Will somebody please tape Capp’s mouth shut

If I hear him praise Hedges defense one more time, I’m going to throw up in my mouth!

Capps being way too much of an apologist for Hedges right now. It's obvious he's addressing what the entire world of baseball is talking about, how important is he really? He doesn't throw out anyone hardly (blame the pitchers!), he's thrown at least into CF, he has 4 catcher interference, and he's batting .162, and some stat head is going to tell me about pitch framing?

We know awful when we see it. If he's so valuable, he should be the first guy traded this season, because the league has to be knocking on his door.

another fine display of hitting by Hedges.

Bae, Suwinski, Castro, and Hedges are now 0-9 with six strikeouts.

I can't wait for teams that want to improve their catching get into a bidding war to get Hedges. Who knows, it might be taking place behind closed doors right now.

Cutch must be feeling what I'm talking about, he strikes out swinging from the heels.

It's starting, Oviedo is trying to pitch too fine, you could see this coming

I hate when they have that camera angle from behind the plate during a pitch, because I don't get to admire the beauty of Hedges pitch framing

Pirates made a trade today, 3P3 posting on the roster thread. Pick up Andre Jackson for cash, optioned to AAA.

Mathias DFA to make room on the 40 man.
