 teams - the commissioner has said it will be one team in the East and one in the West (Nashville seems to be a shoe-in for the East). It seems to be between us and Portl...

KDKA TV had another segment on the news regarding the paver bricks that were removed this offseason in order to replace the sidewalks at PNC Park. I bought a brick for my family prior to the building at the ballpark. It was located at the Home Plate Entrance, and at times when I attended a game I w...

86-76 682 runs.

Starting pitching and bullpen depth at MLB and AAA pay off. Offensive is thin but Hayes remains healthy all year to help get us to the playoffs (fingers crossed and prayers offered for this one!).

Bae with a really nice ST so far. New, more upright batting stance seems to be paying off for him. Obviously headed back to AAA for more innings in CF as he learns to play it better, but he will probably see some MLB time this year and hopefully he can finally make it more successful than in the past.

Thought we'd be on this list, but I guess it shows we have company for the worst offseason:

The Pirates are signing Andrew Heaney on a Major League Contract of 5 million plus incentives. While I admit a team never has enough major league pitching, this season is a perfect time to introduce the younger pitchers (Ashcraft, Chandler, Burrows, and/or Harrington) to the major leagues in prepar...

Ramon Laueano who I considered a possible corner outfielder has signed with the Orioles for 4 million dollars. I guess too expensive for the Pirates. I'm surprised as they have already signed Dylan Carlson and Tyler O'Neill this off season and have Cowser and Mullins back who were really solid last...

Well, this is a longshot. But, hear me out. There hasn't been much turnover at all, mostly replacing a bit piece with a bit piece. I don't have the time to hunt down every possible interview I've seen a clip of or blurb I heard on the radio. Primarily, it was Skenes, Cutch, and Jones that I recall ...

Oviedo has to prove himself after Tommy John. In all the guesswork articles that keep the winter months active with baseball stuff, I continue to be amazed at how Mike Burrows is completely forgotten. I think it was significant that he got the September call up even though it was just for a few inn...

All praise for Hague as new hitting coach and no one thinks he told the brass that Horwitz was a guy to look at closely. He was a 24th rounder out of some small college I have never heard of and climbed through the minors as a severe non-prospect to the tune of 307/.413/.471. Then he gets a first re...
