USA Today's Pirates Outlook
By Mel Antonen, USA TODAY
BRADENTON, Fla. — In two seasons, outfielder Jason Bay has been the National League rookie of the year, hit better than .300 and made an All-Star team.
He figures it's time to have a winning season.
"It's a fun time to be a Pittsburgh Pirate," Bay says. "It's a different feel from the last few years. This year we are banking on guys with a big-league track record instead of kids trying to do extraordinary things."
Optimism is flowing because the Pirates, whose last winning record was in 1992 when they won the NL East in the two-division format, have a promising young rotation and a strong bullpen.
