as a lot of people know,i am a pirates fan but i have to comment on their recent play the last couple months.they went into the all star break playing pretty good and im not sure which it is but,they said the other night that the pirates have the best record since the break either in MLB or the NL.


which ever it is,they are doing it without the likes of mCcutchen,walker,alvarez,cole,etc and thats impressive due to having your stars of the team not playing for extended periods of time.not so much with alvarez as he is just not hitting HR's like last season and can't throw the ball to first base as he probably leads the league in errors.anyway they are playing well and have a stretch of some pretty good teams coming up so we will see how they fare in the next couple weeks,but their M.O. seems to be,struggle against the weaker teams and play well against the better teams.

Yeah, they have been playing pretty well since the All Star break. Their road record is 2nd worst in the league, though. That could use some improvement, but they are good at home. I think Texas is the only team with a worst road record and it's only by a few. It helps in games like tonight when you get to face a rookie making his MLB career start being brought up from single A Michigan I wanna say. As long as they win when i bet on them I'm happy. :103631605 Go pirates.

They've had a horrible run at the plate lately without Cutch. Plus the bullpen has been absolute garbage. Hopefully they turn it around tonight with Cutch coming back.
