    Also Peter Gammons tweets that Pirates are interested in a package deal that would send Lincecum and Cain to Pitt in exchange for Nate Mclouth and Rod Barajas

    Pittsburgh Pirates should just drop out of MLB. What the fukk is the point of having a ball club when you dont even try to win?

    All these teams collect on luxury taxes and don't put the money back into their teams......it's the same shit year after year, near empty ballparks by June, teams 20 games back by July

    When will these jerkoff owners realize you gotta spend the money to make money?? It's easy saying this being a Yankees fan, but come on man, some of these owners/teams are embaressing

    Pirates got the nicest park to play in, its a shame they put AAA quality teams in there every year. MLB needs to step in and make the Nuttings, that own the team auction it off. They are just grinding out a profit for themselves every year.

    They do have a top flight group of low minor league prospects thanks to opening the wallet in the last few drafts...

    more wasted money on stupid FA signings then any other team I can think of. mostly over the hill vets, that are trying to get one last contract before retiring. they did have a year where their FA's pretty much ALL had real good seasons. 2003 they got Reggie Saunders, Matt Stairs, Kenny Lofton, Jeff Suppan, Julian Taverez... who all exceeded expectations.

    but otherwise a bunch of failures

    fielder won't sign anywhere until the rangers sign darvish because the rangers will be in on fielder if the darvish thing falls through.

    boras is going to wait because having the rangers involved will cause more demand to drive up the salary.
