Pittsburgh Pirates Gerrit Cole Scouting Report Video from ESPN

AUTHOR: | IN: Pittsburgh Pirates | COMMENTS: None Yet

Could Pittsburgh Pirates top pick Gerrit Cole be in the big leagues in 2012?  We don’t think so. In fact, we would say there is virtually no chance Cole reaches the majors next season. But it is mentioned by Jason Grey as a possiblity in this video of Cole working in his first game in the Arizona Fall League. Grey says 2013 is more likely. We can only pray that Cole gets his mechanics together and piles up some innings this fall. Clipped from: espn.go.com (share this clip)  Jason Grey

Gerrit Cole had an impressive first inning the other day.  AZBF captured the action for all of us Pittsburgh Pirates fans. It’s fastball city from Cole which is understandable. It’s also understandable why he gets knocked out in the third. Wow–big crowd.

Pirates Owner Bob Nutting Wants Us to Believe

AUTHOR: | IN: Pittsburgh Pirates | COMMENTS: None Yet

“What we need is to have everyone believing in what we’re doing, the moves we’re making,” Bob Nutting after firing David Littlefield in September 2007.   The quote was from several years ago, and yet four years later the moves the Pittsburgh Pirates make still have people not believing in the team.
