Since I'm not watching tonight...
looking at the description of that inning…looks like there was a lot of strange (bad?) baserunning. What happened?
by Thunder on Jul 1, 2008 8:55 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Doumit
ran a stop sign, and was clearly tagged out, but the ump called him safe when he got back to the bag. Then, LaRoche was running on a ball that could have squirted through for a hit… LaRoche’s mistake wasn’t necessarily a mistake… just didn’t work out the way he wanted.

give the Reds credit, but the once-able Pirates bullpen
is really sh!tting the bed of late. that’s two games in a row where the starting pitcher did well but will not win the game.

If
there was any lingering doubt….we will be NOWHERE NEAR .500 this season. Or next. We are not a good team. A sub-mediocre team, to be exact.

You understated it a bit.
sub-mediocre isn’t harsh enough.
I’m just hoping we can reach .500 sometime in the next 10 years.

Which
is hilarious. We and the Rays go 1-2 in the draft EVERY YEAR. They not only lead their division, but even if they lost the their top 3 prospects they’d still have the deepest system in the majors….we just ALL AROUND suck.

Seriously
what would you rather see? The losers we send out NOW and win every 1 of 3 games? OR bring up whatever we have to bring and lose EVERY game, but get those guys some experience?
by PureTekulve on Jul 1, 2008 10:19 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
the problem is
we bring the guys up to get them experience every year and still lose the following year

Don't you
figure they should get used to losing every season the way Jason Bay has? I mean, they’re Pirates. These guys were drafted to have losing CAREERS.

Bunting in the one situation where it makes sense. Bottom nine, nobody out, only need one run, crappy hitter at the plate.
