They cited stats on WAR and fWAR as to why they didn't target certain high dollar free agents

All things being equal, does NH make it two more years? If he does, does Nutting extend his contract?

I think so. It seems like he's here to stay.

The Chisenhall thing is fascinating.  A mild calf strain and he's done for the year?  Any idea if he pulled an 'Operation Shutdown' like Derek Bell did so many years ago?

I don't think it's that. But it was disappointing that he wasn't around.

I know the pitching was a big part of their failure this year but I also believe losing Cervelli was a huge problem. Do you believe they will go out and get a good catcher.

Yes they needed him behind the plate and as a leader. He was missed a lot. I think they will have no choice.

Thanks for response.  I understand game is analytically driven but just frustrating aspect as a fan is the Pirates seem to approach roster construction hoping that all the stars align and everything pans out.  In a game of imperfection it is tough to get behind the plan when options such as Wade Miley, Charlie Morton were options in FA.

I understand your frustration. It'll be interesting to see what they do this offseason.

Okay, ladies and gentlemen, I'm out.
