If they get Valdez that should complete the rotation and if they could trade for a 3rd baseman like a bohm barger baty vientos and Rafael Flores should be our opening day starter at catcher and griffin will likely be our opening day ss so we have a chance this year
No this is another joke. Why do we fall for this. Define insanity
Get Framber and then trade for third basemen. Everybody on table except for. Chandler and Griffin.
Pirates will land him on a 1 year deal where Framber can get back to top form under Bill Murphy.
Triolo should be on 3rd for the whole season. Guy is a gold glove and his offense will get better. Stop the dumb stuff talking about giving away more talent for a 3rd baseman when you have a solid one. Bring KG up and sign Framber.
that's one hell of a rotation if Framber Valdez is added. Build on the strength of the team and if he's great and the team still isn't competitive, you can trade him at the deadline. But that rotation with a gold glove 3rd basemen and Konnor Griffin getting the opportunity to play consistently at SS would be a great scenario.
Nutting WONT pay it
Its propoganda crap its just making fan base more upset
Aggressively perusing 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Problem isn’t pitching it’s scoring runs. They averaged around 3 runs a game when Skenes pitched and that’s why he was 10-10. League average was 4.5 runs per game. Pirates ranked last in average runs per game at 3.6. They ranked 5th in runs given up. Got to score to win.
Aggressively? Come on ! Bullshit
Google AI estimates his worth to be $34m and getting a 6 year deal. I don't see the Pirates getting him. Unless he's looking for a one year deal.
The look on bobs face said they're not getting anyone else that matters
Pomp and Joe facial expressions while his name was read was like they never even heard of Framber.
The Pirates have baited the Media with every single Big Free Agent on the Market. Feigning Competitiveness. Bob Nutting never had any intention of increasing payroll. This is his way of saying, "We Tried." This organization is completely ridiculous.
Wow. The Pirates were so aggressive. 😂 The organization is playing everyone.
