Out of Williams, Musgrove, Bell and Taillon starting arb next season which one or multiple could we see locked up multiple years if any?
nubyjas wilborn
1:31
It'd be wise for the team to lock up all four. But I'd say Williams and Musgrove might be more likely. Bell is a Boras guy and Jamo is a player rep. Of course, if the right number is offered anything can happen

True, but they don't have these.

Will we see Mitchell Keller this season taking the sport of Christopher Archer?

Why does there seem to be such a lack of power in the entire Pirate organization?  Team sorely needs a middle of the order power hitter/ run producer and there doesn't appear to be anyone in their minor league system with any kind of power potential.  With this team's offensive and scoring deficiencies you would think they would be putting more emphasis in their scouting on finding prospects capable of hitting some home runs.

Good question, well, they had a guy named Austin Meadows... But home run power can be developed it's also very hard to know. The team spends a lot of resources in player dev but it hasn't translated yet, That said Bell is hitting well and Marte hit a big home run yesterday.

Why do the Pirates pick up everybody’s rejects ? Thanks for the chat.

One man's trash is another man's treasure.

Would you consider Chisenhall an awful signing and waste of a roster spot?
nubyjas wilborn

that's unfair.

Why didn’t the Pirates draft Cody Bellinger ?

Baron not being activated?  15 minutes to game time, no announcement.
nubyjas wilborn
1:53
still, no official move made. We're waiting.

Reynolds and Tucker have been fun to watch and have given the Pirate fans something to look forward to with respect to the future of the team.  I for one hope they stay up the whole season.  Do you see Ke'bryan Hayes getting a shot with the Pirates this season?  He did have a pretty good spring.
nubyjas wilborn
1:54
Hayes had a strong spring, but most of hits weren't against big league pitching. That said I do think he'll get a shot at some point this season.

Do the Pirates still see Kevin Newman as their potential SS of the future or more of a utilityman now that he is getting starts in the OF at AAA?
nubyjas wilborn
1:54
Tucker might close the book on that
Triple H

Not pirates related. What are your thoughts on the Miami Marlins? Are they doing this right and will they become a contender eventually?
nubyjas wilborn
1:55
We won't know for at least 3 or 4 years, but that seems to be the model these days.
2:04
okay, the game is about to start, See you next week.

Is there any chance Nutting sells the team?
nubyjas wilborn
2:04
no, why would he?
