I’m so sick of this goddamn team. They absolutely make me want to vomit. I’m not even ten goddamn games into this season and i want to scream. They are that terrible. It’s like the movie groundhog day but instead i’m reliving the shittiest games of baseball over and over and over again every fucking day of my life. Every damn day I have watched this pathetic mess of a team, rain or sun or snow since I was 7 years old. I have a tab open during work w/ the gamecast during the day games that I can’t go. I’ve skipped school and work and broken up with women for the Pirates. I’ve missed funerals and weddings because i loved this team more. And what do I get to show for it? A FUCKING BRAIN ANEURYSM. A team that has had 3 winning seasons over the past 20 something who manages to play like ass in the playoffs on the rare occasion they make it because they are so used to being shit and don’t have a winning culture. A team that game in and game out somehow manages to have less goddamn hits than Chumbawamba. A team that gets swept. By the Cincinnati Reds. “Oh but look at our young talent- Cole and Taillon and Bell and whoever else that sucks dick!!” I’m sick of hearing “we could be a contender like we were 3 years ago if Cutch doesn’t play like shit and the LF can stop jerking off for 2 seconds to swing the fucking bat” ITS NOT HAPPENING. WE ARE NOT AND NEVER WERE A GOOD TEAM. WE ARE PATHETIC. MIGHT AS WELL FADE US NOW BECAUSE WE’RE ALREADY A BUNCH OF FUCKING LOSERS. If Clemente didn’t die in that plane crash, I’m convinced he would have killed himself after being forced to wear our godforsaken excuse of uniform for 18 years of his life. I’m done with this fucking team.
How the fuck did Shelton get an extension.
I’m not a fan of that ump’s dynamic strike zone
Not having fun watching Pirate’s baseball recently!
Oof, snap back to reality
Can everybody please stop hating on Castro, he’s probably one of the better hitters on the team. Just saying
1) Had they put in a competent relief pitcher they could have won this game.
2) If before the season someone said to me, “The Pirates are 3 games above .500 on May 12th.” I’d be completely happy and I would assume that they are 2nd or 3rd in the division. So relative to that, this season is going great.
Relative to April, this is probably the worst it could have gone. I know there’s regressing to the mean, but this is a bit dramatic.
Swaggerty, Gonzales, Endy. The offense needs a jolt, it’s been more than a week since they scored more than three runs in a game. This bullpen management is starting to irritate me as well.
So happy we extended the perennial loser Derek shelton after one fluke hot month
Connor Joe had a good at bat but Castro and Bae blew it. Not every pitch that a closer gives you is gonna be a strike, they want you to chase. Take a fuckin ball
This team can’t score and only has a couple of people who can even pitch on it.
Where’s all the cutesy Nutting memes now
The inability to hit is the bottom line. Don’t get me wrong the pitching is not great, but you can’t win most games if you can’t score more than three runs
Missed the 8th, did Underwood start crying on the mound again?
Everyone on this team is a fucking loser without any heart or desire. Call up the fucking prospects you fucking cowards.
Well at least we made it to May before I was indifferent to losses. Normally it’s a couple weeks earlier.
That homer from Mullins was perfectly served up for him. Moreta should have been left in a little longer.
At least the Brewers are winning. Now maybe the management and broadcasting crew will stop slapping their dicks around chanting “STILL IN FIRST PLACE!!1!1!” while we have actively been the worst team in baseball by a wide margin for two weeks now
Underwood for DFA
Also if announcers could stop saying things like “Moreta hasn’t given up an inherited runner all season” because that’s the fastest way to ensure it’s going to happen
The Curse of the Maggi
On the bright side, at least Underwood Jr. won’t be available to pitch tomorrow.
