<t>There isn't much top catching talent in our system, says Captain Obvious. What is far less obvious is where Henry Davis will begin his Pirate career. The only other top 30 catching prospect is Endy Rodriguez, who has performed very well at Bredenton and probably earned a mid-season promotion to G...

Newman has been steady in the field, though his lack of range is a bit of a problem. I just don't understand how a guy can hit a record-setting. 600 in Spring training then turn to rubble. I still expect him to hit .250 before it's all over but I'm not as confident as I was.

Today's game has been soul crushing. We were gifted 4 runs yet Shelton left Kuhl in 3 batters too late.

This one's on Shelton.

Just want to say that I think somebody spiked my martini. Brewers are playing like the Pirates have been.

Bucs look like they know what they're doing.

Whatever my wife put in the drink, I hope she has more!

I'd rather listen to Blockhead & anyone else than McKenry.

Possum, I'm with you 100%! McKenry drives me nuts!

<t>The Bucs need to move Oneill Cruz to the OF yesterday!<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Cole Tucker needs to show a decent average at AAA for me to take him seriously. I like Newman a lot more than most, and predict that he'll be hitting above .250 by the All Star break. Defensively, he reminds me of Jody ...

Sad but true, Bobster. I have to rank Mitch Keller as the #1 disappointment on the Pirates.

<t>I was wondering when this would happen. Craig hasn't performed very well in past promotions but we've got no other options within the system.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> I've seen Craig several times when Indy came to town. Bucs were trying him out in RF to make him more than a 1-position player. Iron...

<t>I'll say this much: I'd rather have Bethancourt get a shot at catching rather than Susac. At least he's younger.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> While I'm at at it, let me join the throng hoping that the Bucs call up Brian Goodwin - or even Troy Stokes - as a 4th OF rather than continue to march Tom out t...
