Bad Company, by Bad Company, on Bad Company

@ThePoniExpress Probably pretty accurate actually. Team is getting way over blown.

Mark Kaboly just predicted the Pirates to go 72-90. Good grief.

@ThePoniExpress Tourney's on. No one is watching this.

@burackbobby_ What a strange time period

Today is the four year anniversary of Rex Chapman on CBS talking about Pete Gillen’s death during March Madness. One problem: Pete Gillen is alive and was working for CBS during the segment.

@drewvonscio1 @Pirates Regardless, huge disappointment

@stephen_ohl @Pirates Endy wasn’t drafted by the Pirates 🤦🏼‍♂️

ROSTER MOVE: We have optioned C/1B Endy Rodriguez to Triple-A Indianapolis. There are now 37 players remaining in Major League camp.

@Acyn This idiot doesn't have a clue.

Trump: Everything was going great. The economy was great. I hate to make this excursion, but we're going to have to do it. And I actually thought the numbers would be worse. I thought that it would go up more than it did.  So I wanted to put out that fire and I said, you know, if I do that, oil prices will go up, the economy will go down a little bit. I thought it would be worse, much worse. Actually, I thought there was a chance it could be much worse. It’s not bad.

All my nightmares come true

@MarkMaddenX @JPerrotto Is a big fan of Ken Rosenthal as it turns out.

. @JPerrotto tells me that he hasn’t heard that the Pirates& Griffin are talking about a long-term deal. He’s a reporter, not a fan. Wxdx.com/listen

SCOOP: Early footage of Dune 3 trailer has leaked online revealing key Shai-Hulud plot points.

@aedison Are his calves AI. I can't figure it out

I think what O’Malley (a rare true comic genius) does with generative LLM tools has worked in the past and sometimes works here, but it’s important to notice that there’s more of it in this video than in others. The thing “AI” does best is train you to use it.

@JMackey_PGH Yeah, no kidding. We've watched him the last couple years too.

Seven-pitch second inning for Mitch Keller, who has already piled up seven whiffs. This is Keller's fourth start of spring. Steady every time. Test with Keller will be how he finishes the season, not necessarily how he starts it.

@getfriedawake @_LarryJ_ Thought it was freeze the nipple

@_LarryJ_ why is it sponsored by cold stone

lol'ing

@SteeloCity A sonic boooooooo-m perhaps

@tyler_divido33 @JoshYohe_PGH The whole city of Denver is transplants unfortunately

@JoshYohe_PGH I’m convinced fans of teams that come to Denver are transplants.

Good crowd pop as Geno takes the ice for warm-ups, primarily because the annual, insane amount of Penguins fans has arrived in Denver.

@Kzovko Which was a direct result of drafting him.

Steeler fans laughing at this while they’ve had 6 starting QBs in the last 5 years 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@AustinRBechtold Just mad they didn’t tank like he was begging and actively rooting for them to do.

Last Penguins season was defined by double-digit games allowing a goal on the first shot This #Penguins season is defined by losses in the shootout The Penguins are now 1-10

@BrianBatko Do wonder what lead to them to choose Waitman, holding?

Steelers just announced they're bringing back former punter Cameron Johnston on a one-year deal. Johnston was supposed to have the role in 2024 but went down in Week 1 with a season-ending injury, battled back to be ready for camp last year but was beaten out by Corliss Waitman.

@RyanDivish The guy just says hello then the don't deal with anyone this. Do they not see that?

We talked with Cal Raleigh via facetime, he said "There's no beef with Randy. I love him. He's my brother. " He's already talked to Arozarena about the situation to clarify what transpired as well as manager Dan Wilson

@JoeStarkey1 Should the Pirates read anything into Skene's answer's to tonight's Rosenthal's interview? Specifically Skenes saying he enjoyed getting run support and playing in front of a full stadium?

Yes, it's time for a mailbag. Publishes tomorrow at triblive.com. Your insightful question here ...
