Here we go. As bad as Connor Joe is hitting right now I'd rather see him than Oliveras in RF. We need to live with Suwinski in CF, but I'd go with Jason Delay behind the plate because he cut is defensive chops under defensive-minded Austin Hedges, who has a WS ring.

Let's Go Bucs!!!

Go Oilers

[Bobster]

Tellez barely moves his bat and the catcher asks for an appeal to the 3B ump. The HP umps asks the 3B ump who immediately signals no swing. It wasn't even remotely close to a swing so the appeal just wasted everyone's time. Why doesn't the HP ump deny the appeal?

Cannot continue to stubbornly put Suwinski and Grandal in the lineup. They must have pictures of Shelton having sex with sheep

[JollyRoger8]

Pirates need to call up Josh Palacios and rid themselves of Suwinski.Suwinski is a nice guy but it’s time to move on.
They should also promote Ashcraft instead of another bullpen game

[Wildwoodcoach]

Falter -three very good innings
Faltering in the 4th

[JollyRoger8]

Grandal lazily lets the cut off throw go to the backstop

[JollyRoger8]

Game over
Time to watch the Stanley Cup

[Wildwoodcoach]

The way the bucs hit JR, GAME OVER!!
