Is this the year my beloved Pirates win their first World Series since '79?

Someone please give me some reason to hope.

I don't think they'll be worse than the Cards, so they got that going for them.

I wish Skenes would refuse to play. The Pirates are and have been an absolute joke throughout the last 30 years.

Pirates are a very trendy pick to maybe be a wildcard team this year.

I thank Skenes for the CWS run, just like Burrow though he is now a pro and whatever happens happens.

Fangraphs projection likes them more than PECOTA does. Will see but they are in the crab bucket of teams who can probably get 83 to 85 wins and be the 3rd wild card team in

No, they contend for wild card till late August then fade into nothing, just like all the 'good' years since Y2K

They finally made a bunch of moves to actually score some runs. If you look at their lineup then imagine Griffin in there at some point (and the hype is real), you can see them being in the hunt for a WC spot

Sorry brother. Our Buccos are doomed to another year of mediocrity. I'm just hoping we're not 10 games out of first by the end of April like usual.

It's not out the realm for them to get a WC spot and the playoffs are a crapshoot, so sure, why not? Opening Day is for optimism

Jake Mangum is going to lead the pirates to glory

how many Pirates game have you been to lately? I was working there and went at least a dozen and they were competitive in almost all, including a win vs the Yankees.
Great stadium, tradition and young rotation. Skenes refusing to play? What an IDIOTIC statement.
The will compete for the central and a WC this season.

If the Pirates are leading at the break, you can expect them to trade all of their contributors not named Skenes or Cruz

Spencer Jones and Jasson Dominguez should put up numbers after they trade Skenes to the Yankees.

Great start for Skenes

As a longtime Pirate fan myself, I’m afraid all hope is lost until there is a change of ownership.
