Pearce
glad to see he is back in the lineup.
I cringe every time I see Doumit in the lineup simply due to the defensive gaffes he will inevitably make. His bat obviously makes up for it but his poor defense seems to grate on me more and more throughout the season.
I made most of my life decisions at a Foghat concert... I stand by them.

Doumit
I’d rather have him than Chavez or Paulino god-forbid. Doumit’s gaffes just grate me more than anyone else’s do.
I understand that he is young and has not started consistently yet and therefore is prone to make mistakes but that doesn’t mean I’m happy about it.

Article on Pirates.com tonight
basically saying that the kids (Luigi, Moss and Pearce) will be getting the lions share of the playing time the rest of the year. Quoted JR several times in the article. That would explain Pearce over Minky tonight even though Minky has great numbers against Pedro. Then again…ADD LaRoche was 1 for 17 against Pedro before tonight.
