It would be nice if Padlo could hit the ground running and give a late season Garret Jones like showing.

Just out of curiosity, do you go around telling everyone you know, and apparently don't know either, how to spend their money? Too big of a car, too big of a house, iced coffee, cigarettes, donations to politicians, stuff like that? Seriously, what's with people like you making that comment? Like spending money on a game is supposed to have some guarantee?



Just an FYI, they're well over .500 for the games I've attended this season. Last season they were only 7 games under at home, were you aware of that? They are only 5 games under at home right now, are you even aware of that?



I don't see how people waste their time bitching about people wasting their money. I pray people with that attitude just relegate themselves to the whining and bitching fests that are these boards and SM in general, so they don't bring their sour asses to the games and ruin the fun for everyone else. It's called a GAME, that's what we're paying to see. Nothing wasted about having fun. If you need a guarantee you'll see a winner, you must be the one that ruins family game night if you don't win.

Ke'Bryan Hayes to the 10 day IL retro to August 13th. Kevin Padlo recalled from Indy.

To make room for RHP Roansy Contreras, reliever Austin Brice has been DFA.

Also, catcher Tyler Heineman has been activated from the IL; Jose Godoy has been optioned." - Gorman

"Pirates RHP Nick Mears, who was recovering from right elbow surgery, completed his rehab assignment and was activated from the 60-day IL and optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis. The 40-man roster is now at 40." - Gorman

"The Pirates have claimed right-hander Robert Stephenson off waivers from the Rockies. Infielder Kevin Padlo was designated for assignment in the corresponding 40-man roster move, and the Pirates will make another move on their active roster when Stephenson joins the team." - MLBTR

Oh. So I guess he won't be writing a book about Pirates.

It would be great to see a list of which teams have made the most waiver wire selections this year. The Bucs must be near the top of the list.



In short, if nothing else, they have been busy.



Good to see them move on from Padlo.

But for the brief time Padlo was here, he did occupy the key 5th spot in the batting order in 2 of his 3 games. Waiver pickup --> #5 --> optioned --> DFA'd.
