Re: Bucs 2014
Beautiful!!!!!! Always agreed on what their doing as long as they kept them(I was having doubts) ..... I still wish they'd spend a little for worthwhile rentals to take a shot... I'd like they full year kind not the 2 month rental at the deadline that costs you prospects for 60 days more or lessS Cube wrote:Marte gets 6 years 31 million. I love it. This could be a huge steal for the Bucs, and even if he does disappoint, it's not a ridiculous amount of money lost. Great move by the Pirates FO.

Re: Bucs 2014
2 year team option is indeed included. Marte basically locked up through 2021!
You play to win the game!!!

Re: Bucs 2014
Shifting gears a bit, with Liriano and Tallion hurting .... Does Lock and Cumpton still start in AAA as planned?

Re: Bucs 2014
I have been on the Cumpton train since last year....isn't Locke in the Grigorious rumors?
Re: Bucs 2014
I'm with you on that one. Volquez not so much.crfball wrote:I have been on the Cumpton train since last year....isn't Locke in the Grigorious rumors?
It ain't over until it's over.
Re: Bucs 2014
Liriano pitched 55 pitches in a 3 inning simulated game yesterday and felt no discomfort. He is going to throw a little on Saturday and as long as there are no setbacks take the mound Monday at 1:35 in PNC park. If he suffers a setback he will likely go on the DL and Cumpton will be the opening day starter.
Re: Bucs 2014
I just read something that blew my mind about Liriano. He only allowed two extra base hits to left handed hitters ALL SEASON last year.
I think a lot of the Pirates success this season depends on whether Liriano can at least come close to what he did last year. If he flops, which he has done before in his career, it will be tough to make the playoffs.

Re: Bucs 2014
I think Liriano wins 20 games this year. I'm not worried about him. As for Cole, I think he wins north of 15 games and Morton will be hot on his trail, as well. Heck I got Wandy down for 12-15 wins...
Re: Bucs 2014
I think Morton will have the best year of all the starting pitchers. His stuff is great, if he can stay healthy he could be dominant.
