Yesterday, the Philadelphia Phillies did something that many fans thought would never happen: they declined Andrew McCutchen’s option for 2022, making him a free agent.
Many Pittsburgh Pirates fans, including some of us here at Bucs Dugout, quickly took to social media to campaign for them to bring back the man who single handedly revitalized baseball in the Steel City.
But among the positive tweets, there were some fans who thought it would be a wasted move on the Pirates’ end.
Also, friends…We do not need Andrew McCutchen.
