Yeah, they hired a new analytics staff. How can they not be in first place?

Don't understand how it works with a stadium lease but I think Pirates expire in 2030 at PNC. I do believe the Pirates will get sold and moved out of the Burgh. I'm just wondering if they are forced to stay until 2030 even if sold?? It's just going to be a crap show until then anyhow.

Yeah, because we all know how well those analytic guys can hit, throw, field and pitch.

When Nutting said he has given the team all the resources they need, he probably meant pencils and pocket protectors.

I laughed and laughed, but then I cried.
