You mean Padlo? Sadly, Rabelo is still the 3B coach. Shelton finally seems to have grasped the idea that the lineup is always better when VanMeter isn't in it. Sure took him a long time to figure that out. This will be the 11th straight game without VanMeter starting.

I stand corrected with Padlo's name. Thanks.

Geez, can't the Commissioner do something useful and award the Bucs a couple of ghost runners early on in this game.
He may not be playing, but it looks like JVM is going to run the table and remain a Pirate for the entire season.
Hoping that Brubaker has another great start in him tonight.

Listening to Block and Walk on the radio. They had a guy from Brooklyn who is a big Pirate fan by the name of Howie Lewis. They let him call the last batter of the 2nd inning and he was such a relief with his Brooklyn accent. He needs to get some training, certainly not from anyone on the Bucs staff.
