Maybe the jet lag flying from Indy to Pittsburgh earlier this week finally caught up to him and he needed a blow.

Forget what I said about having the kid Baptized again.

5 in a row for us :-[
On the plus side, the Braves had a sellout crowd of 41,000.

Everyone wants to see our bucs

On a break.  Took a look.



Let's just say that I am no longer enthused.  Geez.



So much for horizon talk.

Beware STL your next ::)

Swaggerty was red hot at Indy, and the Pirates believe in resting hot hitters. No one is better at that than Shelton. So Swaggerty was promoted so that Shelton could rest him.



Although by Shelton's standards, Swaggerty has had a grueling schedule:



6/5: sit on the bench and watch

6/6: no game

6/7: start

6/8: sit on bench until 8th inning

6/9: start

6/10: start and get 2 ABs until being PH for in the 7th by Whiff Chang (who whiffed).

6/11: sit on bench



I'm guessing that after yesterday's game, Shelton woke Swaggerty up to apologize to him for not getting him enough rest.

Team's probably sponsored by The Mattress Factory.

The Pirates are unveiling their new fight song and Nutting has spared no expense to hire the best singer he could find.
