Yes…every 5 years they fire and hire so fools like me will think maybe before I die they will win 81 games in a year..same owner same results.. If a team does not make the playoffs in ten years the owner should lose the team to the highest bidder. WE BUILT THE STADIUM.. FOR WHAT??? the promise was a winning team..remember??? With a pirate uniform..not visiting uniform.. I should not care..no one should are about this team.. Penguins and Steelers can win….RIGHT????

You do understand that the current management has not been there for 18 years, right?

Suggesting the Pirates will not trade Pressly because he fits their illogical internal value = dumbass.

Suggesting the Pirates trade two top 10 prospects for one year of Gavin Floyd =awesome.

That’s how this board rolls.

I can vouch for that. Ironically, somebody called me a dumbass and my posts got deleted.

Trade the whole team for 3 beer and a hotdog..as usual they will be terrible.. This is a plaything for the owner..he only cares about $$$$ .. Stipid fans go watch..or WRITE about the Pirates..including me.. hopless pirate fan… but not a fan of the owner. How can any team draft high for 18 years and still be terrible????? I see nothing in the future except losing..30 years and counting… ha ha we are all idiots…and he laughs all the way to the bank?????

The difference between Tabata and McLouth is that Tabata received a very team friendly deal. He signed that because he wanted to play in Pittsburgh. McLouth’s deal was market rate for his three arbitration years plus control over his first free agent year. It’s not really the same situation.

More than anything, I think the Pirates should trade Hanrahan. Closers are much easier to replace, and coming off a huge season, Hanrahan could net a substantial return. I think Hanrahan to the Rangers for Jurickson Profar isn’t too crazy. It makes sense, as the Rangers intend to convert Feliz to a starter and Profar is blocked at SS by Andrus. Not to mention Pittsburgh could use a SS more than anything.

I do not buy into the concept that a player cannot be traded because of the effect it will have on the team, players play for money, not for feelings, they have agents, they want money too, they will get over it, future contracts will be written, McClouth was a favorite, they signed other contracts after they let him go, the team was distraught, the fans were distraught, but they all got over it.

I would trade Tabata, if he is not the 4th outfielder this spring, he will be in the near future. I do not believe Grossman is near the majors, he looks to me like he needs at least a year or two more in the minors and rushing him would be a mistake in my view.
