I really feel like all of the answers pointed to 2015 as the first contending year. He said he wants to have the pitching ready in the farm system before we try to compete. I think he really hates the idea of trading prospect at the deadline the first year we contend. He wants to go into the first contending season knowing we're going to contend.

pitching lol

 

also that thread just reminded me how many shitty seasons we've had to endure...[expletive]

Good for them. When the time comes, they're stuck in 2009 Cubs territory as an average team with not much of an outlook.

 

That's the deal with the devil small-market teams make. The Brewers had their run, then the Reds are having theirs. When the Reds peter out, maybe the Pirates will be having theirs.

Thats just your doom boner talking. In your heart, you know the Pirates will never have one.

This one's still looking pretty solid too :/

 

And the Pirates and Brewers probably won't have any good seasons during that time, either.

 

So we tank 3 seasons, then split the division evenly with the Cardinals for the next six.

 

Congratulations, Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer, you just matched Jim Hendry's term.
