Hey guys

Where’s the party?

Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; but if a thing is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.

looks like JR got the party started by benching Laroche (Gomez starts at first!)... no Nady though.

he made an ass out of my Rangers...

...not once…
...but twice…

...to think… we picked a can’t-hack-it, minor-league-meddling shortstop… over that guy…

unbelievable…

A bunch of people passed on him.

And we got Victor Zambrano for him from the Mets. The Mets’ fans hate Kazmir more than you ever will.

a fire-ballin' lefty from Texas...

...even in high-school, i would have taken a longer look at him…

alas… John Hart thought we could win with the quick-fix. that mutha set us back five years with his bumbling…

i don’t even know how he is still employed with this ballclub…

‘f’ John Hart. ‘f’ Tom Hicks.

‘f’ any person who treats his club like property. i think Pirate fans know a thing or two about that…

the Mets made the same mistake

trading Kaz for All-World Victor Zambrano

I do love PNC Park

I went to a game last year, sat in the upper deck infield. A really nice stadium.

He’s a Pirates pitcher for sure!

You can thank oc

He’s not even a Pirate fan, and he said he wanted to punch Kaz in the face.

So Pirate fans...

Has McClouth’s power leveled off yet? Or is he still hitting HR’s?

by Cory Alexander on Jun 27, 2008 7:23 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Nate's leveled off in all categories lately....

I blame Russell’s insistence on moving him up and down the lineup.

Hey, got to blame somebody. :)

by Hitman Easler on Jun 27, 2008 7:25 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

He gets bumped all around the lineup, so that might be messing with his consistency a little…

Do you have any idea what a Pittsburgher is?

It is fully loaded, like a restaurant hamburger. You have to eat it with a knife and fork.

I love that the pregame show tomorrow is doing “John Wehner and his family experience the all-you-can-eat seats” feature… I guess when your team kinda sucks, what else is there to talk about?

Wehner looks like he should perhaps lay off those seats for a little while…

You do realize you're only four games under .500, right?

You aren’t exactly going for the Mets’ record for futility.

but it’s only gonna get worse after the trade deadline.
Wins now will help cancel out the losses later… (as if).

A little info

Someone on the Deadspin site wondered by “the ‘stache” (Giambi) didn’t stay for Anthrocon.

And a few others agreed.
