Where are you seeing that?

Ah...
the Post-Gazette has it.
For the first time in 52 years, a Pirate pitcher will bat somewhere other than ninth.

It’s on the Pirates page on the PG website.

Yeah, saw it...
just the last place I looked. Went to MLB, Yahoo! & ESPN to see if they had the batting line-ups up very early…

Nate a late scratch….Nate Sr. replaces him….......and Sucking Sanchez leads off…..I will now go beat my head against a brick wall.

Now it makes no sense
to have Maholm batting 8th. Just have Jack lead off. It would still leave you with…
SS Jack
2B FPF (first pitch Freddy)
CF Nate Sr
LF Bay
C Doumit
RF Nady
1B The Roach
3B Minky
P Maholm.
Not much difference…just means Jack gets 1 more at bat than with Russell’s lineup.
Woohoo, an interview with Van Benschoten

There are currently 87 players in the NL eligible for the batting title...
Of those 87, your leadoff hitter for the PBC tonight ranks 86th in OBP. That’s right. Getting on base.
He is also dead last in OPS in the league.
Lovely,
those of us with MLB.tv get to hear George Grande and Jeff Brantley.
so what was this about Harang being awful?

That's not saying much.
Shawn Chacon & Sidney Ponson would be our aces if we had them…

Lots of pitchers

Some pitchers
could be our starting infielders (CC Sabathia anyone?) if we had them too.

it’s hard to be “awful” when WTF? & Nate Sr. are the lead-off guys.

They're horrible... but
their radio guy is pretty funny… he’s old and crochety, though I can’t remember his name..
.500 or bust...
I actually like him....
used to listen to him and the old lefthander way back when.

He's not afraid
to give the Reds hell on the air if they’re stinking up the joint. Needless to say, they’ve provided him with plenty of ammo this season. My brother board-ops a Reds affiliate in West Virginia, so he keeps me posted on what Marty bitches about.
.500 or bust...
He tweaked his leg the other night
I think it was a hammy pull… probably just resting him up a little.
.500 or bust...
What's been printed in the media
is sore knees, from fouling balls off of them.
Wow!
They promised us that LaRoche would hit for a ton in June. I just didn’t expect it’d take until the 30th.
Adam Bomb!

I guess the Roach

thought that Bruce hit was a tailor made DP
guess not

If it was any other starter...
someone else would’ve had to get out of the mess for them.
So Maholm getting out of his own… that’s a great thing.

My bad earlier...
it’s not Jeff Brantley tonight with George Grande, it’s Chris Welsh. Got my former Reds pitchers confused.
PNC question
Hello Buccos,
Dodger fan planning a trip out to PNC. Need some help with the seating chart. I see the field boxes have a row AA. Is that behind Z or up in front??
Thanks
behind Z
still good seats though

89 pitches through 7 innings,
and you take the starter out. This is a part of the game that I just don`t agree with anymore. An overworked bullpen; that has some suspects because of injuries, but you still don`t take the opportunity to look for a CG. Anyway, hope we keep the lead and get the win.
JR can't win here
If there’s been one major criticism of JR on this site, it’s that he keeps his starters in one inning too long. (Sadly though, I agree with you in this instance.)
exactly
what I was about to say. good point

This is a perfect example of stupid management
of a pitching staff. Maholm should`ve pitched the 8th, and with good results, should`ve been back out there in the 9th. 89 pitches and you take the guy out….Retarded.
John Russell should get fined by the kangaroo court for this one.
39-43
The team motto for the second half should be:
Let`s WIn 78 In 2008!
