Pittsburgh Pirates History
The Pittsburgh Pirates, one of Major League Baseball’s oldest franchises, were established in 1881 as part of the American Association before joining the National League in 1887. Originally known as the Pittsburgh Alleghenys, the team adopted the “Pirates” moniker in 1891 after controversially acquiring a player from another team, which led to accusations of “piratical” behavior. The Pirates quickly became one of baseball’s most successful teams in the early 20th century, capturing their first World Series title in 1909, led by legendary shortstop Honus Wagner, one of the game’s all-time greats. Wagner’s era set the stage for a long-standing tradition of talent and tenacity.
The Pirates’ golden era came in the 1960s and 1970s, marked by two more World Series victories. The team won the 1960 World Series in dramatic fashion with Bill Mazeroski’s iconic walk-off home run in Game 7 against the New York Yankees, a moment still celebrated as one of the greatest in baseball history. The 1970s brought another World Series title in 1971, thanks to stars like Roberto Clemente, who became a cultural and athletic icon, and Willie Stargell, whose leadership helped Pittsburgh to a second title in 1979. Clemente, known for his humanitarian efforts as well as his on-field achievements, tragically died in a plane crash in 1972 while delivering aid to earthquake victims in Nicaragua.
The modern era has seen its share of ups and downs for the Pirates. Following their success in the 1970s, the team struggled for consistency, enduring a 20-year playoff drought from 1993 to 2012. However, they returned to the postseason from 2013 to 2015, with standout performances from players like Andrew McCutchen. Despite these brief successes, Pittsburgh has faced challenges in maintaining competitiveness, often due to financial constraints as a smaller-market team. Nonetheless, the Pirates remain a beloved institution in Pittsburgh, with a rich history that continues to inspire fans, even as they seek to recapture the glory of their storied past.

Pittsburgh Pirates MLB Record
The Pirates had a pretty miserable season in 2024, finishing 11th in the National League overall with a 76-86 record. Oddly enough, they had the same record in the 2023 season, where they finished 10th in the NL overall.
Here’s a look at the full record for the Pirates:
Pittsburgh Pirates Stats
The Pirates’ pitching staff had an ERA (Earned Run Average) of approximately 4.70, which placed them in the lower tier of the league. The starting rotation struggled with consistency, with few pitchers achieving an ERA under 4.00.
The Pirates showed improvement at the plate, with a few young hitters making significant contributions. The team’s overall batting average was around .240, which ranked in the bottom half of the league.
Pitching Stats
Mitch Keller emerged as the staff ace, recording over 200 strikeouts and an ERA just above 3.60. His development was one of the few bright spots for the pitching staff.
The bullpen showed signs of promise, especially with David Bednar serving as a reliable closer, recording more than 30 saves and an ERA under 3.00.
The staff’s overall strikeout rate was near the middle of the pack in MLB, while walks allowed and home runs given up continued to be areas of concern.
Batting Stats
Power hitting remained a challenge, with the Pirates ranking near the bottom in home runs, hitting fewer than 160 for the season. However, some players like Bryan Reynolds and Jack Suwinski reached the 20-home-run mark, providing some pop in the lineup.
The team showed some progress in on-base percentage (OBP), finishing with a collective OBP around .310, still below the league average. They were more effective in drawing walks compared to previous seasons.
Speed was an asset, with players like Ji Hwan Bae and Liover Peguero contributing to a total of over 100 stolen bases, ranking in the top half of the league for steals.
Pittsburgh Pirates Roster for 2025
The 2024 Pittsburgh Pirates roster featured a mix of promising young players and established veterans, as the team continued its rebuilding process. Key contributors included Bryan Reynolds, who served as a consistent offensive force in the lineup, and Ke’Bryan Hayes, who provided solid defense at third base while showing some offensive improvement. Jack Suwinski emerged as a power threat, while rookies like Henry Davis and Liover Peguero gained valuable experience in the big leagues.
On the pitching side, Mitch Keller led the rotation as the clear ace, with a breakout season that solidified his role as the staff leader. The bullpen was anchored by David Bednar, a reliable closer who continued to be a strength in late-inning situations. The Pirates also gave playing time to younger arms like Quinn Priester and Luis Ortiz, aiming to identify pieces for the future.
Looking ahead to 2025, the Pirates are likely to see more youth integrated into the roster as prospects like Termarr Johnson, Paul Skenes, and Nick Gonzales potentially make their way to the majors. With Keller and Bednar remaining central pieces, the team may look to add another experienced starter to help stabilize the rotation.
Offensively, continued growth from Davis, Peguero, and Suwinski will be crucial, while Reynolds and Hayes will again be counted on to provide leadership and consistent production. The development of these young players will be key for the Pirates to take the next step toward contention, and there could be some strategic free-agent acquisitions to fill gaps, particularly in the starting rotation or middle infield, to complement the homegrown talent.
Pittsburgh Pirates Injury Report
The Pirates suffered a slew of injuries in the last month of the season. Multiple players are starting rehab assignments in the post-season, including Daulton Jefferies, Ke’Bryan Hayes, Endy Rodriguez, and Marco Gonzales.

Pittsburgh Pirates 2025 Betting Outlook and Trends
From a betting perspective, the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2025 will likely still be viewed as an underdog team as they continue to rebuild and integrate young talent. While the potential for improvement exists, especially with emerging stars like Mitch Keller and prospects expected to make an impact, the Pirates are not yet expected to be contenders for the National League Central title.
Therefore, bettors should approach Pirates games with an eye on specific trends and situational plays rather than expecting consistent success over a long season. Here are some that our handicappers feel are likely to emerge in 2025:
- Underdog Value and Run Line Bets: The Pirates will frequently be listed as underdogs in 2025, especially against stronger teams. Bettors could find value in taking the Pirates on the run line (+1.5), especially at home, where young teams often perform better. They may cover the spread more often than expected, even if they do not consistently win outright.
- First Five Innings Betting: With Mitch Keller emerging as the staff ace, betting on the Pirates in the first five innings when he is on the mound could be profitable. This allows bettors to avoid the variability of the bullpen while taking advantage of Keller’s effectiveness. Pay attention to Keller’s matchups against weaker offenses, where he can dominate early in games.
- Player Props – Strikeouts and Home Runs: Keller’s ability to rack up strikeouts could make him a good target for strikeout props, especially against teams with high strikeout rates. Additionally, Bryan Reynolds and Jack Suwinski could be worthwhile options for home run props or total bases in favorable matchups, particularly against pitchers with high home run rates.
- Overs in High-Scoring Parks or Against Weak Pitching: While the Pirates’ offense is still developing, there could be opportunities for overs in games played at hitter-friendly parks or against teams with struggling pitching staffs. The Pirates’ young lineup has potential for explosive games, especially if Henry Davis, Ke’Bryan Hayes, and the other young hitters progress as expected
Betting Trends from 2024
Some of our predictions for 2025 are based on trends that surfaced in the 2024 season. These three were the most prominent:
- Home Underdog Value: The Pirates performed relatively better at home, covering the spread (run line) as underdogs more often than on the road. Bettors found value in backing Pittsburgh on the run line (+1.5) at PNC Park, where their young roster seemed to play with more confidence and energy.
- Low-Scoring Games (Unders): Many Pirates games trended toward the under, especially when Mitch Keller was on the mound or when facing weaker offensive teams. Their struggles to produce consistent offense, combined with solid individual pitching performances, led to lower-scoring games than expected.
- Strikeout Props for Mitch Keller: Mitch Keller consistently hit or exceeded strikeout prop totals, often set around 5-6 strikeouts per game. As the team’s ace, he was a reliable bet for strikeout props, particularly when facing lineups with high strikeout rates.
Key Players for Betting on the Pittsburgh Pirates
As we get ready for the next season of baseball, we advise you to keep an eye on some of the Pirate’s star players. Player props can be a great way to supplement your spreads and moneylines, and often are undervalued by sportsbooks.
The five players you need to watch out for are:
- Bryan Reynolds
- Oneil Cruz
- Andrew McCutchen
- Mitch Keller
- Bailey Falter
Bryan Reynolds
Betting on Reynolds to record multiple total bases can be valuable, especially against right-handed pitchers, as he has shown consistent ability to hit for extra bases. He is also a reliable target for hitting props when playing at home, where his offensive production tends to be stronger. Additionally, betting on him to hit a home run in favorable matchups against pitchers who allow high fly ball rates can offer good odds.
Oneil Cruz
With his combination of power and speed, Cruz can provide value in stolen base props, especially against teams with catchers who struggle to throw out baserunners. He is also a worthwhile bet for home run props, given his raw power, particularly in hitter-friendly ballparks. Bettors should look for opportunities to bet on Cruz’s total bases when he is in a hot streak, as his streaky nature can lead to explosive multi-hit games.
Andrew McCutchen
Even in the later stages of his career, McCutchen remains a disciplined hitter, making him a good candidate for props related to walks or reaching base safely. Bettors can find value in betting on him to record a hit or a run, especially in games where he is batting near the top of the lineup. His veteran experience also makes him a situational play in clutch moments, such as betting on RBIs with runners in scoring position.
Mitch Keller
Keller has been a strong play for strikeout props, especially against teams with high strikeout rates, as he consistently records Ks and has emerged as the team’s ace. Betting on Keller to keep the opponent’s score low in first five innings markets can be advantageous, as he tends to pitch effectively early in games. For matchups against weaker lineups, bettors could also find value in taking Keller’s under on earned runs allowed.
Bailey Falter
Falter can provide value as a sleeper pick in strikeout props, particularly against weaker lineups that struggle with left-handed pitching. When Falter is on the mound against teams with below-average offenses, betting on the under for total runs in the first five innings can be a smart play. His tendency to give up home runs, however, may also create value in player props for opposing power hitters when Falter is starting.

Pittsburgh Pirates Summary
Despite a lackluster 2024 season, bettors can still find profitable opportunities wagering on the Pittsburgh Pirates during their rebuilding phase. Key trends from the 2024 season included value in betting the Pirates as home underdogs, targeting low-scoring games with solid pitching performances, and leveraging player-specific props like Mitch Keller’s strikeouts or Bryan Reynolds’ total bases. Savvy bettors can capitalize on specific situations and player trends, rather than betting on the Pirates to consistently win games outright.
For those looking to take their sports betting strategy to the next level, signing up for a handicapping service like Scores and Stats.com can be a game-changer. Professional handicappers provide expert analysis, data-driven picks, and valuable insights tailored to maximize your betting success.
By combining your knowledge of Pirates betting trends with expert advice from a trusted handicapping service, you can gain a significant edge over the sportsbooks and improve your winning percentage.
