Against a guy throwing 77% strikes.

Just thinking out loud... The Pirates could become a really good team with all the young talent they have. They just need an owner who would keep the young core together instead of letting them all walk thr first chance they get.

Yep. Just makes the pitcher's job easier.

Hopefully we have that kind of owner.

We'll regret not getting OHearn in from third with none out..

Pitt has a fun team to watch.

Cruz did that when I went to the game in summer 2022 against Pirates. Ball landed right in the bullpen back then. This guy swings for the fence.

Gunnar needs to field that if he can get to it.

The Pirates are my answer when someone says, “Oh the Os are only good because they had so many top picks while they were tanking.”  You gotta draft well and know how to develop the talent.

Your point about us not giving them all away is something I’d left out of that equation, definitely a factor as well.

I provided my source.

Anyway the numbers are close enough to each other that it doesn't make any difference.

Friend, I wasn't nitpicking or criticizing.  Just speculating as to why we posted different figures at the same time, that's all.

I think the owner started to give in and got Keller, Reynolds and Hayes on some affordable deals.  Hopefully, the Orioles will do the same.

There we go Mounty! Let’s get some runs here.

I wonder if @Pickles would say if that was a good swing decision. 

Ha.  Missed it.  Just tuned in.

[Mooreisbetter27]

Come on Mullins. Need to start hitting.

I didn't take it that way, I was just stating that I showed where I pulled my data from.

I certainly didn't the work myself.

I used the 2010-2015 chart.
