I didn't here who was sent down, but Gift Ngoepe is coming up. He can play 2B and SS and 3B.

I have a bad feeling it means Freese to the DL.



Still, what an exciting time for Gift. It's a pretty great accomplishment considering his history

I've wondered if the defense issue wouldn't overcome them at some point. If only Gift could hit a little even. I doubt he can though.

Or maybe Hanson goes away. I guess I'd rather have a guy that does one thing well over someone that does zero things well.

You might be right. Pretty strange he didn't bat last night. I thought the same thing. Why not sit him tonight if he is being rested over yesterday?



I hope Ngoepe and Neverauskas don't get in any more trouble being together again.

Maybe we can put Tom Prince or Joey Cora in the lineup sometime soon lol.

The Trib reports Freese has a tight right hamstring.

I knew something was up with him. Thanks, Bobster.

No word on this yet from #Pirates. I'd think it's likely Gift is on the "taxi squad" in case Freese's sore hamstring requires a DL stint.

Nice article though

Good story. I hope he does something well for the Bucs in probably limited time.



That said, this is where we are at as an organization. Bringing up a guy that can't hit a lick, but supposedly fields well. After being swept 2-1 by a mediocre Cards team and losing 1-0 last night ... this doesn't really help in the grand scheme of things.
