The Pirates are the minor leagues for the rich teams.

The Great One was also like a manager in the club house. He had no hesitation to call out his own players when they screwed up.

The Pirate organization is a joke today, trying to make money off Clemente is shameful.

I see they just got rid of one of their best players, their catcher, couldn't afford to pay him, buy hey they quickly replaced him with a guy hitting 162, Mario Mendoza is laughing somewhere.
