no jello, fangraphs is over-rating him with

WAR sabermetrics I guess


4.7 wins above replacement


I know Tehrehan

we don't NEED him... we got guys like Heredia, Allie, Tallion coming up in 2013-2014

we need bats
 
We already traded you Gorkys. We don't want him back.

I'll give you Teheran, Delgado, AND Becahy/Minor.

If you turned that down as an MLB GM you'd deserve to be shot. That's going to be a future 1, 2, and 3 of a solid MLB pitching staff.

I don't think Tallion will be a frontline starter that soon. He's freaking 19.

Do you know how many #1 draft picls fizzle out in the minors, or never reach the potential they showed at 18? Lets see him put up numbers for 2 or 3 years in the minors (like Teheran) and then come talk to me about him.

You're getting dumber with every post in here Archie.
 
Fuck Fangraphs. if you're a Pirates fan, you have seen potential studs come to Pittsburgh for 20+years now. Here is a chance to buil on what they have. More 'potential' all-stars don't fill the seats. Pitt is in a position to take on payroll and they need to show their fans that.
 
pirates are good with #1 picks lately

we still don't need Teheran

Tallion, Allie, Black, Von RosenBurg, Owens, Hughes, Heridia, ect.... Pirates are looking to trade young arms

we are overloaded there..


we also can deal some very good middle infielders from our high minors

guys like Holt, Cunningham, Mercer, Friday ect...

Braves are going after Bourn of the Astros. I don't think the Braves want any players from the Pirates. We are trying to improve our team not make it worse. Why would we take anyone form the Pirates?

But taking a player from a team 20 under .500 will solve the problems. Easy to build stats when your team sucks. See Adam Dunn for further reference.

I think they will next year and the year after


they've spent more on the draft the last 3 years than any other team.....

they are willing to spend

but history tell us, you don't do it by taking on salary dumps come july 31

do you think the Pirates would take back guys like
jason bay
xavier nady
jack wilson
freddy sanchez
Nate McClouth
Damaso Marte
ect.


They haven't had potential studs for years to be honest FW

not since Chad Hermansen anyways
 
Depends on the player Archie. If you're 2 out on July 31 and someone like Carlos Pena is available. Let's also say they are in a fight for the WC with Atl and SF. Does Pitt mgmt stand up and offer an prospect or do th safe thing and tell their fans we have a lot of prospects? Me thinks they go the safe route.
