That lineup actually looks okay on paper if you ignore the returns from injury.

When/If Chisenhall returns, he's supposed to have a good arm. It might make more sense to put him in right and move Polanco to left - even though he'll be an adventure chasing flies there.

With the addition of Tucker and Reynolds that gives us 4 switch hitters in the lineup.....nice!

Godley is struggling for AZ. 4 walks and 71 pitches in 3 innings. The returning Bucs are doing well. Polanco with a hit, walk and run. Diaz with a hit and RBI. And Tucker with a double.

Josh Bell is getting better at 1st.

He's looking like a Gold Glover there tonight!!! Nice plays on ground balls and even some nice scoops on low throws.

Double by Polanco and then Bell CRUSHES a triple. And thank goodness Greg Brown isn't doing the TV to do his "trip, trip [barf], etc."

Bam Bam Bell drives an RBI triple off the center field wall.

Clutch Moran delivers another RBI hit.

Reynolds doubles....

This is a fun team with some real talent in the near pipeline.

I hope Pirate fans gives this team a chance despite Nutting.
