Leave it to Skenes

2024-07-13T11:36:00.000-07:00

He's done it again

Paul Skenes continues to thrill Pirates fans with his amazingness. Thursday he threw 7 no hit innings and a career high 11 strikeouts to help the Buccos whoop the Brewers 1- zip.

The should have been all-star, Holder man, whiffed 3 Brewski players and Aroldis finished them off. Skenes for President!

Gonzod

2024-07-13T11:25:00.000-07:00

Yesterday, the Gonzalez brothers teamed up to take care of the White Sox. They had some help, but it was mostly them. Marco came back from an arm injury to start his first game since. He pitched 5 quality innings, giving up only 1 run.

Nick Gonzo had a nice RBI double, then came home to score on a Hayes RBI.

The Pirates defense also contributed three nice double plays. Welcome back to David Bednar. You were missed.

I Don't Want Him

2024-07-06T08:33:00.000-07:00

This guy has been in the headlines of every person that has done a podcast or wrote an article about the Pittsburgh Steelers for the last couple of months. Funny thing is he's not on the Steelers and he's getting 100% more publicity than any Steeler at his position. He is the most annoying part of this off-season and now I just don't want him.

It all started when the Steelers traded Diontae Johnson to the Panthers. That gave anyone that covers the Steelers or NFL a license to name every WR in the NFL a possible candidate to be traded to the Steelers to be their number 1, 1B, or 2 Wide Receiver. They have done a fantastic job of naming all the WRs in the league. There's a couple with San Francisco, one with Seattle, one with Buffalo, one with Denver, one with Washington, and many assorted others.

One guy just keeps popping back up over and over and over again, though. Brandon Aiyuk. He apparently wants 30 million a year, and I don't think the Niners want to pay him 30 millions a year. He's caused all kind of havoc saying he wants to stay with San Fran, but at the same time saying, or making it known he wants 30 million. He is under contract for this year so he wants to extend that.

The Steelers do have salary cap space, around $16 million, but I can't see them paying a receiver that much.

Also, he may be a number one receiver, but he's not proven he can do that. Meanwhile, we have another guy already on the team that could be asking for a lot of cash next year. Pickens is still under contract this year and next, but if they want to keep him they might want to extend him before next season, because WR money is going up. Or, they can simply do what San Fran and Green Bay do and draft on or two a year. Seems like a smart thing to do with these prices. Then, at the end of the 3rd year try to find a buyer to give a draft pick or two.

I really do want Aiyuk despite the title of this article because he's a proven receiver. Maybe not a 1, but he's shown that he's at least a 2 and that's what the Steelers need. I'd really like to keep our first round pick next year and get a receiver then or a D line stud with it. Whether Cam stays after this year or not we still need a replacement soon.

Are We at Wrigley?

2024-07-06T07:54:00.000-07:00

If I didn't see all the PNC Park signs, I would have thought the Pirates were at Wrigley and the wind was blowing out yesterday, but only for the Pirates. The Pirates had one of those nights where the offense was on fire. It took a few innings before the magic started, but there was so many fireworks yesterday that they ran out of fireworks. They literally ran out of fireworks because the Buccos had 7, count em, 7 home runs.

Bryan Reynolds had 2, including a grand salami. Rowdy Tellez had 2, including a grand salami. Jack Jack hopefully is getting his swing groove on, and he got one. Yasmani Grandal figured into the mix with one. The light hitting Michael Taylor went 4-4 and had a homer. Yep, that is 7.

The other part of the story is the pitcher, though. Usually, the starter of the night is the story. Well, and he still was as big a part of the story as the 7 Home Runs and offensive explosion, but Paul Skenes was his usual self and struck out 8 over 7 innings. Obviously, he could have easily finished the game. Let's do everything we can to keep those innings down as much as possible.

Andy Van Slyke

2024-07-03T01:38:00.000-07:00

One good thing to come from the Cardinals, Andy Van Slyke. Usually, when going to games back then I would be in the stands behind Center Field. Between innings and plays Van Slyke would always look up in the stands. I, of course, would be waving at him as if he were searching for me. He never saw me and waved back though.

Jim Leyland

2024-07-01T20:13:00.000-07:00

Despite the fact he didn't get a great Pirates team to the World Series, he is one of the great managers in Pirates history. Wish we could find a baseball mastermind like him to coach this team.

Spring training question

2024-07-01T20:08:00.000-07:00

How many pitchers will the Pirates go through in the number 4 spot after Bailey Falters.

Now

Bailey is the one to knock off the Braves. Yea, he had too many walks, but he held them off. I know Skenes should have won too, But Falter didn't falter. One reclamation project that's paying dividends. Rowdy hit a HR, but he needs a bunch of them to make up for the first 2 months. Hopefully Cruz starts putting some out regularly too.

Next up for the Pirates:

2024-07-01T20:07:00.000-07:00

St. Louie

We got em in runs, walks, and strikeouts and everyone knows you just need to get more runs than the other team to beat them so we should win the series.

It's Bobby Bo Day!

2024-07-01T20:03:00.000-07:00

This guy is one of many favorite Pirates players. It was a sad day for me when he left the Pirates. Again, the Pirates have made many mistakes over the years. But the Mets are the ones that gave Bobby financial security with this almost never ending contract. Back before the internet, you had to check the newspaper for stats. I'd check every day to see where Bobby, Barry(the Pirates version) and Andy stood in Home Runs and RBIs.

It's Skenes Day!

2024-06-05T11:03:00.000-07:00

Yes, Mr. Skenes will be on the mound today! Go Skenes, and Buccos!

Return of Cam

2024-06-05T10:52:00.000-07:00

Yesterday Cam Heyward returned to action with the Steelers after sitting out of OTAs to that point.

Today Cam Sutton is coming back after signing a one-year contract to return. If we could add more Cams, might as well. They seem to play well here.

Russ - Part 1

2024-06-02T22:00:00.000-07:00

It's Russ vs. Justin. The battle to the end, the battle to end all battles, the showdown. The only thing about it is, this doesn't seem like a war between the two. It seems like a chance to start over for each of them. Granted, Russ is nearing the end of his career and starting over would give him another few years. Justin, on the other hand, still has a long career left. It could be as a starter if he seizes the moment or it could be as a backup if his play is mediocre. You can last a looooonnnngggg time in this league as a backup going from team to team.

Let's take a look and see how Russ got to this point. Russ is the elder statesman of this qb battle. He is originally from Richmond, Virginia. He was a 2-star recruit and ended up going to N.C. State to play football and baseball for the Wolfpack. He played at N.C. State from 2008 to 2010.

In 2008 he won the QB job after splitting time with 2 other QBs. That season he finished with 150 of 275 completions for 1,955 yards and 17 TDs. In 2009 he was on the All-ACC preseason team. He passed for 3,027 yards with 31 tds and 11 ints. on 224 of 378 passes. In 2010 he went 308 for 527 with 28 tds and 14 ints. He also had 388, 260, and 435 rushing yards in those years. I'd say he was a little bit mobile and a lot of an athlete.

After the 2010 season he decided to report to the Colorado Rockies Spring Training. Seems as though his N.C. State coach didn't agree with his multisport aspirations and there was a parting of the ways. After some interest from Wilson to entering the NFL draft, but little interest from the NFL, Russ committed to Wisconsin for the 2011 season, and it seems like it was a good choice for him. He passed for 225 of 309 with 33 tds and 4 ints and threw in 338 rushing yards for good measure. He was named All Big Ten and won the award for best Big 10 QB named after two pretty good qbs, Griese and Brees. He then led the Badgers to the Big 10 Championship game and then the Rose Bowl. He also managed to set the FBS season record for pass efficiency and was named 3rd team All American.

That all led to the next logical step in a football player's progression, the NFL. He had proven himself in college. He was only lacking in one category to make him a high draft pick. This has not been mentioned previously in this story, but Russ is only 5-10 and 5/8. Those NFL teams love the prototypical 6-4 or bigger qb with the big gun that can throw darts(lol, Jeff). Unfortunately for Russ, he lacked the stature. If he was a few inches taller he probably would have been a second rounder at the least.

The draft came around and the "experts" projected him as a mid-draft selection. It seems that he fell into a perfect situation for himself when Pete Carroll and the Seattle Seahawks decided to take him in the third round of the draft. The "draft experts" laughed at the usage of a 3rd rounder for Wilson. He was too short to be successful in the NFL. They basically didn't like several other of the Seahawks picks also. It wasn't just Russ. The Seahawks had also signed another qb that everybody assumed would end up as the starter. Matt Flynn had a few good games in Green Bay backing up Aaron Rodgers the year before and Seattle signed him to a free agent contract.

Russ competed with Flynn and Tarvaris Jackson to start and ended up winning that battle. It turns out that Carroll either got lucky selecting Russ or he actually saw something in him that told him that Russ wasn't just a short guy that was good in college. He performed very well in his first year, garnering player of the week honors, setting a record for rookie qb rating, and taking his team to the playoffs. The Seahawks ultimately lost in the playoffs in 2012, but the next year Russ would show his talent even further.

In 2013 Russ continued his excellence and he and the Seahawks dominated the Denver Broncos and claimed the championship of the NFL. He finished with 26 tds, nine ints and a 101.2 qb rating. In the Super Bowl he passed for 206 yards and 2 touchdowns.

In 2014 Wilson took the Seahawks back to the postseason and again went to the Super Bowl. He was the first NFL qb to reach the Super Bowl in 2 of his first 3 seasons. The Seahawks were in position to win the game but a controversial decision to pass instead of run the ball near the end of the game ended unsuccessfully.

Wilson continued to be successful with the Seahawks in 2015. In July he signed 4 year, 87.6 million dollar contract with the Seahawks. He broke several Seahawk records in the season, including passing yards, tds, and qb rating. The Seahawks were not able to return to the NFC Championship though. Despite an amazing comeback attempt they were stopped by the Carolina Panthers.

In 2016 Wilson continued his aerial attack, throwing for a career high 4,219 yards. He did suffer injuries that year that seemed to cause his vaunted mobility to suffer. The Seahawks fell to the eventual NFC champ Atlanta Falcons in a divisional round game ending their season.

Russ vs. Justin

2024-05-27T22:00:00.000-07:00

There is a very interesting battle? going on this preseason in the quarterback room of the Pittsburgh Steelers. After the Stillers emptied out their qb shelf from last year, they went hunting for some new talent to restock.

My friend kept saying they were going to go after Russell Wilson. Many time he said that. That was when we still had that KP8 guy. I said, no way, don't want him. He was miserable in Denver and caused all kinds of distractions for the team. Plus, he has his own version of Taylor Swift to cause more distraction off the field. I heard so many other people try to guess what was going to happen in the qb room too. Every qb imaginable was coming to the Burgh. Cousins, he's definitely coming to Pittsburgh. Russ, was a rumor. Fields, was a rumor. At this point I don't even remember the other 50. But, if they were a free agent and had an arm they were coming.

Then, the first domino fell. Trubisky got let go. This should not have been a shock to anyone because of how he has played since arriving, and really since coming to the league. He's not an NFL starter. Really, he didn't even prove he's a quality backup in his time in Pittsburgh. Buffalo seemed to get something out of him when he was there, so he went shuffling of to Buffalo again. I don't think too many people were upset about his departure from Pittsburgh. He got a shot and couldn't hold off KP8.

Then, the next domino fell. QB3/2/1? Mason Rudolph. After Mason proved that he could at least come in and win a few games in relief, there seemed to be interest by the Steelers and him to resign him for some kind of contract. I actually would have liked to have seen that. Firstly, I'm shocked to see Mike Tomlin or whoever's decision it was, decided to give Mason a chance once Kenny was injured. I'm not going to say I knew all along that Mason was going to ride in and save the season. The thought did occur to me in early in the season. What if Kenny and Mitch were injured and Mason had to come in and play. Then, what if he actually played his butt off and won games decisively. Then, what if Kenny and Mitch didn't win games decisively. What a conundrum that would be. What made the whole thing great is that Rudolph won games around Christmas and New Year. All those reindeer that wouldn't let him join their games were hiding. Mason put up a good fight and proved he's a player and ended up signing a contract with the Titans. Seems like a fresh start is a good thing for him.

Next Domino, I get a text and it said they traded Kenny. Truthfully, this is so after the fact that I don't know if the order was Mason leaves, Russ signs or Russ signs and Mason leaves. I'm just going with Mason leaving first. Maybe a few people will comment on the article if I write it wrong. Anyway, so Mason leaves, Russ signs and then the shocker. KP8 apparently doesn't want to compete with Russ for "Pole Position." If Mike T. came to me and said, uh yeah, Kenny, Russ is in Pole Position and you're number 2, I'd have to say what is this a video game or formula one race. I like most of coaches Tomlinisms, but this one annoys me for some reason. Maybe because it just sounds like he went to Kenny and took the whole situation very casually and said he was going to be sucking Russ's exhaust this year. So, Kenny, in his wisdom said I'd rather not do that and to avoid having a hostage on the team (another Tomlinism), they sent him to the lesser-known Pennsylvania team. Guess what he's going to do there. Suck on the exhaust of another qb in Pole Position. Kenny, I'm confused, what did you gain?

So, Kenny is now gone, and Mason is gone, and Mitch is gone, but now we have Russ. Then, the next domino fell. The only thing is this domino was all the way in Chicago. The Bears, who have such a rich history of qbs decided they were going to start over instead of paying their current qb. They decided, with the number one draft pick in hand, to go with Caleb Williams. He talks a big game but hasn't done much to back it up. Well, he'll get his chance with the Bears and their rich qb tradition. They actually acquired a few playmakers for him. That is something they did not do for their previous qb. So, since they were getting Mr. Williams with the number one pick, they did not want competition for the Pole Position(lol), and all of a sudden Justin Fields is free to move on with a year left on his contract and a possible option year. The rumor is that the Bears had multiple offers for Fields, but took the lesser Steelers offer because he wanted to go to Pittsburgh. What a nice team. The same nice team that didn't do anything to help Justin with weapons after they stuck him in there. Don't know if I'm buying what they're selling, but ok.

So, next domino, the Steelers take Fields off the Bears hands for a 6th rounder/4th if he starts half the games this year. Can you say steal. I watched Fields in Columbus at Ohio State. He can play a lot better than what he showed in Chicago. Of course, many college stars have failed miserably in the NFL, but it doesn't seem like he has had a legitimate chance to show what he can do. He nearly set the qb season rushing record one year. I don't have any method to measure the ability to send passes, but I'm pretty confident he can get his passes to receivers a little faster than the floaters Kenny was sending. Honestly, I was thrilled that they got Justin Fields and for a 6th rounder. Thank you, Omar. I knew that one of the things the Bears were taking into consideration when deciding whether to keep Fields or draft Williams was whether they wanted to utilize his 5th year option or not. Once they traded him to Pittsburgh that fell on the Steelers to decide. I liked him at OSU but have not been very high on him with the Bears. Alot of that was because he was with the Bears. As soon as the Steelers picked him up I was sure they'd pick up the option and he'd be their qb of the future.

The more I heard from anyone with an opinion, the less sure I got that the option would be picked up and sure enough there wasn't even a story about it the deadline day. No mention of it whatsoever. Of course, everybody's attention was on whether they'd pick up Najee Harris's option, which they also didn't.

The Steelers restocked qb room, now includes Mr. Pole Position, Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, and the third guy. I've already got his name wrong before and I'm not wasting my time looking it up now. The top two are all that matter anyway. Russ has a one-year contract for a million dollars or something like that because he's also still being paid many millions by the Broncos. Because Justin Fields 5th year option was declined, he also is on a one year contract. So, if Russ has a good year, he's going to want to get paid significantly more to keep playing. If Russ doesn't play well, and Justin comes in and plays well, he's going to want significantly more than this year. So, unless the Steelers pick one of them in preseason and give them more money, we're going through this whole qb extravaganza again next year.

It's that day :)

Today's Young Buc is?

2022-06-21T22:30:00.000-07:00

Gotta love it when the scores of the last 2 games are 12-1 and 7-1. I just wish we could do that against the Reds and Brewers. I think we just need to keep calling up guys from the minors, because they just keep coming through in Pittsburgh. Roansy Contreras kept the Cubs offense mostly in check tonight and one of yesterday's young contributors, Bligh Madris smacked his first Major League Home Run. You know, I think Captain Bligh might have turned Pirate after his crew mutinied against him, so it makes perfect sense that Bligh is a Pirate. Don't go fact checking that one though. Anyway, Bligh is a Pittsburgh Pirate and he's been invaluable the last 2 games. So keep it up Cap'n.

Daniel Vogelbach just looks like he should be clearing a path for Najee Harris. He is one tough looking baseball player. He can hit too, despite what his average says. He went 2 for 2 with a couple RBIs and threw in a few walks for good measure.

Keep it going Bucs.

Oneil Cruz Day

2022-06-21T21:10:00.003-07:00

Well, Father's Day young Buc was Jack Suwinsky with his 3 homers, including a walk off. Then yesterday there were more young Buc sightings. O'Neil Cruz showed up with his bat and finished 2 of 5 with 4 RBIs. In the 3rd inning he put on a little show with his arm. A ball was hit to the third base side of him. It wasn't hit exceptionally and wasn't a difficult play, but what followed made you think maybe the outfield isn't a bad place for him. He backhanded it easily, double clutched as he moved toward first base and uncorked a fireball to Michael Chavis at first. Chavis extended and easily made the play, but I'm wondering if he expected the ball to drill a hole in his glove when it was released. Hopefully he has practiced with Cruz and knew that it was a possibility. The throw was clocked at 96.7 mph.

As I said about Jack Suwinski the other day, I hope his potential is as good as the flashes of talent he's shown in his highlights and I hope they find a spot where he is comfortable.

It also didn't escape my attention that JT Brubaker was finally able to put together a win and a scoreless 6 innings. It didn't hurt that the offense scored 12 runs too. It's a little easier to pitch with some offensive help.

I'm a little disappointed in Jack Suwinsky. C'mon Jack, I expected at least 1 HR after the hat trick.

Yet another Bucco made his Major League debut in the game in pretty impressive fashion, Bligh Madris. He contributed 3 hits, 2 RBIs and a stolen base. Quite a debut, what's he going to do next? hit 3 home runs in a game. We can only hope.

The Pittsburgh Pirates

2022-06-21T20:17:00.001-07:00

SUWINSKY!

2022-06-20T17:58:00.005-07:00

One thing I love about sports is you get to watch a group of players become a team and hopefully succeed with each other. You get to know the players and their strengths and weaknesses. You hope that players will develop and be stars. As a fan of the Pirates it seems like they always have some promising players but they have had huge problems developing any talent to the point where we have superstars.

Right now we have Bryan Reynolds, and Ke'Bryan Hayes. They both have provided the leather and Reynolds has hit for average and power, but it seems like there's another level to hit before he's considered one of the best in the game. He's young though and maybe it will happen at some point. Hayes will definitely provide the defense that we need from the hot corner, but he hasn't been an offensive machine that you want from a third baseman. Again, though, these guys are still young and maybe it will happen soon.

The reason I'm talking about this is the next group of hopefuls have been making appearances in the field and at the plate. The latest of which provided the fireworks during the game. Jack Suwinski picked Father's day with his Dad present at the game to give a show at the plate. He smacked 3 home runs with the last one being a walk off shot in the 9th to finish things off. He even walked on his other plate appearance. Pretty good Father's day present, I'd say. He's now tied with Reynolds for the home run lead for the Pirates. There are other players I'm looking forward to see grow with the Pirates, but for now Suwinski was the man for one night early in this season and gives us some hope that the new guys have potential to achieve something in this league.

Just a thought

2022-06-16T17:47:00.001-07:00

At some point in every game, they should play the clip of Captain Kirk yelling Khaaaaannnnnnn. I just don't know the scenario it would be in. Omar might not appreciate it though, so let's put that on the backburner til the time is right.

Have the Pirates already Peaked This Year?

2022-06-16T17:25:00.002-07:00

Back on June 6 I was looking at the standings and complaining to myself that the Buccos were still 4 under .500 despite the fact that they were looking decent and making the Dodgers look like they were in the cellar instead of vice versa(I know they're not quite in the cellar).  It was nice while it was going on and it was nice to sweep a series and end that drought that lasted through last season and part of the season before.  Reality is this is a team of promising young players and some older players that are closer to AAA caliber than Major League caliber.   That short bit of success does give us a taste of what is expected of every team, but not familiar to the Pirates.  After a 9-game losing streak, they're sitting 10 games under .500.  Hopefully they are not done with sweeps and successes for the season.  We can look forward to watching Bryan Reynolds bat and glove and KeBryan's golden glove.  There's also a minor league with talent scattered.  I think everybody is looking forward to a 6'7" shortstop/position tbd player to arrive and show off his bat.  As they say, there's always next year.

Let the Omar Khan Era Begin

2022-06-15T18:40:00.001-07:00

Big news today in The Burgh. Omar Khan has officially put his stamp on the beginning of his career as the Steelers General Manager. Well, that's not actually the blockbuster news from today with the Steelers. It could be a co-story though.

The real news is that our All-Pro safety has signed a new contract or contract extension for another 4 years at around $18 mil per year according to sources with a bunch of that being guaranteed cash.

I was pretty surprised by the timing of this.  I thought it would go similar to TJs contract timeline.  It is good to have it taken care of though.  Good start Mr. Khan, now have your team find a hidden gem to replace that hole on the d line so we can count on our rushing defense again.

Stephon Tuitt

2022-06-08T13:12:00.003-07:00

Last year around training camp for the season Stephon Tuitt’s brother was the victim of a hit and run and lost his life. Stephon was obviously and understandably devastated. There was little to no information from the team or Tuitt about his plans for the season. There was a lot of speculation that he’d be back, but he never did return. There were also a lot of rumors about a knee injury and from listening to DK Pittsburgh Sports he had to have fluid drained from the knee regularly. But, again, there was no concrete source as to whether he was injured or just the fact that he couldn’t mentally because of his loss. Then came the current season. The Steelers were last in rushing defense and having Tuitt back would be a big step in improving that number. Last week, though, we found out that he had decided it was time to retire. You can look at this any way you want, but to me, he decided to call it quits for a number of reasons. He lost his brother, who he was very close to. That is reason enough for anyone to decide that family should be their priority and he should spend time with them. Also, he did have knee problems. Whether it affected him playing or not last year will probably only be known to him and the team. He wouldn’t be the first to leave the game mostly healthy. During his time off, he finished his studies at Notre Dame and earned a degree. I doubt he was hurting financially or even have trouble finding a job if he stayed in Pittsburgh but having a degree would help him move to the next step in his life. Putting myself into his shoes these are all very good reasons to call it a career. I can understand it and I’m sure most fans can too. That doesn’t mean that we wouldn’t like to see Stephon pushing through opponents' lines, stuffing running backs and smashing quarterbacks this year. It just means I understand. Good luck to you Stephon.

Steel scraps 6-8-22

2022-06-08T13:11:00.001-07:00

When I started up this site and later on Facebook page, I could not get enough information about the Steelers and Pirates and Pens. I read every article I could find no matter how factual the stories were or how high the quality the writing was. I could not find enough material. That was about 10 years ago. So, I started writing my own stuff. It wasn’t breaking news or anything because I’m sitting in the stadiums and arenas watching every game, but I summarized what I saw and put my own spin on that. Then, all the social media kicked in and there was info overload. If you wanted to read about the Steel City teams there was no shortage of articles and the last several years podcasts and videocasts.

If I wanted to, I could probably listen to someone’s take on these teams every waking hour. If you look at the article history, I pretty much stopped writing stories for years. There was so much stuff out there I didn’t need to add my two cents in my own site. I could comment in 100 different places. I actually didn’t even visit the site for a couple years and was surprised that it didn’t get shut down because of inactivity. Whenever I did go there it was still active including about a month ago. There’s still plenty of sources of commentary and information about my favorite teams, but I decided to add my 2 cents again. Can’t say it’s going to be regular, so don’t set your alarm by it, but I’m going to call my random musings Steel scraps. So, check it out and tell me what you think.
