Pirates gonna Pirate

- instantly became their best reliever.


This play is the Pirates to a "T"!

Suck job reliever comes in a for a suck job Starter, sucks, sucks even worse and gets hurt while sucking even more.

Stratton had just entered the game in relief of Jake Woodford, and his fourth pitch of the appearance was a wild pitch that evaded catcher Joey Bart. As Jonathan India raced home to score from third base, Bart’s toss to Stratton (covering home plate) bounced off Stratton’s glove and rolled to the backstop. While in pursuit of the loose ball, Stratton stumbled and jammed his left leg into the stone wall behind the plate.

Pirates starter leaves with a 2-0 lead after 6 innings, the blowpen gives up 3 in 1/3rd of an inning.

First it was

Will the Pirates contend for a wildcard spot?

Then

Will the Pirates have a season over .500?

Now it's

Will the Pirates stay out of last place?

Worst part it took ONE week to go from the top to the bottom. They are the masterclass in failing miserably.

Feigl, 33, is a journeyman who has been known in baseball circles for some time due to an odd coincidence, or series of coincidences. He and Brady Feigl got some attention a few years ago due to not only having the same name, but also having a similar appearance. Both had red beards, wore glasses and were the same height. Both are pitchers, though one throws from the left and the other from the right. Inside Edition did a story on the weird juxtapositions between the two five years ago (YouTube link), even getting the two to take a DNA test, though it turned out they aren’t related.

LMFAO

No, it's not funny at all. It's time to seriously boycott this team.

I think if you’re a pirates fan at this point, you’re either not playing with a full deck or simply a glutton for punishment

Hope on the horizon, as the Steelers are gonna let Russ cook for game 1
Like I said before, we go from the B.T. Nutting Circus to the Rooney Bros. Circus.

Then in October the Cirque du Pingouins comes to town.

The Pirates should have traded Bednar last year when he still had value.

Wouldn't have made a difference. Bednar for another marginal veteran.
