The Pittsburgh Pirates were the best team in baseball in 2015 and would have won the World Series if it were not for MLB's ridiculous one game playoff in the WC round
.@Buster_ESPN on the Red Sox:
“What I’ve heard today is, they’re aggressively looking for a right-handed hitter… It might be a case where the Red Sox are willing to take on a bad contract.”

Bubba Chandler’s growing pains are real. So is the Pirates bullpen’s inability to protect him from them.
Both need to be addressed — and fast.

Not every awkward answer is a controversy.
Let's leave Jared Jones alone and let him focus on getting healthy and back to a Major League mound.

The Pirates’ biggest problem with Bubba Chandler right now isn’t Joey Bart.
It’s that too many people are looking for someone else to blame.

There are going to be plenty of fans angry at the way the Pittsburgh Pirates handled Hunter Barco on Monday night — and understandably so.
But the outrage directed at manager Don Kelly misses the larger picture entirely.

The Pittsburgh Pirates are learning something in real time about Don Kelly: creativity as a manager is a lot more fun when it works.

Pirates fans had every right to be frustrated with Don Kelly last night.
When you’ve spent years waiting for meaningful baseball, seeing your hottest hitter taken out of the biggest spot is going to sting.

Oneil Cruz is making his ugly opening series feel like a distant memory. Is this a sign of the breakout we've been waiting for?

In deciding when to call up Konnor Griffin, the Pirates made sure every possible angle — competitive, financial, developmental, and even theatrical — worked in their own favor when they finally did.
Well done, Buccos.

If you’re going to sign up for the 2026 Pittsburgh Pirates experience, you’d better get comfortable living at both ends of the spectrum.
Through the first week of the season, no two players embody that reality more than Oneil Cruz and Bubba Chandler.

There are bad takes… and then there’s New York Yankees fans talking themselves into a Paul Skenes trade because of one bad inning in March.
