Woo-hoo! Now we have a crooked number of hits!

The big question is will Alford or Perez get a hit for the remainder of the year?

Instead of trying to guess how many more wins the team will have the rest of the way, maybe we should try to project how many hits the Bucs will manage until the end of the season. I’d go with an average of seven per game. If Polanco continues to start, I’ll still say seven.

Wainwright with the same number of hits as all the Bucs combined have, not to mention more RBIs.

can you explain a little more about what an RBI is? It seems like the Pirates don't use that stat very often.

Ponce's ERA is now 8.69. He's a keeper!

Perez is not a major league ball player.

If I recall, it has something to do with somebody doing something that involves somebody on one of the bases doing something that involves home plate. Not to be confusing.

Neither are about 20 of his teammates.

You must be forgetting there are now 26 on the roster. So it's probably at least 21.
