I refuse to live my life as a pessimist.

You’re Bambino?? I believe you think that you are a fictional troll on a hooker board. That may be on your tombstone in fact. I doubt you’ve accomplished anything else in your life.
And no I live in reality. I’m always optimistic about the Steelers because they have a realistic shot every year. You like to put them down a lot. Pessimistic?
I’m pessimist about the Pirates because the owner is a tight ass and doesn’t care about winning.
Could it be the owners political leanings affect your level of “optimism”?

You put the Steelers down more than I do. Especially Tomlin. And we know the reason why. But this isn’t a Steeler thread. It’s a Pirates thread.

The Pirates picked Konnor Griffin, the Highschool player of the year. A 5 tool player. 6’4”, 215lbs.

5 in a row! Packed house. Half game out of the wild card. Cruz had a big night.

[bambino]

6 in a row!!!!! Ortiz with another gem. He’s becoming the pitcher the Pirates thought he could be. And Cruz is showing he can be scary good. Cutch is showing he still has something left in the tank. Great vibes from PNC.

[bambino]

Big win over the Cards. Another strong performance from Keller. Bucs 8/2 in their last ten games.

[Salty Again]

... Too Right! ... ... Great way for the lads to responde
after the Sunday loss. ... Get the hitting going late and good
relief pitching. ... Let's WIN again Tuesday! ...

Bucks win the series from the Cards. If Shelty didn’t make questionable decisions last night, it could have been a sweep. Word has it the Bucs declined a trade with the Orioles. Bednar for their #1 prospect. Cherrington walked. Rightfully so.

[bambino]

The Bucs get the win in the final game of the series. Cherrington is still sitting on his hands. He let Chisholm go to the Yankees. Unacceptable.

[Salty Again]

... They might wanna make a trade or two by Tuesday afternoon.
However, some of the bats got HOT late today.
Stupid move to pitch Bender early... IF they were tryin' to
"showcase" Holderman as a closing pitcher - it FAILED today.

Our lads are followin' Skenes to Houston to WIN Tomorrow!

So the buccos, after much pleading from their fans, just made a trade. Need some offense!!! We have a generational pitcher(arguably starting pitching staff) ………….So we traded a minor league pitcher away for a minor league second baseman.

So there’s that. Don’t hold your breath for anything remarkable. What a joke.
