Nobody in a Pirate uni patrolled CF better than Billy Virdon. A lot of better hitters, but not D.
It ain't over until it's over.

Re: Top 10 Greatest Pittsburgh athletes of all time.
I think when its all said and done, McCutchen will be trolling that all time Center Field for the Bucs. Wayyy too early to put him in now. But without question the most talented Pirate since Bonds.

Re: Top 10 Greatest Pittsburgh athletes of all time.
Stats don't equal wins,defense,handling staffs, everything a catcher does. I loved Kendall, but I'd take spanky,Manny, or even Ed Ott before him.

Re: Top 10 Greatest Pittsburgh athletes of all time.
The best thing about Kendall....Base stealing, How many catchers like that can run? Kendall played on some bad teams, but its laughable to say Manny is the no doubt choice at Catcher. There is an argument for Kendall.
