The Pittsburgh Pirates had another disappointing season in 2024 as they finished last in the NL Central with a 76-86 record.
They missed the postseason for the ninth straight year and had their sixth straight losing season.
While the season was disappointing overall, the Pirates did have one bright spot in rookie Paul Skenes, who started in the NL All-Star Game.
Now the Pirates are making an incredible offer for one of his baseball cards.
“The Pirates are offering 30 years of season tickets behind home plate and more for this 1/1 Paul Skenes Debut Patch card,” wrote B/R Walk-Off at X .

Skenes had an incredible rookie season with the Pirates and is a finalist for both the Rookie of the Year and the National League Cy Young Award.
He started 23 games and was 11-3 with a 1.96 ERA and 170 strikeouts in 133.0 innings.
Baseball cards are making a comeback as more and more collectors take up the hobby.
The Pirates offered a boatload of cash for this unique card of their star rookie pitcher.
Along with season tickets, the Pirates are offering a spring training experience, a meet and greet with Skenes, two Skenes autographed jerseys and more.
Some believe Skenes will be MLB’s next great pitcher, and he’s off to a good start with his 2024 numbers.
Pirates all started getting this card and it will be interesting to see if they offer enough to get it.
