The Pittsburgh Pirates are 73-83. Where are they in the latest MLB power rankings?
The Pittsburgh Pirates went 2-5 this week, bringing their record on the season to 73-83.
Let’s take a look at where they are ranked in power rankings across the internet:
It was Paul Skenes Arrival Season, which it sure seems that’s how 2024 will forever be remembered. Now it’s up to the Pirates to make sure they surround him with the support he needs and deserves. They’ve got something special in Pittsburgh. Now we must see what they’ll do with it.
Bleacher Report, Joel Reuter: 24
The Pirates are now 18-31 dating back to July 31, but at least they got 11 innings of one-run ball from Paul Skenes last week. His 1.99 ERA is the lowest for a rookie starter ever in the live-ball era.
CBS Sports, Matt Snyder: 24, down 1
There were several glimpses of hope, but the Pirates appear headed for another last-place finish in the NL Central. In the 31 years of the division’s existence, the Pirates have finished last 12 times. This season would be 13.
