The Pittsburgh Pirates have just guaranteed themselves a seventeenth consecutive losing season. The New York Times interviews general manager Neal Huntington ‘91 about the team’s long-term plans.
We feel the impact of the streak. It’s a reality of us doing business. We see it, we feel it, we hear it. But our evaluators and instructors should be insulated from the 17 years. Hopefully, we’re able to continue moving forward to put this team in a position to win for many years, and not try to break the streak one year and then figure something out after that.
