A relic from the past! #BringBackTheGloss

@CALLAS_33 @MarkMaddenX @937theFan Can’t even simply disagree with people anymore. Sad.

@CALLAS_33 @MarkMaddenX @937theFan It’s ALWAYS entertaining to watch his fans show how soft they are by getting extremely upset you even dare criticize or talk about him. They can’t take 1 ounce of criticism or they all blow up and have to respond negatively.

.@MarkMaddenX: "They're not allowed to mention my name!" Literally on @937theFan today:

Life is way better when you aren’t looking at literally everything about your sports team in a negative way.

@mgswift7 @TribLIVE AWFUL TRADE! FIRE CHERINGTON!!! FIRE KELLY!!! SELL THE TEAM!!!

Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium is set to trade gorillas with Boston’s Franklin Park Zoo. Frankie, Pittsburgh’s 7-year-old male western lowland gorilla, will head to Boston, and in exchange, Boston will send 33-year-old Little Joe the silverback @TribLIVE 🦍 triblive.com/local/regional…

ENDY!!!

So nice to see Endy get that hit.

Not going to panic about this team until the summer months. I still feel like this team can do more than they are showing. Got to get everyone hot at the same time.

So to the Pirates fans. Who are you replacing Lawrence with?. I want names. I’m not defending Lawrence, he’s been awful, but who are we replacing him with? I can only think of 1 player, but you need more than 1 to fix this bullpen I think.

@SteelCityBucs30 My dad has said all of these tonight.

I do know actually. The next comments would be: “Why did Kelly bring in XYZ reliever? He’s terrible”

“Middle relief for the Pirates is REALLY bad” “Kelly should’ve pulled Keller in the 5th inning” Not sure how you can simultaneously hold both of these positions.

I’m sure the Pirates fans will be reasonable about Mitch’s bad inning.

Damnit

Damnit Mitch.

Mitch…

Does the 6:40 start time not work well for anyone else? I always thought 7:05 was good. Gave families time to get to the ballpark after work and stuff. That 25 minute difference is small but I feel can make a huge difference.

@MarkMaddenX If you’re buying it straight from the team, that’s the cheapest they get with fees.

There’s cheaper tickets than that.

People who think the Pirates attendance numbers would be fixed overnight are delusional. That was never going to happen. If they continue to make the right moves to win and show that they’re serious these next few years, the fans will be back.

So I understand Garcia had a good return to AAA, but let’s calm down now. He needs at least a couple weeks down there where he hits consistently. He had a rough start to the year. And Ozuna has been alright this month so far.

@SteelCityBucs30 Seeeeee. Look what happens when hold them accountable. We did this!

The fans get what they’ve been asking for. Griffin higher. Regular lefty batters in vs LHP. Let’s go!
