What happens when the pirates bring up gregory polanco ??

i know polanco is tearing it up at AAA and that he is the next future puzzle to fit in the bucs outfield but what are you going to do with josh harrison.jay-hay has ignited this team since inserted into the starting lineup,he is hitting .313,hitting a home run every now and then and also plays good defense.

at this point i just don't see how you take him out of the lineup when polanco joins the club.

nutting keeps fucking around with polanco, he should've been up long ago. harrison is doing well for the time being, but he will cool off and then we'll be stuck in the same spot with shitty production from RF and no polanco.

you have to give harrison some credit already,he finally got the chance to play everyday and to some ball players thats what they need to become productive.no player wants to come off the bench their whole career and when they get a shot to play everyday its a good bet they will take advantage of it cause they might not get another

polanco > harrison. one month of production doesn't make me a believer. polanco should've been up for this series against the brewers, imo.

you may be right pal,but harrison has always filled in nicely at any position he played,and i believe he played every one except for pitcher and catcher.he has got the job done more often than not when called upon.now he has the chance to play every day and he is living up to the challenge.

by the way,ive said this since he came to the pirates,but don't locke remind you a little of tom glavine in many ways.his style is just about the same,he throws those off speed and breaking pitches just like glavine did,and he came from the braves organization also,..about the only difference may be is,glavine had a better fastball but the rest is just about the same

Right fielder Gregory Polanco continued to produce with a 2-for-6 day. The rookie has hit safely in each of his nine games, the longest streak by any Pirates player to begin a major league career, and is batting .378.
