  • Can The Pirates Really Justify Frugality Anymore?

    November 4, 2012 Respond

    The names are starting to trickle out.  The names of the players the Pirates are interested in.  Guys like Gerald Laird,  Kelly Shoppach,  Chris Young,  Jeff Francis.  Basically not impact players.  They all have one thing in common though.  They will come cheap. Value. That’s what Pirates fans are now talking about.  Joel Hanrahan doesn’t…

  • Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Arizona Diamondbacks – Game 111

    I would be lying if I said these last few games instilled a ton of confidence.  Maybe the bullpen is just going through a bad stretch, I don’t know.  Still two more runs allowed by the pen is at least slightly concerning and something to keep an eye on.   First Pitch:  4:05 PM EST…

    Did we seriously think the bullpen was never going to lose us a game?  It happens.  Put it behind you and take the next two.   First Pitch:  7:05 PM EST Where To Watch:  Root Spots, MLB.TV, FS-A Ian Kennedy, RHP (27) Ian Kennedy went from a Cy Young candidate last year to Ian Kennedy…

    Huge win last night.  Mostly because of the start by Bedard.  What a start, eh?   First Pitch: 7:05 PM EST Where to Watch:  Root Sports, MLB.TV, FS-A   Patrick Corbin, LHP (23) Yeah, you saw that right. Another lefty. The Diamondbacks seem to be overflowing with lefties. Hell the Pirates are slated to see…

    Imagine if A.J. Burnett didn’t have that one abysmal start.  He would probably be a serious Cy Young contender. Recap.   First Pitch:  7:05 PM EST Where To Watch:  Root Sports, MLB.TV, FS-A   Wade Miley, LHP (25) This is what frustrated me all the more about Pedro Alvarez sitting yesterday. This lefty is the…

    Well I guess the question of what spot A.J. Burnett will take has probably been answered with Jeff Karstens being pulled due to shoulder inflammation. Some of these guys finally looked like Major League hitters, and if not for Jason Grilli giving up the lead would have beaten a very, very good pitcher in Ian…

    This is really starting to suck.  This team can’t hit.  Jose Tabata appears to be stealing money, and I still haven’t caught a fish worth talking about on my vacation!  On top of that the Penguins are down 3-0 in the playoffs! Erik Bedard is a very undeserved 0-3- paging Dr. Ohlendorf- and I just…

    I’m going to say something out of the ordinary for me.  Kevin Correia has to stay in the rotation. I can honestly say that I didn’t have him pegged for the first win of the season.  Oh well, I still think he is a marginal pitcher. First Pitch: 9:40 PM EST Where to Watch:  Root…
