Zach Duke...
has been a pleasant surprise this year.
Never would have thought I’d rather see him on the mound than Gorzo or Snell.
internet connexion
spotty at best. Anything yinz can do do keep me posted up n’at would be appreciated – don’t need a play-by-play, but stats n’at would be helpful.

Interesting Phillies news
Brett Myers, their ”#1” pitcher was sent to AAA today after basically sucking all season.
.500 or bust...
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?
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.
.500 or bust...
the LaRoche thing wasn't necessarily bad
same effect as if he would’ve stood on 2nd.
the doumit thing, well….

If a former Pirates pitching prospect
pitches to a current Pirates hitting prospect, does the at bat make a sound?
As the ball flies into the glove of the catcher
10 feet above the plate.
Oh, and the Pirates hitting prospect has to swing and miss too, creating a “whoosh” sound.

1st and 2nd with no outs
and can’t even get one to 3rd.
The Mariners are going with
starter-by-committee… at least today.
Maybe we should follow them. 4 innings for the starter… no more. and then the next guy. etc.

Just curiosity, but isn't
the Great American Ballfield a “bandbox” that drives ERAs and batting averages through the roof? If so, why isn’t that happening to the Bucs?
LaRoche is the only one
taking advantage… he’s been remarkable for 2 straight games.

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.
We have three in Indy now....

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?
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.
Hello, Cutch, Pearce, Bixler
and anyone else capable of playing…except Paulino.

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

I'll volunteer
I can take one for the team here. The Reds won’t know what to do with my 65 MPH heat.
