    good luck

    Bucs have been WAAAAYYY over achieving this first quarter of the season. with Marte and Harrison on DL and their lack of real talent.

    there is ALOT of money to be made on fading them blindly from here until season's end.

    but they are going to win somedays

    hopefully today is one of those days

        that's my way of saying, I don't like betting the pirates going forward at all, But obviously if someone picks their spots there are games they will win. But I think the market has over adjusted and you'll be paying more juice now for a team that is in actuality a sub .500 type team but getting a good amount of luck early on. while playing a shit schedule

        all that being said, I think this actually is a decent spot to take them because their only consistent (and wildly under-rated still) starter is pitching today. Trevor Williams has quietly become a very very good pitcher that last 12 months.


        but yeah you always have to keep in mind, that in baseball the worst of the worst will win 60 times a year and the best of the best will lose 60 times a year.

            Understood, but...

            Their pitching staff looks pretty good (13th in the entire major leagues) and they are (6th) in team batting..

                          these Pirates might lose 17 out of next 20


                          get on the fade train

                              This one stung. Ruined what would have been the end of a fantastic week. Luckily golden st helped with the brunt of this loss, but I shouldn't be betting this much on a baseball game in May. Shame on me
