Photos From the First Workouts at Pirate City

Published:

The Pirates opened their workouts today at Pirate City with pretty close to a full house. Even though it was officially just “pitchers and catchers,” probably a large majority of the position players were there, too. That included Bryan Reynolds, who apparently isn’t “quitting” on the Pirates, as some folks seemed to think.

“I’m still here.”

I don’t have any sort of count, but of the position players I probably would have noticed had they been there, the only two I didn’t see were Andrew McCutchen and Ji-Man Choi.  Of course, that doesn’t mean they weren’t there, just probably not on the field.

Some guys are just hard to miss

If you’re wondering about fan access, at least for today it was identical to pre-pandemic times, i.e., the central area around the tower was open.

Having followed the Pirates fanatically since 1965, Wilbur Miller is one of the fast-dwindling number of fans who’ve actually seen good Pirate teams. He’s even seen Hall-of-Fame Pirates who didn’t get traded mid-career, if you can imagine such a thing. His first in-person game was a 5-4, 11-inning win at Forbes Field over Milwaukee (no, not that one). He’s been writing about the Pirates at various locations online for over 20 years. It has its frustrations, but it’s certainly more cathartic than writing legal stuff. Wilbur is retired and now lives in Bradenton with his wife and three temperamental cats.
