What a great day to start!
Well if you haven't heard already the Pittsburgh Pirates have continued the dismantling of their major league roster in order to continue the pursuit of the future. For the last 16 years the future was something that rested on the shoulders of a select two or three players that were supposed to change the dismal fate of the franchise. Neil Huntington is finally aiming to change our outlook on such a hopeless perspective. His philosophy is one of the team filling up the system with potential talent and increase the chances of the prospects developing into not just major league talent, but championship talent. Think of Neil Huntington as the anti-Dave Littlefield. Better yet, think of of all of these recent trades as a collection of anti-Matt Morris trades. The Pirates are no longer trying to plug gaps in their lineup with cast-offs like Burnitz and Randa(the second time around), but now hope that an abundance of young talent will eventually fill all positions more than adequately. When will this happen? Not any time soon. Most of these players that have been acquired are not projected to be major league ready in anywhere from two to five years. So hold tight Pirate fans, things are changing.
