u been to any games this year? fellow pitt guy here. the atmosphere in north shore is amazing when theres a game. so much energy. i remember earlier in the season, the pirates were rolling but i think a lot of ppl were skeptical still and the stands werent packed yet. somewhere along the line, maybe around june or whenever cole came up, we started sellin out games and its become really fun
for those not following, pirates traded my mets for marlon byrd and john buck. good trade for both. buccos got a starting caliber outfielder and a major league catcher which their hurt backup was not. mets got victor black who i think can be a great reliever and a 2B prospect who was 20th in the pirates organization at the beginning of the year and was now 11thish
traded nothing basically and got morneau from the twins too.
love the moves for the pirates. they got better without depleting the farm system for someone like stanton. one of the few teams that are 1. one of the best teams and 2. have one of the best farm systems
