I assembled the best worst Pirate team I could think of.
First post here so take it easy on me haha.
Last time the Pirates had winning record I was 2. This is the latest I have seen them be .500 while actively watching them, so I decided to look back and laugh at the last 19 years. I assembled a legit roster of the worst players I could remember being on the Pirates, mostly the PNC Park Era because that’s when I was conscious in the sports world. Let me know what you think and supply a roster on your own . I followed a 25 man roster with 6 bench and 6 pen because there are so man quality hitters.
