Re: The Departed

Hedges has only started one game for the Rangers. Don't they want to take advantage of the magnificence of his legendary pitch framing?

Re: Todays game August 10

The Pirates are on the cutting edge of resting players. It's the one thing where they probably out-do every other team. Because Cherington and Shelton are always the smartest ones in the room. Of course, it doesn't translate into winning. But if you can't win, then be good at something else. Like re...

Orioles suspend PBP announcer for...well...just because.

https://twitter.com/i/status/1688634791573262336

The Orioles indefinitely suspended PBP announcer Kevin Brown for pointing out in pregame remarks that the Orioles had not won a series in Tampa since 2017. I guess the truth hurts. But now I'm jealous. Why can't Brown and Block be suspended? :D

Re: The Other Games

Mike Lorenzen recently acquired by the Phillies from the Tigers pitches a no hitter against the Nationals. He threw 124 pitches It was his second game as a Phillie since the trade. Only 1 pitcher has ever pitched a no-hitter in his first game after being traded. That was former Buc Don Cardwell. Th...

Re: Todays game Aug. 9th

Another in a series of poor starts by Priester. It's not unusual for young pitchers to struggle but Priester hasn't shown anything!

Re: Henry Davis development as a RF

Brock has to get busy teaching Henry the finer things of playing the OF and start it now. When Bill Virdon was a coach for the Pirates he drilled the OFers relentlessly. Virdon was intense and driven as a player, coach and manager. I don't know how much Brock works with them but Davis would benefit...

Re: The Departed

Tigers broadcaster and catcher Jim Price passed at 81. He got a ring with the 1968 Tigers. He was sold to the Tigers in April 1967, without ever appearing as a Pirate, and I'm sure the only reason I remember him as a Pirate is that he shared a "Rookie Stars" card with Luke Walker. I remem...
