Hey, if it works it will be the first good thing that’s ever come of Twitter.

No regrets.

I told him to imagine being the ace on the staff that brought a winning team to pittsburgh and that we’d prob make him a statue right next to Clemente for that haha

“Your signing in PGH would be a ray of hope that 20 years alternately vibrating between hell & purgatory might soon be over”

“You should sign in Pittsburgh because it might make the yinzers here stop saying the Bucs will never sign a Scott Boras client”

“Come to Pittsburgh! The Cards & Brewers are significantly worse this year & you can always pitch around Joey Votto”

“Pittsburgh: Because where else can you be greeted as savior and staff ace?”

“Look, if you don’t come be a Pirate, Kevin Correia will be in our rotation and I can’t take that again "

“You’d be the best pitcher on our staff since Doug Drabek left in free agency when I was 11. I’m turning 30 this year. Help.”

“Cost of living here in Allegheny County is cheap even in the tony areas. Your (millions of) dollars go farther!”

“I’ve been arguing the Bucs should bring you on board since the 2010 trade deadline & I’ll look prescient.”

“Wouldn’t you want your own statue among the immortals outside PNC Park? Clemente, Wagner, Stargell…I’ll guarantee you get one.”

“Note: That last tweet is not a guarantee. But sign here anyway”

“Can any other team offer you a manager that turns purple? Thought not. ”http://cdn0.sbnation.com/imported_assets/767311/hurdlepurple.png" target="_blank">http://cdn0.sbnation.com/imported_assets/767311/hurdlepurple.png"

BULLETPROOF LOGIC, KIDS

“Thanks to the #BucsNation for the support It is very much appreciated!"

Any minute now, guys!

As someone else said: “That tweet had more of a ‘lolPirates vibe’ to it than ’I’m on a plane to Pitt.’”

he said he hopes EJax is a bucco next year. Jmac is so underrated both as a pitcher for us and on twitter. he’s great!

I’m gonna be an offensive lineman for the Steelers next year.

…I’ve been informing the official Pirates account that I’ll buy many more tickets if they sign Jackson. Feel free to do the same.

…has a good short summation of Our Story So Far:

In brief(er)—No, nothing will come of it, but the support from both fans and perhaps even more so players like Hanrahan & JMac is telling.

Looks like we can call off those Twitter dogs. Just when it seemed it might work too. :)

Come to Pittsburgh, and you’ll definitely play for a contender. Either here or get traded to a contender. I’m sure it will work.

UPDATE 1:23 PM: “Designated Hitter” receives call from Neil Huntington, and is asked if he can play 1B. “Designated Hitter” decides to do some pushups and light jogging.

UPDATE 1:24 PM: “Designated Hitter” already has a better OPS than Garret Jones.

Quick, everybody tweet @Bootsy_Collins to rescue us from next year’s concert schedule.
