Cant wait til Training Camp!!! All there is to look foward to in Pittsburgh anymore. The real kick in the pants with the Pirates is that the city wants a winner. Some cities, Tampa Bay for example, could give a damn if their team was in first or last. Pirates fans want this thing soooo bad. I was at a game last year in late summer against the Mets - a close win - and the place was absolutely insane. Could only imagine if the team was actually in contention at that point! I dont know what they need to do to get better - player development perhaps in the minors - but there is a nice (but small nucleus) with Bay, Sanchez, J. Wilson, and the young pitching but its just impossible to do well when Perez and Kip have pitched as poorly as they have. Oh well, will always enjoy going to games whether they are winning or not. Noticed you're from New Stanton - nice area. My dad actually works out there at Supervalu.
