Re: Pirates Attendance Woes

Jeremy Burnitz used to be a great slugger in his days on Milwaukee. But that has been a few years now. I would still acquire him since he is a decent outfielder. But of course, I wouldn't center my franchise around him!

See Billy Beane in Oakland. It can be done. Granted it's a hard thing to do but they've got to spend their money more wisely. Detroit did it this year by developing starting pitching and sticking with it.

Re: Pirates Attendance Woes

I like the Cubun idea we all see how dedicated he is with the Mavericks that would be good for the Pirates

Re: Pirates Attendance Woes

I'd like to re-acquire Brian Giles, who was a great slugger back in the day. How much does Willie Stargell's contract cost? I want him too. Is he still alive? If he is not, it would be a bummer.
