Pittsburgh Pirates

Follow Team

We are about 72 hours away from Opening Day when the Pirates open the season against the Marlins. We already know Paul Skenes is set to be the starter. How have things been handled with Skenes so far? Chris said it’s hard to have excitement built up because the Pirates haven’t done much around Skenes. We also are awaiting injury news on Jared Jones, which popped up last week. Chris said it hasn’t been a thoughtful or productive offseason for the Buccos. There are so many question marks with this team, it’s hard to put them at a serious level. How much pressure should there be on the front office? Why does it feel like so few guys that are 50/50 prospects ever work out for them?
