When it comes to the Pittsburgh Pirates’ 2024 campaign, I want to as always be as cautiously optimistic as possible.
Realistically though, the Pirates have a pretty solid infield, which gives me great optimism that this might be the best the group has looked in some time.
First Base: Let’s get the bad out of the way first
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, I cannot stand the look of our first base position group right now. I was shocked when we traded away Carlos Santana last year, and I'm shocked that the best the Pirates could do to replace him was sign Rowdy Tellez in free-agency.
