They DO exist

I checked, the Pirates actually do still exist on this Monday afternoon when pitchers and catchers are closer than ever to reporting, but about as far from anyone's minds as they've ever been.

Not much news on the Pirate front either. The Bucs have decided to invite Andrew McCutchen to camp this spring. I don't see much wrong with that, espcially now that the old coaches are gone. We've also signed Jorge Vasquez to a minor league deal. I won't pretend to know much about him, but Charlie seems to think this could be an encouraging move.

More as I get back into baseball mode.
