Letter to the editor: How about some concessions in the Pirates lineup?

Did anyone see and listen to Bob Nutting’s pre-home opener interview with broadcaster Greg Brown? I sure hope Brown was wearing boots and carrying a shovel. I haven’t heard that many falsehoods and bull cookies since an Alejandro Mayorkas news conference.

Let’s face it: The Pirates are never going anywhere under the current ownership. Nutting spouts all the correct jargon and all the correct promises, but they’re nothing but contrived sound bites to pitch to the media.

I’ve been a Pirates fan since 1954, so it’s a little late for me to change my stripes, but it’s not to late for me to call out an organization whose main interests seem to be the menus at the concession stands. How about a few concessions in the Pirates lineup? Wrong player in centerfield; wrong man at first base; wrong relief in the bullpen; wrong man in the dugout; wrong man in the front office; and the wrong man in the owner’s suite.
