FWIW, if Bubba is called up around or after 8/15, he’ll accrue less than 45 days’ service time and will still be a rookie eligible for the prospect promotion incentive if he opened 2026 on the active roster. So I think we’ll see him this year but they’re not going to burn his ROY eligibility/a shot at a draft pick to potentially improve the rotation for games that don’t matter.
No Devanney. Not that he is going to be the answer to all our problems, but just….urrggghhhh. Likewise no Cook and no Yorke. Instead, we play out the string in a lost season with IKF and Triolo. Things like this are why the Pirates are not serious about winning. They’re just not.
So disappointing. I was looking forward to some fresh faces this weekend.
Sweep by the Rockies incoming.
No yorke. No devenney.
Fuck you Ben
In his 15 games with Indy, Triolo is hitting .239 with 2 HRs.
What makes them think that he is going to suddenly learn to hit ML pitching now when he still hasn’t figured out MiL pitching?
I get that he’s a gold glove fielder, but this team doesn’t need to have a guy that can make that 1 play every couple of games to keep a game close, they need to find bats that can consistently help put runs on the board.
Triolo has had more than enough rope to prove that he isn’t one of those guys. Give someone else a look already. It’s not like it will cause you to have a lost season…..the FO already took care of that already.
Who cares
So fucking dumb. Trade for a 28 year old who plays 3rd base. Your new 3rd basemen hits worse than Hayes. The 28 year old who you traded for doesn’t get a shot in a lost season.
Ok so we trade for a bunch if shitty prospects and cant even use the roster spots to call up any of the shitty prospects we previously traded for?
Our troubles are over!
How thrilling
So Kyle Nicholas, Triolo, and Borucki are what he meant when he said “give the young guys some time.”
Fuck this team
Why triolo? He’s terrible.
I’m surprised Nicolas over Moreta. Moreta’s game logs look a little better than Nicolas recently. Maybe Moreta is not in this team’s future.

I really don’t understand what the point of acquiring cook and Yorke was at this point.
interesting choice lol
Shit man. I was just coming here to ask what the over:under is for Stroman to be pitching for us within the week. Apparently we don’t need another cancer. We’ll grow our own. Good times, good times.
Is it wrong to root for them to lose most of their games so that BC can finally get the well deserved boot?
Nicolas is another player that doesn’t deserve another callup. He keeps performing poorly.
The trades were to open up spots for Jared Triolo, guys. Poor guy was blocked. Now the plan is coming together.
The fuck is the point of even having Yorke, Devanny, Cook
Like for fucks sake at a certain point you need to get these guys in there, in a lost season, and see if something knocks loose. I don’t need to fucking know what we have in Canario, or Pham, or IKF but I need to know if we have anyone who can fucking hit in this god damned rotten carcass of an organization
But it doesn’t matter, even if we do call any of them up they will only play once every 3 games, at a different position each time, and in a different spot in the order so there is no chance to evaluate them or get them consistent experience
