Yep, that's what scares me.

How much do you think Sano is going t o get now? Hope it doesn’t happen but I see us getting outbid here. Especially if we stick to our “internal valuation” system.

By all accounts...

…we like Sano plenty well enough to put in a high number on him. If they have the money to spend, there’s no doubt in my mind that they’ll spend for the kid.

by Vlad on Jun 27, 2009 6:42 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yeah...

I’m hoping that’s the reason we dropped out here. I’m guessing once Cuthbert’s number began to rise the FO decided to save the money for the Sano bidding.

On Gorzo...

I wonder if while Gorzo was with the big club…Kerrigan made some adjustments to something in Gorzo’s delivery? He had 7 K’s in 5 innings in his last start…now 10 in 4 tonight. He’s never put up large K numbers.

Only problem is that all those strikeouts tend to bring high pitch counts. He’s thrown 74 in 4 innings tonight. Considering he’s likely still getting stretched out…I only see 1 or 2 more innings out of him tonight.

Aside from the fact that they keep calling him Nyger.

“if the nats make this deal, i can see them turning that ship around and making a run at the pennant.”
“Good idea, trade away yet another good young player.”
“lets trade the guy that came to rebuild the franchise so that we can rebuild it. makes no sense….”

Link…


Morgan is the not the only outfielder the Nationals are looking at. They have interest in Braves outfielder Jordan Schafer. He began the season as Atlanta’s everyday center fielder, but was sent down after the team acquired Nate McLouth from the Pirates.

The Nationals have been unhappy with their outfielders for quite some time. They have come to the come to the conclusion that Adam Dunn and Josh Willingham belong in the American League as designated hitters and Elijah Dukes makes too many mental mistakes.

We should probably jump on a deal before they find someone else

Somebody explain to me why the Nationals are trying to be buyers right now. I know the Nats aren’t very happy with their outfield play, but they are terrible and should just finish out the season with what they have. A trade is going to require them to give up some of their good, young prospects, something the Nationals really can’t afford to do. They don’t need to be any trading. Instead, they just need to ride it out for the rest of this season, look to maybe sign some free agent OF in the offseason, and hold on to their young prospects.

Obviously...

Morton is good to go tomorrow…since Karstens is in now.

He's out for a few games.

Touching an ump. Bad news.

I may be wrong...

but I believe this clinches a winning record in interleague play for the first time for the Pirates.

Free your ass and your mind will follow.

We tend to handle the aces of the league.

Santana, Lee…will Greinke be next?

Somebody...

needs to put out an APB for the Curve offense…playing a DH tonight…they have a grand total of 1 run and 6 hits through 6 innings of Game 2. Lost first one 5-1 and losing 2nd game 5-0.

Was a great night at the ballpark

Perfect day/night for baseball at PNC Park. Nice to see Delwyn Young continuing to do well.

The sign i hear complaints about, the Pirates Charities sign, is that the one that is in right field?.

  Apparently that De Jean dude complains it is in a place that takes away the beauty of the park?.
  I watch the games, so i am not in the park.
  Is that the one?, if so, that should either be moved, or made smaller, because that is the only thing up there.
   Unless they are going to put up more ads, which would be even worse, nothing should be up there.
   As a note, went to Rays/Marlins game sat night. 1st game at trop since game 7 of 2008 al playoffs.
  Can’t believe all the ads they have added around the walls of the stadium.
   Oh by the way Pat Benatar played after the game, and she was Rocking. Looks like she gained some weight over the years, but she is 56 years old.

 The full dressup in black kind of gives it away, that she is not under 100 lbs. , like she was back in the early 80’s

Yes, it’s a terrible looking PIrates Charities sign just in foul territory beyond the Clemente Wall.

And it is brutal, especially for those of us whose view of the skyline is partially blocked by it.

Oh,

It was made in 2005 to unveil the ASG logo, and at that point it was a good idea. Now, it’s just overkill.

Ian Snell

Through 3 innings of his first start in AAA, 9 K’s.

by Hitman Easler on Jun 28, 2009 2:53 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Now seventeen through seven innings.

Gorzo struck out twelve in five last night against the same team.

Did I miss the game thread for today, or is it just not here?
