Andrew McCutchen’s reunion with the Pittsburgh Pirates can be viewed in a number of different ways.

For starters, it’s certainly a feel-good story for an organization and a fanbase that desperately needed one.

It could also be viewed as the Pirates brining back a veteran with an impressive resumé to help mentor a young roster before riding off into the sunset.

While both could be true, don’t tell McCutchen either of those. He came back to the Pirates to win.

“I want to win, but specifically, I want to win here,” McCutchen said during his press conference at PNC Park on Friday.
