No one else knows what Pirate fans go through

It’s not just the early burning of them in low leverage spots. Been some key non challenges late when they have them left, too.

That check swing call was terrible and turned out to be pivotal. Can review and challenge everything else and yet those remain a total mystery

Few things more annoying than watching your team get mowed down by a washed up bum

Santana falling off is a major bummer and unfortunately it doesn’t look fluky. Not a lot of places to turn, he’s gotta just get it figured out.

Greg said it but that was such a good AB by Reynolds, love Konnor but you saw the sharp contrast of rookie vs vet against a tough pitcher making good pitches right there

A good day’s work for Ozuna

Those errors are such a shame, Bubba is cooking

@StatsMatty Phillies Friday loss. Came in to pinch run for Horwitz, while ahead 3 runs. Then lead gets blown and Horwitz doesnt get to bat in extras as the tying run, Giants Sunday loss. Came in for defense after Reynolds (off day) pinch hit. Ends up batting with RISP in 10th, pops out.

@rtjr What games specifically has it backfired?

Almost feels like a parent taking a toy away from Don Kelly - he loves finding ways to insert Cook late in games, and while there can be a place for that, he does it too much and it has bitten them a few times. I like this.

Source: The Pirates are calling up OF Esmerlyn Valdez from Triple-A Indianapolis. Valdez, the Pirates’ No. 9 prospect, is batting.253 with 10 HRs and 29 RBIs. A corresponding move will need to be made to add him to the active roster. @francysromeroFR was on it.

4 road division series 4 series wins Impressive.

Raise it

He is a Dude.

Raise it

@JRmarsh_all Brewers have passed them but yea

@rtjr Cubbies down too

Needed this. Well done.

Cautious because the numbers haven’t been good in a while, but liking Endy’s at bats so far

Yohan. The Chaos Pitcher.

It sucked so much not even being able to be too happy about Horvitz’s clutch tying hit because you knew an ending like that was coming
