Lehr is probably the worst pitcher the Bucs have faced all year, so expect him to pitch a shutout here.

DK reports that Jose Ascanio had surgery this morning to repair a torn labrum in his right shoulder performed by Dr. James Andrews. Not good.
And Gorzo got lit up for 7 runs in 3 innings by Arizona today in his last 2009 start.
After watching Grabow get pounded 2 days ago by the PBC, and K. Hart go from bad to worse, this may be one of those trades that helped no one.
I’m here. BTW, there is already a thread open about the Ascanio situation.

I think there are plenty of us, even some like me who couldn’t tell you what team the “Rags” are without Googling!

from yahoo's Red Sox - Indians box score
SB – J Ellsbury (69, 4th base off J Sowers/K Shoppach).

no
that’s the funniest part, apparently scored after stealing third, plus a throwing error from Shoppach

kind of makes you wonder
what that might mean in the whole baseball/getting with the ladies metaphor

Quick Q
I missed my chance to gush during cocktail’s post how BD and Charlie’s efforts have exponentially increased my appreciation of Bucco baseball. When and if my comprehension approaches that of all you fine folks I’ll feel more free to chime in. Thanks to all who put more effort into this than I do at my vocation. That being said, ..is there any online broadcast of Pirate games? I’m not a total moron, but I do a great impression of one.

I watch them at MLB.tv on MLB.com. There’s a monthly fee—I think it’s $15 a month. And since you’re in Morgantown, which is in market, they won’t let you watch live broadcasts there; I think you can only listen to radio.

I had MLB’s thing a few years back and spent more time with Vin lulling me to sleep than actually listening to the PBC broadcast. And for most folk, radio reception’s not a big deal – for “cable-less” kids like me, it’s a bit dicier. Just wanted to know if there was any live streams I was ignorant about. Thanks Charlie, Traco, WstCst and all interested parties.

I’ve never let lack of comprehension keep me from blogging here. Ask anyone.
But I do need to take a mo to thank Charlie, Vlad, WTM, Thunder (our secret weapon), phillybuc, my cuz westcoastbuc and others too numerous to mention, for making this such a great site. And as always, a special shout out to cocktails, my spiritual guide.
Now, go Bucs and don’t lose 100.
speaking of questions
im trying to plan a trip to bradenton…does anyone know when the spring training schedule comes out?
now D Cutch
needs to come back and throw up a quick zero…

Ok, I called it yesterday.
With the cancellation, all we need to is win one in this series to avoid 100.
Maybe we can get a comment from Sean Burnett on which team is an embarrasment to baseball.
Not parroting your comments
But Gameday has this timelapse thing…..in close games, I have to turn off Bucs Dugout so I don’t get tipped by the comments
On a completely unrelated note...
The Internet is pretty darn scary – I just googled an obscure Irish song and came up with the complete background on the song.
And that sure looked like a 2-base error.
Way to be DCutch
Holds the guy on 2B after leadoff double. And EDGE is the mannnn.
Way to be the whole team...
…normally, our left fielder lets one drop in, then we have a throwing error in the infield, then someone hits a batter on an 0-2 count.
I feel like I’m in a parallel universe where the Germans won and Spock has a beard.
Ugh
That was not such a good half inning by 6-7-8.
Bite your tongue.

For those truly sadistic types
You can listen to or watch Ian Snell make his last start w/Seattle later tonigh.
I take it that something bad has happened and I’ll see it in a few minutes
Okay, it was a belt high pitch
But I’m not sure there’s any need to pull “no relation” at this point.
96 pitches
May have something to do with it. Wladimir just sat changeup and mauled it.
Yep
Control and gopher balls will either make or break him.
Hey
I can live with a few solo HR’s if he can get his K’s higher. Fergie Jenkins gave up alot of HRs too.
by eyeofhorus777 on Oct 2, 2009 9:16 PM EDT up reply actions
Agreed
Hence why control is the other issue.
Yep
His stuff seems better now then when I saw him pitch at Indy

Silly Gameday....
Seconds ago, McCutchen was getting pulled and I’m thinkin’ I got time to get a fresh beer. Suddenly, its a 3-1 count on Nix the pinch hitter.
Do you not know better by now?
really?

Hey, its a better option than buying MLB on tv
..until the schmucks blocked it, I could watch at work. Now, I can still get audio broadcasts, if I’m willing to listen en espanol.
I can watch from any room in the house (or on the deck) via the wireless…
just can’t watch the posts in here at the same time.

Man, the Dodger announcers just carved Jones up the last two weeks. It was brutal, mostly because it was so matter of fact.
you owe me $2.

Hanrahan!
I guess it would be bad form to post up the Hanrahan picture from Slap Shot with the “Your wife’s a dyke!” quote now that he’s on the team, eh?
Free your ass and your mind will follow.
I would approve
Slap Shot references are always welcome
JOEL!

No problema....
other than the 3 &1/2 – 4 years (but who’s counting) separation from family, it was fun the whole time. Go new places, meet new people all the time.
LOL!

That’s virtually a quote:

Aren't closers supposed to....
shut down the opposing team in an easy, no-sweat fashion? Just sayin’ that the Yankees fans I know don’t go through this when Mariano is on the mound in the 9th….
