Clemente, Stargell, Van Slyke, Phil Garner, AJ Burnett, Jay Bell, Jack Wilson, Brian Giles, manny S....owmership is tight...made some bad decisions but I think this years team is moving back in the direction of 2012. Talent innthe minors....framework of a.competitive team...jist need some experience and a few additions.Davidson locked up the top seed, so the margin for Rams error is a little more pronounced...it is what it is, and it seems like the guys are as locked in and strong as ever, Take care of Fordham and then go down south and announce your presence with authority!!
As for the Pirates? Dang man, that's a tough road to hoe....SOOOOooooo much positive history just in my lifetime (born in '74)
You had 2 distinct dynasties with the 70's We Are Family group and then the Jim Leyland Bons/Bonilla/VanSlyke/Drabek et all group....followed by a real dry spell....and then a little blip of hopefulness in 13/14/15...only to have the owners pull back from $$$ commitments and now you're back in perpetual rebuilding mode.....
Do you blame the Owner/GM for the current woes? Can the Pirates contend in the NL Central?
