Tucker in right? Leading off? SMH.

Time to just give up. Seriously.

Moran or Bell long term, who you got?

I think Moran is turning into a more reliable bat and a better glove.

I'm really hard pressed to understand why these strong young men can't play every day. Hayes is already being given a day off? If Cal Ripken were in the Pirates system, he wouldn't have been brought to Pittsburgh until he was 26, and then he'd have been rested every 10 days or so. No one would've ever heard of him.

I may agree, Moran has done well at first, and he has hit well. Bell’s season has not been very good so his trade value is down. The Bucs may have to wait until next seasons trading deadline to do something with Bell.

Outside of three months last season, Bell's career has not been very good.
