Game notes for Indy

confirm JVB and Beam returning to Pittsburgh. One for supposedly for D. Bautista, the other supposedly for Osoria. I haven’t seen any OFFICIAL statements reporting either player to the DL YET.

PG WAS carrying a link on their front page that said Osoria to DL and Morgan to AAA, but that link has been removed in the last few minutes. If both of those moves were made, that would leave 25 man roster at 24. I guess we will see in an hour or so what actually happened.

Looks like

this game may not start on time… it looks like Hell opened up a portal over Pittsburgh tonight.

.500 or bust...

It won't start on time

but I don’t see it getting rained out, based on the radar I’ve been looking at.

PG now has proper moves

JVB, Taubenheim and Beam up, Osoria to DL, Morgan and Barthmaier to Indy. D. Bautista may be available by Monday.

Gah. It changed.

I already had a post up (based on a PG report) that Bautista was going to the DL. Now I have to go edit. :(

The Utah Jazz. The Jazz... duh.
The best NBA team in Utah... no doubts about it!
Playing For Pride. Pirates, Utes, Panthers, and more...
Because, in the end, only one team can "win it all".

And JVB

is the likely starter for the available start on Wednesday.

Big fat L there....

unless the Bucs put up 14.

Come on

I have to go soon.
Get the game underway already.

If we don't want to see our starters get shelled,

we might as well forfeit all the remaining games and get a head start on free agency.

Honestly wouldn't be a bad idea

Duke, Maholm, and even Dumatrait will get better with experience.

I truly belive Nutting, Coonelly, and Neal should take a gamble on a high-priced ace.

If the Bucs can blow $10 million on a washed-up pitcher (thanks DL) then they can take a chance on AJ Burnett, Ben Sheets, or John Lackey.

This team needs a true ACE

Biggest surprise this year offense and bench

If the starting pitching would have come through this year, who knows with the offense and bench hitting the way they are, especially with nothing from Sanchez and LaRouche. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like the minors have any pitching to help the starting chaos out.

Strikes out Hinkse and Pena

To prevent further damage

Well Done!

Jackson

12 pitches, 9 strikes, and an era @ 4.3.

What do the Rays want for us to pick up this ace?

Xavier Nady

Jackson’s a converted outfielder. He could probably pick up some offense too.

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 Snell, Gorzo, and Duke...

taught Ty well. How to walk the opposing pitcher in less than 6 pitches.

WHY DO WE KEEP WALKING THE PITCHER

Hehe

Greg and Blass sound so shocked that we have a pitcher who isn’t (yet) getting shelled

Who knew a guy that's strugging in AAA

Can get his you know what together after the first two batters…........although he DID walk a pitcher.

That's gonna put a dent

on his chance to be an All-Star.

Of course Dirty Sanchez...

is hitting .230 for the year. Yet JR keeps trotting his sorry ass out there in the two hole day after day.

Our announcers mentioned it too

But not for 20 minutes

LaRoche

really looks kinda dumb in the Crawfords uni… it just doesn’t work for him

He'd look great in

ANY uni other than a Pirates’ one, IMO

"Our" ace?

He has yet to pitch a game in a Pirates uniform.

Maybe that’s why he’s not been battered out of the game yet.

Hmmm … Craws unis for rest of year?
