This team/franchise is so frustrating.



The Pirates would be 16-16 if ...



1. They didn't boot 2 groundballs and give up 3 unearned runs to the Tigers in a 3-2 loss.



2. They had gone just 3-2 vs. the Reds (instead of 1-4).



Folks that is a VERY LOW BAR to clear.



That's it. If they had just done those 2 things, they would be 16-16.



But this sorry team can't even clear THAT bar. As a result, they're 6 games under .500 and headed toward the basement.

At least we have a good Closer.

Carolina,



Might not be that very low of a bar: how many more runs would the Pirates needed to score to win two more games vs. the Reds?



It's not like they were close losses.
