-Jack missing a 6th straight game
-Black Hole should be back up tomorrow… a corresponding move will have to be made to make room on the roster.

Mossome?
I still like Triple-M (for the “Mighty Mighty Mosstone”) but I admit to being a little bit of a WWE geek.

Whatever happened
to batting the pitcher eighth? Is JR admitting that was silly?
batting 8th
He said he thought it helped to set the table for Bay, Nady, but with those guys gone (weaker No. 2 hitter?), it didn’t make sense anymore. I didn’t really understand the logic (and I never liked the idea in the first place), but anyway Russell somehow linked the change to the trade.
Incidentally, 8 shutout innings for Ohlendorf today in a 1-0 win. Four hits, 1 BB, few Ks.
Doesn't matter they could get the Pitcher to bat lead off and get the same production as Freddy
5 Quality Starts in a row/Aug. 08
Pirates just agreed to terms with...
Justin Wilson, their 5th round pick.

I wonder
how much it cost them.

Dominos are starting to fall
Only Sheppers, Grossman and Alvarez to go for an excellent first draft for Coonington
Considering how much both the Fresno State guys were used,
I`d like to see us get #10 Gagnon and #20 Miller for more quality young arms.
Scheppers is going to be an injury risk-no matter if he is deemed healthy enough to sign now-and the guys here have not exactly given dominant reviews of Wilson.
Let`s be hopeful.
Bruce
certainly has cooled since hie debut, hasn’t he?

From DK:
What to watch: Fogg has been abysmal against his former mates, with an 11.30 ERA in three starts, including 22 hits and six home runs in 14 1/3 innings.
Yeah.

Just a hunch...
maybe Adam LaRoche is taking an extra night of rehab…so that whoever the roster move tomorrow involves…clears waivers?
Pirates have to punish Reds
Fogg is Fogg—one of the worst SP in all of ML not wearing black and gold.
If Pirates can’t knock him out of the game by the end of the 4th, I’m checking out after tomorrow’s signing deadline til ‘09.
Get ready
to grab you coat and hat, amigo… this lineup probably won’t do it.

On the plus side… you won’t have to worry about the team bringing on depression for a whole year.

Carl Crawford on DL
How about Duffy to the Rays? He’s already cleared waivers in the last 30 days. Or Morgan? Either can presumably play LF.
PBC could take the famous PTBNL. Or a bag of balls—unscuffed.
Rays would be saner making this move than going for G. Sheffield or B. Bonds (but just barely).
Bonds?
Hasn’t lifted a bat in live action for 11 months. By the time he’s thru with ‘spring” training, Crawford will be off the DL.
It's the same reason
That I don’t wish for cancer even though I hear it’s a great way to lose weight.
He's
done.

Crawford is out
till AT LEAST the last week of the regular season…had surgery today.
Bonds needs about 8 weeks of spring training
I know some think he could get off his deathbed and put up a .450 OBP but (a) he’s presumably off the juice now, and (b) he’s 44 years old!!
not gonna
happen

Looks like
Maholm is gonna pitch a beaut, and get no run support.

I cannot believe it
Only 2 hits and 0 BB after 4 innings.
It’s not Josh Fogg, it’s the ghost of Cy Young pitching for the Reds tonite.
(I knew there’d be some pain in starting 3 rookies (but only 2 tonite) and still missing Mario, but jeez—it’s Josh Fogg!!!)
Did the announcer
call him “J-Mich” (pronounced Mike)?
Horrible. That nicknaming method has got to stop.

Another fun night
for the Hickory pitching staff. Hickory HAD a 5-0 lead after 2 innings. De Los Santos started…and is still in. His line 4 IP, 3 H, 7 R, 7 ER, 5 BB, 5 K, 3 HBP and 1 WP. Adam LaRoche 1 for 2 with a single and an RBI, lined out his other at bat. Hickory down 7 to 5 in the 4th.
Sh**
That was a huge chance for Moss-ome/Triple-M/Rolling Stone (I guess we’re still searching) to blow the game open.

If Pirates can’t knock him out of the game by the end of the 4th,
s’ok, pal – we’d hate to lose you.

Yeah
Blogging is a bitch—those posts always come back to haunt you. :)
At least Fogg didn’t markedly lower his ERA (-0.02) against the PBC, and his WHIP actually went up.
So it was on the whole an average Josh Fogg performance, which was all I was asking the team to do—not to lay down for the guy.
That was no worse
than your average Zach Duke start.
Will Duke even be a Pirate
next season? Keep him around and you have to give him a big raise because he`s arbitration eligible.
Zach Duke is just a bad pitcher. The Jim Colborn blame game doesn`t wash anymore. I don`t care that Duke is only 25, either.
From MLB.com
(Justin) Wilson will report to the Gulf Coast League Pirates, where he is expected to finish out what is left of the Minor League season. From there, Wilson will take part in the organization’s fall instructional league.

Hey all
‘sup…watching the game on vacation, because I like my vacations to be as stressful and disappointing as possible :P

I'm just glad to know that last night's loss wasn't
due to my jinx… didn’t watch the game at all.

OH,

He`s only thrown 97 pitches-
they should send him out there for the 9th. Of course these days so many people panic if a starter even throws over a 100, so we`ll see.
so easy
a caveman can do it?

Whew
That was close—a must win game if there ever was one. Maholm should beat Fogg at PNC 10 out of 10 times.
Game!

Jose Tabata
If anyone is still around and wants to hear somemore good news Jose Tabata right now is 4-4 with 3 single 1 double 1 RBI and 2 Runs
Does he play CF?
If I’m Cutch, I’m looking over my shoulder.
Good news!
He was 2-4 last night with a 3b. Maybe he’s starting to heat up. Getting over injuries, or change of scenery or both…either way a hot Tabata is a great thing for the PBC!
Makes sense
Play him 2B, SS, OF (even C) and get him back to being super-sub. It’s his only chance for a ML career. Rule 5 did a number on him—of course he has DL to thank for it.
