Figured I better post this while it is still true...
I looked a couple places but didn't find it. I did see it live though -- one heckuva play that got the Bucs out of major jam.Anyone find video of the double play that Wilson turned last night?
Two months ago if you had told me that the Pirates would only be 1 game out of first place this late in the season, I would have called you crazy. Could this be the year we finally hit .500?Figured I better post this while it is still true...
Look I know I've gotten my hopes up at the start of the season for the past 15 years but I really do believe this year will be different. I think this team is solid..............Still in first
they did get rid of torres right? he was an inning eater in the 7th and 8th.... capps can pitch though...hes better than people think.Damn. What a freaking bullpen. 5 in the 9th one day to tie it up. 7 in the 8th two nights later to blow open a tie game (and cost me a save).Team has no chance if the bullpen doesn't do a better job.
Yea they shipped off Torres to Milwaukee for some pitching prospects.Which is fine with me because Torres was getting older anyway, plus we got Yates for Redmond (i believe), who is younger than Torres and throws in the high 90sthey did get rid of torres right? he was an inning eater in the 7th and 8th.... capps can pitch though...hes better than people think.Damn.

The Pirates bullpen this year is going to be atrocious with or without Torres. It looks like they actually have a pretty solid lineup for a change. Too bad Laroche is going 0 for April for the second straight year.Yea they shipped off Torres to Milwaukee for some pitching prospects.Which is fine with me because Torres was getting older anyway, plus we got Yates for Redmond (i believe), who is younger than Torres and throws in the high 90sthey did get rid of torres right? he was an inning eater in the 7th and 8th.... capps can pitch though...hes better than people think.Damn.

It was a good bunt and the guy on 3rd should have scored. The Pirates put the guy in as a pinch runner in the 9th and he doesn't run......1st and 3rd, bottom of the 9th, 1 out, game winning run at third base.And Jose Bautista BUNTS?
Ok the Buccos have had a lot of busts during their 15 season losing streak but is any bigger than Laroche? This guy is an absolute bum. He doesn't even belong in the pathetic lineup anymore. There is really just nothing good about this guy.Our starting #3 & #4 batters:5/40 0 HRs 0 RBIsOver/under on Laroche hits in April: 12![]()

He was pretty good in the second hlaf last year and he is hurt right now. I am not willing to give up on him right now.Ok the Buccos have had a lot of busts during their 15 season losing streak but is any bigger than Laroche? This guy is an absolute bum.

Aren't the Pirates usually eliminated by the start of the 2nd half? What good does it do the team for the guy to only show up during the 2nd half? They need him when there's actually pressure to win games---right now. If he's hurt and this much of a hindrance, he shouldn't be in the lineup. On another note, after the last 2 losses to the Cubs and the Pirates consistent attitude of thinking in terms of "moral victories", I'm more disgusted as a Pirates fan than I've ever been in my life. Two straight extra innings games at home and they can't pull out even one of them?He was pretty good in the second hlaf last year and he is hurt right now.
