I'm going to the game tonight, so if someone wants to fill in the Blue Jays lineup, feel free. But remember, dead men tell no tales, and no one remembers the names of those we make walk the plank.



It will be a large crowd tonight. I'm predicting 30,000 minimum. First series with some good weather this season aside from when the Astros were in town. I for one will be grateful not to earn another "I watched a game in 40 degree weather with a slight mist and a strong breeze" fan badge.



Fireworks night also, so I'm calling this a doubleheader of sorts, as I predict the Bucs bats erupt before Zambelli does.



You know what Pirates use for shark bait? BLUE JAYS!!!

Shelton sat Possum for a game, even though he's hitting .606.

Don't get on Shelty for me sitting out. It was totally voluntary based on my long-time experience as a Bucs fan. I need time to figure things out as far as being a Game Thread maker. ;D ;D ;D ;D

Heading to PNC Park. In the famous words of a member from back on the old MLB site, Beisbol21, "BEAT 'EM BLOODY!"

Bucs go quietly in the first. We’ll, if you’re going to get down, get down early.
