I was planning on posting the 40 man roster at the end of the season and doing a player by player review of their future prospects. it would be very bleak

Do it. I enjoy misery.

I mean as far as long term outlook of this team, the "tradable" assets would be T. Williams, J. Musgove, J. Bell, and that is pretty much it. Those guys have WAR is -1.0, 0.3, and -0.8. Not sure what value you get out of those guys

Have to just hope that Bell, Reynolds, Newman, Polanco, Tucker and Frazier were just fully disengaged all year. Hopeless outlook combined with fluky pandemic season. Otherwise, this collection combining for like a sub .600 OPS makes a case for just going dormant for a couple of season at the major league season. Just like self-relegating your team.

As a soccer fan, I would support actually relegating them.

O'Niel Cruz was involved in an accident that killed three people in the DR.

That’s a long **** way from Altoona, which is where I assumed he was.

Regardless of whether it was him, driving in the DR seems like one of the most dangerous things in the world.

False report.

Post by **MR25** » Tue Sep 22, 2020 9:26 am

"I just spoke with O'Neil Cruz"

"False report. I just spoke with Oneil Cruz."

The guy accused says he didn't do it. Case closed.

Musgrove's stuff at least has the ability to miss bats. Williams has nothing. If he pitches well, he probably got lucky. And that hasn't happened in 2 years. He doesnt belong in the major leagues.

Williams sucks

Post by **MrKennethTKangaroo** » Tue Sep 22, 2020 9:57 am

During his good year, he had to lead the league in guys swinging and missing at juicy 92 mph fastballs right down the shtter.

Batters have adjusted to his profound ability to throw juicy 92 mph fastballs down the middle. Their adjustment is to hit those pitches at a very high velocity and a very far distance

It happened they are now admitting...they also promise he wasn't drinking.

A star prospect running over three dudes a year and five days from the day their all star closer was arrested for being a pedophile is peak Pirates.

The pirates can't have anything good.
