Finally

A list of the three best things that have happened to the Pirates this off-season:

  1. Fired Dave Littlefield, Brian Graham, and Ed Creech.
  2. Fired Jim Tracy
  3. Ditched "We Will..."
Great article by Dejan about the ditching of "We Will" as the promotional campaign. I could be wrong, but it sounds to me like the new management team hates that slogan almost as much as we do.

While we're at it, the Bucs also signed TJ Beam yesterday. You can probably guess the profile by now, big guy, hard thrower, serious control issues, etc. etc. Admittedly, this is better than DL's reliever profile which was generally, "Name ends in -less, sucks."
