May 29 2067: Pitching coach - by Bennett11 on December 20th, 2024
After 15 seasons as our pitching coach, we’ve let 43yr old Adrian Bianchi go to be the manager for the Yubo City Buccaneers. We’ve had many great pitching staffs over the years thanks to him, we wish him the best onward.
35 yr old coach Nolan Barnett will take over, he has 1 season under his belt as a coach last season with a different organization who won 86 games, we are happy to welcome him to our staff.
Oct 22 2064: 1st place finish, playoffs ahead!! - by Bennett11 on June 9th, 2024
The pirates finish with a 95-65 record and win the division for the 2nd time in 3 seasons, our pitching was extremely banged up but nonthless have held up strong. Many young pitchers have stepped up, including Rios, Ramos,Romo, Lang, bagley and Casas. All of which had career years. All star closer Rob Fraser had 50 saves for the first time in his career. The bats stayed hit all year with alaya, ishii, Daley, and Bergeron all playing like the all stars they are. Carl Flynn caught fire in his breakout at the end of the season and Ross, Lopez had great rookie seasons.
Ivan Corley continues to cement his Pittsburgh legacy, and had this to say “ wasn’t easy coming of a 72 win season, but we stayed in the race and persevered through injury woes to come out on top. Everyone played their hearts out over the 162 games we play each season.” “We look forward to Palm Springs in the playoffs.”
The pirates will take on Palm Springs in a best of 7 to decide the division champ, best of luck to our team.
Oct 06 2064: 47 runs in 3 games!!! - by Bennett11 on June 5th, 2024
Pirates continue the dominance and currently lead the division by 6 games with a 86-61record. Carl Flynn had a 8 rbi game in game one of a 3 game series against the Woonsocket prowlers and tallied 7 total hits. SP’s Ramos and Shultz combined for 13 1/3 scoreless in there starts and our bullpen didn’t allow a run until the final game. We won 20-5, 14-0, and 13-11. Utter dominance to separate ourselves from the pack. All of our hitters and pitchers broke out of there slumps in this incredible showing.
Manager Ivan Corley stated “this was definitely our best showing and an incredible way to set the tone as the season winds down. We look to continue this as we close out our season.” Keep up the work and go pirates!!!
Sep 04 2064: Engines running!! - by Bennett11 on May 28th, 2024
After a disappointing 11-20 start the pirates are 60-30 since rehiring Ivan Corley to manage and are currently 71-50 with a 6 1/2 game lead in the division, putting them in the drivers seat to win their second title in 3 seasons. Despite only having 4 true starting pitchers and a revolving door at the 5th spot the pirates haven’t lost consecutive series since the beginning of the season.
CP Robert Fraser a former all star and the teams 27 yr old fireballer cut his era from an 8.6 to a 4.03 and eclipses 37 saves 3 away from 40. Former first round pick and current setup man Bart lang has broken out with a 2.50 ERA in 84 innings as the bullpen as a whole has an ERA of 3.6. MR’s Carl Bagley and Lorenzo Rios both have ERA’s in the 3’s. We have 2 players with over 25 homers 3 with BA above .300 and everything has seemed to be clicking. Nothless credit can be given to 13 yr pitching coach Adrian Banachi and hitting coach Russel Tatum. The pirates hope to continue this dominance and clinch our 3rd title. Keep up the work!!
