  • Roster Watch: Chase d’Arnaud

    November 29, 2012 Respond

    Chase d’Arnaud will be 26 when the new Pirates season starts. The gloss has worn off d’Arnaud a bit and he is currently in a logjam of backup middle infielders.  d’Arnaud took a step backwards last year after being sent to AAA and missing a lot of time with a concussion.  He scuffled the first…

  • Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Milwaukee Brewers – Game 148

    September 19, 2012 Respond

    It’s so easy to write that the Pirates lost to the Brewers.  It’s natural.  Second nature at this point.  It’s not surprising, it’s barely even frustrating.  It’s accepted.  Accepted by the fans for sure, and seemingly accepted by the players.  How else could you explain this drought against the Brewers? First Pitch:  7:05 PM EST Where…

  • Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Chicago Cubs – Game 144

    September 15, 2012 Respond

    I like to read message boards.  I often frequent the Steelerfury message boards.  They allow me to post my blog posts on their Pittsburgh Sports forum and a decent group of people talk Bucco-baseball.  It’s nice really.  Anyway I was reading there and one of the members posted this. If they don’t make the playoffs,…

  • 2011 Pittsburgh Pirates Redux – Thirdbase Edition

    November 13, 2011 15

    Last season was a very disappointing one, production-wise from third.  Pedro Alvarez came in with a ton of hype, with the hopes and dreams of a fanbase on his shoulders and failed miserably. Pedro Alvarez started the bulk of games at third for the Buccos but Pedro Ciriaco, Chase d’Arnaud,  Josh Harrison, Michael McKenry, Steven…

  • 2011 Pittsburgh Pirates Redux – Shortstop Edition

    November 9, 2011 2

    Well the Pirates made this a bit easier by not exercising Ronny Cedeno‘s option.  Apparently they thing they can find a better shortstop via trade or Free Agency for less than $3 million bucks. So who was the one that thought booting was a good idea?  No one seems to know.  Was this move made…

  • 2011 Pittsburgh Pirates Redux – Second base Edition

    October 16, 2011 36

    This one should be short and sweet. Unlike the first base position one word comes to mind for second base, entrenched. Josh Harrison, Pedro Ciriaco, Chase d’Arnaud, Josh Rodriguez and Brandon Wood all spent time at second base, but Neil Walker was the clear starter. Walker started 155 season, every one of them at second.…

    Bye Bye Jeff Karstens’ 5-game winning streak Bye Bye 3-game winning streak Bye Bye 1st place in the Central Bye Bye Neil Walker 13-game hit streak Two Chase d’Arnaud errors (lead directly to two runs) and Jeff Karstens not running hard on a double in the third were the difference in the game.  The Pirates…

    16 Hits, 10 Runs, Correia on lock, 8 runs through 2…10-2 Sunday afternoon win….that’s what they call a Cigar Game right there: The Buccos have now won 8 of their last 12 games. They pulled within 1.5 games of the Central Division lead. Hey National League, keep pissing Cutch off: The man was ripping it…
