I can't believe it, Chavis & Castillo starting after a great game on Sunday. Also, like Marisnick in LF for his D.

Castillo wasn't in yesterday's lineup. I guess the rainout saved Shelton from himself.

I have to believe that Tucker is starting in rf because he is prime candidate for removal from roster when it drops from 28.



The bad part of this is I think it means VanMeter is guaranteed to stay.

I'm good with the lineup with one exception ... Quintana on the mound. I have no faith at all that he can be any good. I'm expecting a typical Pirates start ... 4.1 IP, 7 H, 5 R, 4 ER.



Since we have no legitimate MLB starters, I wonder how many times this season our starter will go 5+ innings.

What do y'all predict the score will be after one half inning?



I really hope the Pirates can come to bat at least one time today when they are not behind.



But I'll predict the Cubs get two in the top of 1st on a 2-run homer.

Bryan Reynolds aka Rally Killer!

All Tucker had to do was move Perez to third and we probably have a run

But, but, Reynolds is the team's best player and needs to get the clutch hit in this situation.

Will Quintana come out for the 6th inning? :question

Tucker has to go at the end of the month if not sooner. The guy can't hit a lick!
