Around SBN: Jeff Sullivan's MLB Trade Deadline Primer

Photos from the Pirates' 3/14 B-Game

Here are some of WTM's pictures from the B-game against the Orioles yesterday.

Bryan_20morris_1__medium

Here's Bryan Morris, who was cut today. One would think he'd start the year at Class A+, a level he didn't exactly master last season.

Star-divide

Bryan_20morris_204_1__medium

Another shot of Morris.

Brad_20lincoln_204_1__medium

Here's Brad Lincoln, who will start off at Indianapolis and could join the Pirates' rotation sometime this summer.

Brandon_20jones_1__medium

Here's Brandon Jones, who will be in Indianapolis' outfield. With the outfield in Pittsburgh already crowded (with other people named "Brandon" and "Jones," which must cause Brandon Jones all kinds of existential despair) and with Jose Tabata on the way, it'll be interesting to see if Brandon Jones ever gets a shot with the Pirates.

Brian_20myrow_1__medium

This is Brian Myrow, the king of hitting the snot out of AAA pitching.

Brian_20friday_202_1__medium

And this is Brian Friday, who will be Indianapolis' starting shortstop.

Donnie_veal_2_medium

I assume Donald Veal needs no introduction.

Jeff_sues_2_medium

Here's Jeff Sues, who will be in Indianapolis' bullpen.

Rudy_owens_5_medium

Finally, we have another shot of Rudy Owens, working in the bullpen.

Does...

Rudy Owens have a jew fro? That would be totally awesome if he ends up in the majors with us some day just because he has one.

I didn’t recognize him at first. Last year he had a crewcut.

by WTM on Mar 15, 2010 4:17 PM EDT up reply actions  

No, he must have cut it after that. I saw him later in the year.

by WTM on Mar 15, 2010 4:41 PM EDT up reply actions  

He's got a ways to go...

Before he out-fros Ross Grimsley.

Reminds me of the poodle we had when I was a kid.

that thing is amazing

the mustace with the facial expression of he is about to kill the camera man with his fro puts it over the top

WTM, and/or anyone else in Bradenton

has anyone that you’ve seen really stood out, either in games or workouts? I think I am more excited about what is going to happen in West Virginia and Bradenton this year than what’s going to happen in Pittsburgh, and I am excited about what is going to happen in Pittsburgh this year!

It's a good day to be a Pirate

Morris, Jordy Mercer, Brock Holt.

The Latin guys look very different from the guys they used to bring up. They’re not little slap hitters. Gregory Polanco looked good in BP, for instance, hitting drives to the outfield consistently. All the guys they used to have would just hit little grounders in BP.

by WTM on Mar 15, 2010 5:23 PM EDT up reply actions  

That's encouraging...

 about the Latin guys and I expect Mercer to have a nice season. Would love for Morris to regain top prospect status as well.

Gotta love...

…the Creechlings.

Jordy Mercer

His put on any size I think thats all he needed last year ?

by Ron J on Mar 15, 2010 7:34 PM EDT reply actions  

I meant to say has he put weight on at 6’3 190 he has great range and smooth at short ?

by Ron J on Mar 16, 2010 3:26 AM EDT up reply actions  

Owens' facial expression

seems to suggest he’s not entirely sure where it will go but he’s gonne throw it anyway GD it!

by BlindSquirrel on Mar 15, 2010 7:52 PM EDT reply actions  

Dang, you're right.

Kind of looks like one of the guys on my HS team anytime he touches the ball.

Hey, an out is an out - unless you're Mario, in which case it's probably two outs. -UtesFan89

Why can't Mendy bust a long TD run? We could use it.
