Epic win.
Should the Pirates keep Neal Huntington?

Gerrit Cole
has the shoulders of a man that could throw complete game, after complete game, after complete game. Dude is thick up top.

never understood the ridicolous jersey numbers
#75, #61, #99 ??
I’m sure there are better choices available..
we have 10 numbers retired
plus the 25 get 1st pick, plus coaches.

Yep.
Everybody on the 40-man is in camp, plus 19 NRIs, plus nine members of the coaching staff, plus ten retired numbers.
That’s a total of 78 people who need different numbers, out of a total of 99 possibilities.
Or just rock
the 100. Someone did that for WVU back in the day. Can’t remember who.

Should be 12 retired
Can’t believe we never retired Barry Bonds and Bobby Bonilla’s number.

I think it makes sense that they didn’t retire Bonds’s number until Bonds himself was officially retired, but you’d have to think they’ll go there sooner or later.
Is Rudy Owens attempting to adopt the “Wild Thing Rick Vaughn” persona? The skull and crossbones frames will play really well for this franchise…

It's a good day to be a Pirate
And that guy's a perfectly reliable human
Wouldn’t it be better if Owens became Charlie Sheen? Not from a baseball standpoint; from a purely entertainment view.
I saw Charlie Sheen live last year
When he was preforming in DC, best show I ever attended.

I'd ask for 99.
Best number ever.

And seldom
has comma placement been so important.

As George Carlin said
about his dog strolling into the room and licking its balls in front of company:
“If I could do that, I’d never leave the house.”
You should see the jersey-number situation at minor-league camp.

I disagree it has been too short
Feels like yesturday David Freese was hitting a GWHR in the WS and Burger King Fielder was a Brewer.

Go back and read the first 3 400+ comment threads regarding Paul Maholm
Then, if you haven’t shot yourself in the face yet, start on the 2008 draft, the Alonso/Rizzo trades, and A.J. Burnett. We all turned on each other shortly after the first week of January.
Believe me I have probally read every comment regarding Maholm
Since it went down and it still feels short. I remember everyone turning on each other and WTM and Thunder were leading the way. Fun times!!

You're a better man than me
I had to take a break, step back, and hug loved ones instead of commenting/reading more comments this offseason.
Great photo
And let’s go bucs! Can’t wait to start the game threads.
can't help wondering
what Ray is saying to them all.
