That’s why it’s hard pressed to get upset, especially when most of us in here have witnessed 5 world championships in our lifetime.

The pirates are bad for the same reason the A’s and marlins are bad. The owner refuses to spend any money whatsoever on the roster or staff. The 1990-92 pirates won 3 straight division titles in an era where that sent you straight to the NLCS with Barry Bonds, Bobby Bonilla, a ton of great pitching, and Jim Leyland managing them. A team loaded with talent that they gutted purely to save money to the point that Leyland had to go off on them behind the scenes just to keep them from trading Barry during the 1992 season before he hit free agency. Didn’t even try to convince him to stay once he hit the market.

You can get away with it in a small market like Pittsburgh or Miami but the only way to get away with it in a big market is if the commissioner is in on it like how selig and manfred actively facilitated the destruction of baseball in Oakland. If the Yankees were running out a $50 million payroll every spring, letting their best players walk in free agency on an annual basis, not investing in their front office at all, and crying poverty all the way through then you’d see a building with similar attendance as in Miami or Oakland which before long would lead to the situation coming to a head. The league office would eventually have to tell said owner to either spend big or sell the team. Can’t have a bottom 5 payroll every year when you operate in New York. The league knows there’s no way to get away with that.
