The Steelers may have landed the biggest STEAL of the Draft with 7th-round pick Eli Heidenreich. 💎👀🔥 @EHeidenreich44 @steelers

Any manager thinking it’s a great idea to walk somebody to load the bases when you have Yohan Ramirez pitching especially when the runners are on 1st and 2nd needs to reevaluate if they can actually manage a baseball team.

Two losses in a row dictated by the manager decisions

@therichfromca Yes👍

@TheStandard412 No!!!

I complimented Don Kelly’s decision today taking Keller out because he has been lacking confidence and needed to end his day on a high note.

That said, taking Chandler out when your bullpen is taxed and you know you have no one “good” left in the BP and Bubba was dealing with no sign of slowing down, that is just malpractice on his part.

You need to understand what is going on and stop using a computer to manage a baseball game sometimes. Kelly and the offense are the reason this was a series loss tonight.

MAGIC MAN JERSEY GIVEAWAY: I am in a generous mood. If Esmerlyn Valdez goes deep today. I’ll give out 3 beautiful Pirates Valdez jerseys. If he hits a homer AND the Pirates win. I’ll give away 5 jerseys. All you have to do is 1) Follow me. And 2) Repost this. LETS GO BUCS!!!

Hard not to root for Khristian Curtis.

Early in his career, Curtis underwent what turned into a botched right elbow surgery. Stitches were placed through a nerve, causing significant nerve damage. Every time he threw a baseball, the nerve was being damaged further.

When he returned to the mound, he lost all feeling from his elbow down to his fingers during his first start back. Nerve conduction tests showed no response whatsoever.

He eventually underwent a second surgery. While Curtis was in the operating room, doctors told his parents there was a possibility he might never throw a baseball again.

Curtis told us during his first pro season that the nerve damage was so severe he couldn't feel the baseball with certain fingers. At that time, he still had minimal feeling in his pinky and ring finger.

Considering everything he's overcome, it's impossible not to root for him every time he takes the mound.

David Bednar hasn’t given up a run since May 18th. He’s pitched in 16 straight games without giving up a run. And the Pirates traded him for 💩. It could cost them a playoff spot.

[Andrew Fillipponi @ThePoniExpress]

Good thing the Pirates traded David Bednar for a catcher who can’t catch or hit. Brilliant move.

Obama has become the biggest headache for Trump 🔥

🇺🇸 Trump at 4:00 PM: "We are winning big in Iran, and you will see the fruits of that very shortly."

🇺🇸 Obama at 5:00 PM: "We already seen the fruits from your illegal war. You wasted billions of taxpayer money. Broke the military. People died. Inflation spiked to historic levels. Many are jobless.

And now we’re worse off than before. Wow, what a BIG WIN. Only a clown cheers this." 🔥

Absolute brutal by Obama 💪🔥

Think about this for a second.

We’re in the middle of July. Football camp is around the corner. Basketball recruiting never stops.

Yet the biggest buzz in Mountaineer athletics today belongs @WVUBaseball ⚾️🟡🔵 #efforting #hailWV

Mountaineer Nation, let’s run it back.

[Noah Hiles @_NoahHiles]

Carmen Mlodzinski is the best relief pitcher on the Pirates' roster. He'd also be an upgrade for the starting rotation. His time in this current role must come to an end. He has far more value to provide.

My column:

[D Reas @drball43]

Don Kelly
1) Is a yes man to Skenes
2) Has a man crush on Triolo
3) Has no idea how to use his bullpen
4) Has cost the team at least 10 wins this year
Other than that he’s doing a fine job

[Andrew Fillipponi @ThePoniExpress]

The Pirates never offered Aroldis Chapman a contract after he was great here in 2024.

The Pirates traded David Bednar to the Yankees for a pack of Nicorette gum and bag of Funyuns.

And now they've got the worst bullpen in team history.

[Bob Smizik @BobSmizik]

In his past 11 starts, Mitch Keller has a 7.03 ERA and a 1.56 WHIP. He probably can’t help the bullpen, but if he went there it would sure help the rotation. Time to bring Mlodzinski back to the rotation.
