As we embark on a new decade, the writers here at Rum Bunter decided to vote on the top 10 Pittsburgh Pirates players of the 2010s. This was a fun project for the writers to tackle and it led to reminiscing on some great memories. Unfortunately, it also brought up and led to discussion about some not so great memories.

As a reminder, or in case you did not read part one, here is how the voting worked. Each player that received votes received a point total depending on what number they were voted. For example, a 1st place voted awarded a player 10 points. A 2nd place vote award a player 9 points, and so on down the line.
