Around SBN: UFC 146 Predictions

Bullington's First Career Win

Bryan Bullington got his first career win today.  Eight years after being the Pirates #1 pick and the first pick overall, Bullington pitched eight scoreless innings against the New York Yankees of all teams and the Royals won 1-0.

Bullington threw a career high 96 pitches, gave up only two hits and a walk and struck out five. Bullington turns thirty next month. I would guess the over/under on career wins at this point is three.

But good for him. He always will have this one.

You beat me to it.

“I always thought the Pirates gave up on Brian Bullington too soon.”

So should Bob start doing stand up with lines like that?

I don’t actually want to read the article, but he seriously wrote that? What a joke of a human being.

Yeah

A little tongue in cheek. Some of his commenters were dead serious about the Pirates blowing another one, though.
