Please excuse the cynicism if you are one of the few people that does not realize the Pittsburgh Pirates are a joke. At this point though I am sure everyone laughs at the Pirates. With that being said they have done 3 things right this summer. They signed their top 2 picks Jameson Taillon and Stetson Allie. They actually paid them its a miracle. Now they have made an enormous move, by Pirates standards, signing 16 year old Mexican pitching sensation Luis Heredia. At least he says thats his name. He apparently throws a 93 mph fastball and has more pitches than I can make up. He is 6'6" 185 pounds. Yes his birth certificate is probably fudged and he is actually 20 years old, but who cares the Pirates got a guy that the Yankees wanted.
So yes every Pirates fan can be excited for the next year or two. However I do hope everyone remembers the Pirates past with guys like Bay, Mcclouth, Schmidt and so on. Do not get to attached Heredia will be a Yankee and Taillon will be in Boston or vice versa. The only faith I have in the Pirates is they will do everything in their power to fail.
