Not sure Allard will be graded above Alexy

Possibly

Not sure Allard will be graded above Alexy

I think that is where experience might outweigh other factors. Just a guess on my part.

 

[Kelleyman]

Pirates trying to rally.

 

[Kelleyman]

And they are tied

Pirates tied it up.

Bucs leading

Pirates take the lead.

With the quickness

I would think that would leave Alexy out when there is Dunning, Allard, Hearn and Otto with more seniority.

I would think we go with 1 FA starter with Hearn, Dunning, Allard and maybe Alexy/Otto splitting the 5th starter role. Alexy be the opener 1 game and Otto the middle guy and vice versa the next game

 

[saddles]

Hope not

I wonder if Allard has an option left. That could weigh in very heavily. Of course, if they leave the FA pitchers alone, all of them could be in the rotation.

 

[saddles]

Another thing to consider is with some of the young pitchers a shuttle system will be needed to send them to AAA occasionally so their innings can be limited.

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Pirates take the lead.

As do these idiots

 

[DT LUNA]

As much as we all like seeing Adolis making plays like the one tonight, he is putting himself in position to really get injured thus hurting the team. I know he can't pick his plays and situations. Just be careful to not break something over a foul ball.

Missed it what did he do?

Made a catch that Tom Grieve does not think has ever been done. Stand by. Sure you will see it tonight.

Okay just heard him talking about it. Was it that tough a catch?

 

[DT LUNA]

Okay just heard him talking about it. Was it that tough a catch?

In my eyes yes

 

[saddles]

Pittsburgh just needs to get 3 more outs.

8-6
