Last night I convinced my wife that Jay Bruce's middle name was also Bruce.

Jay Bruce Bruce, not to be mistaken with the fat Afro American comic from the South.

So, Lynn, worthless mother****er that he is, will still end up putting up around 2.5 WAR this year. I wonder what we could get from a pitching-desperate franchise like the Royals, Rockies, Phillies, Blue Jays, Orioles, Indians, or White Sox.

Brock Peterson makes me yearn for Ty Wigginton. Talk about overmatched. He's just ****ing pathetic.

Its ok Lance, Kelly will show you how its done tomorrow.

Woah.

WOAH!

Slow the **** down there, sport.

Nobody makes me yearn for Ty Wigginton. Pete Kozma doesn't even make me yearn for Ty Wigginton and I'd rather play 8 on 9 if they didn't make us take an out in the 9 hole.

This guy doesn't appreciate hyperbole.

Well I wouldn't actually want to play 8 on 9.

...I don't think.

In either event, I meant it as hyperbole so I clearly do appreciate it. But we have to draw the line somewhere. Singing the praises of Ty Wigginton, no matter how faintly, is somewhere well beyond said line.

Beltran made Yadi look like Eckstein with that hustle down the line. You cannot afford to slackass down the line in that situation.

41 innings, 9 runs in this series.

I was about ready to blow a top after Beltran went 0-2 and it looked like the Pirates were going to get out of that jam.

Still, the Pirates continue with their ridiculous batted ball luck against us. McCutcheon's bleeder and Martin's weak grounder make two more bullshit hits in two innings against us.

It was good to see McCutcheon eat his own shit after tracking down everything hit within a mile of him the rest of the year.

Beltran is streaky. Hopefully, he gets on the right kind of streak for this series. We need him on one of his hot streaks with Craig out.
