By mondesishouse(noreply@blogger.com) The Pirates are reportedly getting $80 million from MLB. And that's before tickets, parking, or concessions. Maybe they could use some of that Major League moolah to bring back Jason Bay? No? How about Derek Bell, strictly for nostalgic/comedic purposes only? [Bob Smizik Blog]

By Dejan Kovacevic I suppose one could point out here that the Pirates also had dramatic victories -- even more dramatic -- to open their previous two seasons, from Xavier Nady and Jason Bay going deep in extras in Houston, to another set of extras last year in Atlanta. But then, someone would point out that, sa...

By Charlie At the time, it looked like the Pirates were getting a starting third baseman who was available only because the flighty, fickle Dodgers were completely uninterested in him; the Dodgers messed with him in pretty much every possible way while he was trying to break in. So the Pirates were ge...

By Charlie The Pirates' offense, led by a resurgent Jason Bay and somewhat surprising years from Xavier Nady, Nate McLouth and Ryan Doumit, hit well for the first few months of 2008 despite receiving little help from Adam LaRoche or Freddy Sanchez. You might think that the Pirates could have sculpte...

By Matt Bandi I was very high on this trade when it was made, and I still feel pretty good about it. This deal will come down to LaRoche’s performance. If he starts producing the way that his minor league numbers indicate that he should, this trade will be a huge win for the Pirates. If his OPS remains below .600,...

Now that it has been about six weeks since the Pirates traded Xavier Nady, Damaso Marte and Jason Bay, let’s take a look back at how each of the players involved have performed with their new teams. Today we take a look at the deal that sent Nady and Marte to the Yankees in exchange for Jose Tabat...

By Al Chicago Cubs Pittsburgh Pirates As for Z, he seems back on track after his last outing. He's 6-1, 3.47 in 11 career starts at PNC Park, including this May 23 game, which, oddly, had the same score as last night's. Jason Bay used to hit Z real well, but he's with the Red Sox now. The only current Pirat...

By mondesishouse(noreply@blogger.com) In return for Manny, the Marlins would send the Pirates OF Jeremy Hermida and a package of prospects, rumored to include 21-year-old right-handed starter Ryan Tucker and Low-A slugger Mike Stanton.And for their part in the deal, the Pirates would finally part ways with Jason Bay (shown b...

The biggest names that changed cities on deadline day made some immediate impact through the weekend. Manny Ramirez predictably went yard in Los Angeles, Jason Bay busted out the big stick and defense at Fenway, Mark Teixeira clutched up for the Halos, Xavier Nady dropped a six-RBI game a...

By Matt Bandi Good luck, Jason Bay. You have given this team and this city more than we ever expected. You have earned the chance to play for a ring, and I look forward to watching you play for that opportunity in October. At some point early in 2007, I realized the Pirates needed to trade Jason Bay sooner rathe...

By Charlie You're missing Jason Bay, who's on the trade market and is plainly more coveted than either of these players. Both [Nady and Marte] would be thrilled to leave Pittsburgh to join a pennant race. And Tabata, compared by Pirates first baseman Doug Mientkiewicz to a young Manny Ramirez, offers...

By Randy Linville No idea why, but John Russell pulled Jason Bay, Freddy Sanchez and Nate McLouth mid-game. I’m sure it wasn’t a trade, but I’m not at all sure what he was thinking. Steve Pearce was called up, started and had one hit. Freddy was 0-2 when he was pulled.

By Charlie P- Ken Rosenthal defends the Bucs: One executive after another has been critical of the Pirates' high asking prices for players such as outfielders Jason Bay and Xavier Nady, shortstop Jack Wilson and left-hander Damaso Marte.

By Charlie The Pirates could be a contender in '09--if they keep all the hitters who have been so productive for them this season, and those hitters continue to be good, and some of their pitchers rebound, and they make some shrewd moves to shore up the pitching staff. But then Jason Bay and Xavier Nady...

By Randy Linville In five career starts against the Buccos, Hill is 2-1 with a 3.62 ERA. The Pirates on this year’s team have not done much against Hill. Their batting average as a group is .218. Jose Bautista is 0-13 and Jason Bay is 0-11. Only Ronny Paulino (6-13 with a dinger) has done much with Hill.

By Pirate Blues Hopefully Freddy Sanchez is healthy this year or Jason Bay picks up his game because the lack of OBP from the #3 hitter last year killed us. Since the National League Central Division teams have pretty much set their rotations for 2008 other than a late big deal or two, I thought it was time to t...

By Matt Bandi Overall, the Pirates outfield simply looked bad in 2007. Balls were not caught, throws were feeble, and the players occasionally looked lost while roaming the grass. Jason Bay, an above average leftfielder when he joined the team, has seen his skills decline to the point that he is an occas...

John Maine hit a two-run homer and struck out seven to lead the New York Mets to an 8-4 win over the woeful Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night. Maine (11-5) won for the first time since the All-Star break, allowing an RBI double to Xavier Nady, a solo homer to Jason Bay in the fourth, and three o...
