Exactly
Now can we hold this lead
As long as we get it to the 11th, Bednar will be available then
Glad you made it Surg. With the win the bucs get one game closer to 50 wins

Watching the replay. I knew Grossman was a Pirate at one time, and one of the more highly regarded prospects.
He was part of the Wandy Rodriguez trade.
Wow, that's a long time down the road ago.

Wait, what? This can’t be true. He’s the greatest fantasy player I know.

Not sure if that's true. He was in the Pirates organization, but not sure that he was ever donned a Pirates MLB uniform. Did he?

Sorry didn't mean to imply he played for the Pirates, he was only a prospect

Grossman had 100 walks one season in minors . We then traded him.

Grossman was a decent but not great hitter in the minors who drew a lot of walks but lacked power. That's generally described his MLB career as well until this year when he suddenly developed a HR stroke at age 31 and leads the Tigers with 21 HRs. Although he's only hitting .238.
