OnlyBucs

Currently all of bullpen guys are doing well except for Hughes. I think Vogelsong returns around July 25th, if the bullpen pitchers are still pitching well at that time, does Hughes go to the DL or DFA'D

I read that MLB could place him on paid leave for 7 days to further review the matter. This situation is very unfortunate for Kang and the Pirates.

Stallings was removed from the 40 man roster.

Another former Buc from 1962 was catcher Cal Neeman. He did not get much playing time, but my family and I went to the game on Father's Day at Forbes Field that year and he hit a home run. I was 10 years old at the time, and that was the second MLB game that I attended.

<t>When I wrote the post I was looking at a comparison from one bat in the line-up vs another bat. The stats for Freese and Walker are very close at this time. I think this off season several of us thought the Bucs would miss the run production from Pedro and Walker. At the halfway point of the seas...

Freese now has 8 homers 35 RBi and a batting average of .292. Freese kind of fell in the Pirates lap by a late signing during spring training, but if you compa...

All I can remember it was a day game, maybe vs the Cubs. I cannot recall which player batted out of order, but the opposing manager visited wit...

Unfortunately Glasnow pitched just a couple days ago so he was not in line to pitch tomorrow. I do think we will see him shortly after the Break. I think he knows he is on the doorstep.

It is good to hear that Diaz is beginning his rehab. It is too bad he was injured because he would have been the main catcher when Cervelli went down.

<t>I heard that after the game today, and Brault will make the start tomorrow. This could be the chance to shut Taillon down for a couple weeks. His last start was Wednesday June 29th. When you back date the DL to that date, he will be in line to pitch vs the Nationals in the first series after the ...
